Stress
Brian Swope
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.

Stress
Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Stress and worries can be overwhelming and can impact our daily functioning at times. I draw upon Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to explore how our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are all reciprocally related. This allows us to examine what changes we can make that will produce significant reduction in stress levels.

Stress
Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to treating stress is rooted in evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on understanding the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop healthier ways of responding to challenging situations. Through use of practical techniques such as cognitive reframing, problem-solving, and relaxation strategies, clients learn to manage stress more effectively and build resilience. The goal is to create lasting changes that promote a greater sense of calm, balance, and control in daily life.

Stress
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Is It Stress or Burnout?
You keep telling yourself you're fine. You power through. You handle everything. But your body is tense, your mind won’t stop racing, you forget details, have brain fog, and the smallest things make you feel like you're about to snap. This isn’t just a rough week, this is chronic stress, and it's likely an indication that you are burned out. High-functioning stress looks like success on the outside, but chaos on the inside.
I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed psychologist, certified coach, and expert in burnout recovery and stress resilience for high-achieving women. With over 20 years of experience, I help women who are secretly drowning: managing careers, caregiving, parenting, and/or navigating a toxic relationship while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and emotionally depleted.
If you've been stuck in survival mode for months (or years), it’s time to take your stress seriously.
Common signs you're beyond just “stressed”:
Exhausted but can't sleep
Wired and tired at the same time
Overthinking, rumination, or anxiety spirals
Short fuse with people you love
Guilt for resting or saying no
Feeling numb, emotionally flat, or disconnected
Chronic tension, headaches, gut issues, or brain fog
Never feeling “caught up” no matter how much you do
This isn’t weakness. This is nervous system overload and it’s your body’s way of asking for help.
Stress does not have to rule your life, there is a better way. Reach out today to find solution focused strategies that get you back to living the life you deserve.
Stress is not just a part of life. It’s a signal. And when it’s chronic, it’s dangerous.
Let’s stop dismissing your symptoms—and start your healing.
You don’t need to keep coping. You need to recover.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC

We work with adults, adolescents, and professionals to build coping skills, emotional regulation, and self-care practices, while fostering clarity, balance, and sustainable habits. Therapy focuses on practical tools for managing daily pressures, navigating transitions, and reclaiming a sense of control and calm.

Stress
Kennedy Balian
Pre-Licensed Professional
When stress builds up, it can start to feel like you are always behind, always overwhelmed, and never fully able to breathe. It can affect your mood, sleep, motivation, and relationships, even when you are doing your best. I help clients slow down, identify what is fueling the stress, and learn tools that actually fit real life. Together, we can work on coping skills, boundaries, and nervous system regulation so you can feel more steady and less like you are just surviving.

Stress
New U by Design, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, SFW, LPC
Do you tense up when that phone call or text comes in? What are you telling yourself? Perhaps you are telling yourself that it is more work to do and that you are unappreciated. Perhaps we assume the person on the other end of the line wants something or is upset with us. Why do we focus on the negatives? Because it is easy. Why does it feel funny or awkward to tell ourselves positive messages, but not the negative messages. Next time that phone rings, tell yourself "I have the opportunity to help someone today."
