Stress
Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I don't describe myself so much as a talk therapist as a nervous system therapist. Stress, both chronic and short-term, can have substantial impacts on our health, relationships, and effectiveness. I primarily utilized approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and other stress reduction techniques to help better balance the relationship between your mind, nervous system, and the environment.

Stress
Marcus A. McDuffie Sr.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW-S, BCD
I’m especially interested in helping people who struggle with stress and feeling overwhelmed, whether it shows up as constant worry, irritability, burnout, trouble relaxing, difficulty sleeping, racing thoughts, tension in your body, or feeling like you’re always trying to keep up. Therapy can be a safe and supportive place where you can explore what’s contributing to your stress and learn healthier ways to manage pressure, set boundaries, communicate your needs, prioritize what matters, and cope with challenges more calmly and effectively. The aim isn’t to eliminate stress completely, but to help you understand it, respond to it in healthier ways, and build more balance, resilience, and overall well-being.
I also have experience with depression, anxiety, working with couples and families, dealing with grief and loss, work and career issues, PTSD and trauma-focused therapy, ADHD, anger management, and many other therapeutic issues. My goal is to offer compassionate, personalized care that helps you understand yourself better, use your strengths, and make lasting changes.

Stress
Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Hello! While I may not know your unique stress, I do know how that humans have the capacity to break through the chains of stressful situations with clarity and commitment to their best selves. Even if we don't achieve the exact goal we want, we can learn to live with our culture's chronic stress in softer ways. We can leave victimhood and empower ourselves to find solace within.
I faced seasons that tested everything I thought I knew. Healing from a narcissistic relationship, navigating a challenging postpartum year, grieving the loss of my mother, and embracing unexpected changes in identity all stressed me out greatly. These experiences, combined with years of dedicated study and personal reflection, have deepened both my compassion and my understanding of the healing process. We can lessen stress when we get really honest about what we cannot control and what we do have choices about. It's hard to face, so let's face it together and find some peace.

Stress
Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and the demands of daily life. Stress can come from many sources, including work pressure, relationships, health concerns, caregiving responsibilities, or ongoing life changes. Over time, chronic stress can affect mood, sleep, concentration, and emotional connection with others.
In therapy, we focus on identifying what is contributing to your stress and how it is showing up in your body, thoughts, and relationships. I help clients develop practical tools to manage stress more effectively, set healthier boundaries, and create space for rest and balance. This may include learning how to slow down, respond more intentionally, and prioritize what matters most.
The goal of our work is not to eliminate stress entirely, but to help you feel more capable and grounded as you navigate challenges. With support, many clients find they are better able to manage demands, improve relationships, and feel more present in their daily lives.
