Aligned Counseling LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCMH, LPC-MHSP
Our lives seem to get more stressful as we age - we often add more to our plate instead of taking things away. We can often feel overwhelmed by our desire to do things well, or our past identity as a high achieving student, or even as a new mother trying to do the best you can. Stress doesn't mean you are doing anything wrong - it means you are experiencing a natural reaction to a busy world. In our sessions we'll work to build you a toolbox of coping strategies, find where your expectations of yourself may not be serving you, and try to find room for your wants and needs in your day to day.

Rowe Counseling Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anger, stress, anxiety, depression, all go hand-in-hand. I help individuals prevent these feelings from rising, cope with them when they do arise, and problem solve after they have recognized their feelings and their needs.

Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed in Minnesota, Tennessee
Stress can raise havoc with many areas of your life. Stress can be addressed by looking at the perspective we have about events and roles in our lives. Combining various physical responses as well as emotional and intellectual responses we can often learn to live an almost stress free life.

Stress: From Constant Pressure to Systemic Calm
Moving Out of Survival Mode and Back into Your Life
Stress is often minimized as a "part of life," but when it becomes chronic, it is a physiological and systemic crisis. It is the feeling of being permanently "on," where the minor inconveniences of life trigger a massive internal overwhelm. In my practice, we don’t just look at your "to-do" list; we look at the systemic and neurological roots of why your body has stayed in a state of high alarm.
The Architecture of Overwhelm
Chronic stress isn't just about having "too much to do"—it is about a nervous system that has lost its way back to safety. Together, we explore:
The Burnout Cycle: Addressing the "adrenal fatigue" and emotional exhaustion that come from living in the "gap" between your resources and your responsibilities.
The "Fawn" & "Freeze" Responses: Understanding how your stress might manifest as people-pleasing (fawning) to keep the peace, or a total shut down (freeze) when things get too heavy.
Demand Avoidance: Identifying how chronic stress can lead to a "rebellious" brain that avoids even simple tasks as a desperate bid for autonomy.
A Clinical Approach to Regulation
With over 20 years of experience, I use a multidimensional framework to help you lower the "baseline" of your stress:
Somatic Regulation: We focus on the "gut-brain axis" work to help your body physically exit the stress response.
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "Manager" parts of you that believe if you stop being stressed, everything will fall apart. We work to build trust so these parts can finally soften.
Systems Theory & Power: We acknowledge the external stressors—social inequity, workplace toxicity, and family dynamics—that are not "in your head," but are real systemic pressures that require boundaries rather than just "coping."
The "Healer's" Burden
I have a specialized focus on the unique stress of therapists, pastors, and medical professionals. When you are the "sturdy container" for everyone else’s crisis, your own system often pays the price in secret. I provide a confidential sanctuary to address the secondary trauma and professional pressure that leads to systemic collapse.
