Catriona Schmidt
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, NCC, National Certified Counselor
Experiencing periods of stress, instability and change are expected during life, although can feel uncomfortable and often intolerable. In my practice, I like to help clients process challenges and adversity through a broader lens of self care and wellness. Addressing sleep, nutrition, exercise and movement, socialization, and friendships are incorporated in treatment.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults managing stress, overwhelm, and life pressures, helping clients understand how stress affects their body, mind, and relationships. I focus on building awareness of triggers, developing coping strategies, and strengthening emotional resilience.
I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to help clients regulate their nervous system, improve focus, and navigate challenges with greater calm and confidence. Therapy emphasizes practical tools, self-compassion, and personalized strategies to reduce overwhelm and support sustainable balance in daily life.

Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include stress management, chronic stress, burnout, workplace stress, emotional regulation, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who are experiencing chronic stress, overwhelm, or burnout from work, relationships, or life transitions. Many clients come to therapy feeling exhausted, anxious, or stuck in cycles of tension and fatigue that interfere with daily functioning. My approach is collaborative, practical, and trauma-informed, helping clients identify stress triggers, develop coping strategies, and build resilience. Therapy is a supportive space to process challenges, restore balance, and cultivate tools that help you manage stress effectively while improving overall well-being.

Providence is home to Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), and Providence College — together generating significant student mental health demand and a creative, intellectually engaged population that views therapy favorably and tends toward longer-term, exploratory work. The city has a large Cape Verdean and Latino community, with a significant Guatemalan and Dominican population that creates demand for culturally affirming, Spanish-speaking therapists who understand the particular dynamics of immigrant family life in New England. Rhode Island Hospital and the Brown University Health system provide institutional mental health resources, while Brown's Warren Alpert Medical School maintains important psychiatric training programs. Providence's arts and hospitality economy creates consistent demand for therapists experienced with creative identity, economic precarity, and the mental health challenges of artists and performers.
