Stress
Wendy Jensen LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Hypnotherapist, Diplomate Comprehensive Energy Psychology
Nearly half of women report a rise in stress levels over the past five years. And while women and men tend to cope with stress differently, we know that chronic stress contributes to a range of health problems in both sexes, including mental health disorders, heart disease and obesity, depression, anxiety, low sex drive, memory and concentration problems, headaches, upset stomach, lack of focus, lack of energy and mood swings.
Stress can be a motivator, and it can even be essential to survival. The body’s fight-or-flight mechanism tells a person when and how to respond to danger. However, when the body becomes triggered too easily, or there are too many stressors at one time, it can undermine a person’s mental and physical health and become harmful.
Stress is the body’s natural defense against predators and danger. It causes the body to flood with hormones that prepare its systems to evade or confront danger. People commonly refer to this as the fight-or-flight mechanism.
Managing stress calls for addressing the mind as well as the body, since both the brain and body contribute to symptoms. In my practice, I employ a variety of stress busting techniques derived from energy psychology including acupoint tapping, EMDR, Regenerating Images in Memory (RIM), guided meditation and exercises such as tai chi and qi gong movements meant to disapate stuck energy from the body.

When Stress Becomes Your Normal
You may be holding everything together — work, relationships, family — but inside, you feel stretched thin. Your mind is racing, your sleep is off, and no matter how much you get done, it never feels like enough. Maybe your body has started to show the strain too — headaches, fatigue, tension, or constant restlessness.
Stress is your body’s way of saying something needs care. When it becomes chronic, it can leave you feeling anxious, irritable, or disconnected from what once brought joy.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you calm your nervous system and regain a sense of balance. Together, we’ll:
Identify the thoughts and habits that keep your stress cycle running
Build emotional tools to manage pressure without burning out
Learn how to pause and reset your body’s “threat mode” using neuroscience-based skills
Strengthen your boundaries and reconnect with what truly matters to you
Replace overthinking and self-criticism with clarity and confidence
Our work combines practical tools, humor, and self-compassion — because healing from stress isn’t about doing more, it’s about learning how to do less with more presence and peace.
I BELIEVE:
Your stress is not a personal failure — it’s a signal asking for understanding, not judgment.
Balance isn’t something you find; it’s something you build, moment by moment.
You can be both ambitious and grounded, productive and peaceful.
Boundaries are acts of self-respect, not selfishness.
You deserve a life that feels manageable, meaningful, and your own.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Stress
Linda Schartman, MA LPC
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
In the U.S., the focus on hustle culture and economic pressures create toxic stress. I can help you sort through what level and types of activity fill your cup, or replenish your supply of spoons such that your life is sustainable. Also, we will talk about how to modulate stress exposure over time based on our needs.

Stress
Michael Pollet
Registered Social Worker, CSWA
Our work starts by acknowledging the social, cultural, and environmental conditions that may contribute to the problems that affect your quality of life and capacity to receive or engage in mental health care. Therapy is tailored to your preferences to minimize stressors and build skills for interacting more effectively with the outside world. The behaviors, emotions, relationship patterns, or self-beliefs that no longer work for you can be transformed, rather than pathologized by identifying external power imbalances that impede quality of life and highlighting the good intentions behind difficult interactions.
