Stress
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Stress is an undeniable and unavoidable part of life. So trying to avoid stressful situations entirely is not a good solution. But what we can do is learn to manage stress effectively. This can involve learning some of the many stress management techniques, of course, but it also needs to involve a shift in what we could call mental attitude, approach, or even how we habitually tend to perceive reality. When I work with people who are often stressed, I am very interested in helping them to understand how their habits of perceiving reality contribute to their feelings of stress and overwhelm. Once this is understood, stress management becomes much easier.

Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals rework the sources of chronic stress to achieve a steadier and more livable rhythm in life. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—overload, competing demands, and the meanings driving urgency—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less tension and spinning, more clarity, choice, and the capacity to meet demands without losing yourself.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Addressing stress in therapy involves a proactive and holistic approach aimed at addressing the various physical, emotional, and cognitive components of stress. Through evidence-based techniques such as mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), relaxation training, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I assist clients in identifying stressors, developing coping strategies, and fostering resilience. By creating a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic environment, I empower clients to explore underlying causes of stress and implement practical tools to manage it effectively. My specialized expertise enables me to guide clients toward achieving a healthier balance, enhancing overall well-being, and cultivating long-term stress management skills.

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.
