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.

Rebecca Dudley
Psychologist, PhD
I provide a warm, personable, focused, and judgment-free space to work through presenting problems and find effective solutions. Each client has different needs, so I will meet you where you are, metaphorically, to help you feel and function better. I have a large "tool kit" of cognitive and behavioral tools to pull from so that we can collaboratively determine an individualized approach to treatment based on what we determine works best for you. Life is hard right now, with stressors and change presenting from virtually everywhere. I frequently work with individuals struggling with stress, and treatment often focuses on changing one's relationship with stress and learning different strategies to manage it more effectively.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Change is stress and when stress becomes overwhelming, it inhibits change. It's a difficult cycle and not getting stuck in it requires skills to lessen your stress and improve coping so that the changes you are seeking, or the changes being asked of or put upon you, don't attack at your confidence and understanding of yourself.

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.
