Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Stress is often normalized to the point that people stop questioning it. You’re expected to keep going, keep producing, keep showing up—no matter how much you’re carrying. But a lot of what we call “stress” is actually chronic overload. Unrealistic expectations. Systems that demand more than they give. Lives that don’t have enough space built into them to actually sustain the pace. So you push through, adapt, and hold it together—while your body, your focus, and your capacity start to wear down.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t treat stress like something you just need to manage better. We challenge it. We look at what’s actually creating the pressure—your environment, your roles, your patterns, and the broader systems you’re operating within. From there, we actively work with you to shift what’s within your control and build supports that actually hold. That might mean setting boundaries that disrupt expectations, restructuring how you approach your time and energy, regulating your nervous system, or rethinking what you’ve been taught is “normal.” We also name the cultural narratives that glorify burnout and over-functioning, so you’re not internalizing something that was never sustainable to begin with. This is about helping you move out of constant survival mode and into a way of living that actually works for you.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’re the person everyone else leans on—the fixer, the reliable one, the person who can keep 47 plates spinning even when everything feels like it’s on fire. But the stress you carry quietly can feel incredibly heavy, even if you don’t always let it show. Dr. Shields understands that pressure firsthand—she’s walked through the fire herself. Blending evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and practical, honest-to-goodness boundary-setting, she’ll help you figure out what’s fueling your stress, how to genuinely lower the volume on it, and (finally!) let yourself exhale and feel like you again.

Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Stress can stem from success, responsibility, and the quiet pressure to hold everything together. Whether you're managing professional burnout, caregiving demands, or the cumulative toll of perfectionism and overcommitment, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you recalibrate and restore balance.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Behavioral Activation to address both the physiological and psychological dimensions of stress. We’ll identify the patterns that drive chronic tension, explore values-based decision-making, and develop practical tools to reduce overwhelm and increase resilience. For clients navigating high-stakes environments, I also offer strategic support for workflow optimization, sleep hygiene, and emotional regulation.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly managing stress behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that supports both immediate relief and long-term sustainability.

Robin Wellington
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A, RYT-500, CTP, CSTFP
When working with stress, I help clients understand how ongoing pressure can affect both the mind and nervous system. Chronic stress often shows up as tension, irritability, overwhelm, or difficulty slowing down. Together we explore the sources of stress while building practical tools for nervous system regulation, mindfulness, and greater balance so you can respond to life’s demands with more calm, clarity, and resilience.
