Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Chronic stress can feel like carrying an invisible weight—especially for endurance athletes juggling high training loads, work, family, and recovery. You might notice it in tight shoulders, racing thoughts that won’t quiet, irritability that spills into relationships, trouble sleeping, or that constant “wired but tired” feeling that makes even easy runs feel hard. Over time, unmanaged stress can weaken your immune system, sap motivation, and increase risk of burnout or injury.
In our work together, we create a personalized plan to understand your unique stress triggers and build sustainable ways to respond. Using CBT to reframe overwhelming thoughts, DBT skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation, ACT to align actions with your values, and movement-informed strategies that leverage running as a tool for regulation, we focus on practical tools that fit your busy life.
Many clients experience meaningful relief such as:
Lower overall stress levels and better recovery between hard efforts.
Improved sleep, energy, and immune function.
Stronger boundaries and ability to say “no” without guilt.
Greater calm and focus both on and off the trails.
More consistent training and enjoyment of the sport they love.
I regularly share helpful resources like the Self-Care Assessment, Distress Tolerance Coping Skills (DBT), and the distress scale tool so you can track progress and have go-to strategies between sessions.
You don’t have to power through stress alone. With the right tools, you can reduce its hold, protect your health and performance, and create space for the strong, balanced life you want. Let’s work together so stress stops running you—so you can finish stronger every day.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Modern life is full—often too full. Between work, relationships, family, health, and the constant buzz of the world around us, stress can pile up until you’re running on fumes and wondering how much longer you can keep juggling everything.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or stuck in constant “go” mode, you're not alone—and you don’t have to white-knuckle your way through it. With nearly two decades of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help clients untangle the roots of their stress and find tools that actually work (and are sustainable, not just “take a bubble bath and hope for the best”).
I use a mix of mindfulness-based strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Polyvagal Theory, and compassion-focused approaches to help you slow down, breathe, and reconnect to what truly matters. Together, we’ll shift from just surviving to building a more grounded, intentional way of living—even when life is demanding.
You’re allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to need support. And yes, you’re allowed to put yourself on your own to-do list.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
Chronic stress in men often shows up as anger, anxiety, sleep disruption, or compulsive coping rather than conscious overwhelm. I help men whose nervous systems stay stuck in high gear due to pressure, trauma, or unrealistic internal demands. Therapy focuses on restoring regulation and control so stress no longer dictates behavior or relationships.

Dr. Yuye Zhang
Psychologist, PhD, MSW
When stress becomes chronic, simply taking a break may not be enough. I work with adults experiencing overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, perfectionism, and the pressure to continually meet demanding expectations. Therapy can help you understand both the internal and external sources of your stress, develop greater psychological flexibility, and create a more sustainable way of moving through life.
