Often the pressure we feel on the outside reflects something we’ve been carrying on the inside. Together we’ll slow things down enough to hear what’s underneath the stress

Stress is an unavoidable part of life, but it can become difficult to manage when your body and mind stay in a constant state of alert. You may feel tense, irritable, exhausted, distracted, emotionally reactive, or unable to relax even after the immediate stressor has passed.
My approach is both insight-oriented and practical. Drawing from Adlerian and psychodynamic therapy, we may explore how early experiences, family roles, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or beliefs about responsibility and success influence the way you respond to pressure. Sometimes current stress is intensified by older patterns, such as feeling that you must handle everything alone, avoid disappointing others, or remain productive at all times.
I also use CBT to help you identify unhelpful thinking patterns, reframe stressful situations, and separate genuine problems from catastrophic predictions. Solution-focused therapy can help us clarify what is within your control and identify realistic steps toward improving the situation.
Because stress is also physiological, we may use tools that help calm the nervous system. These can include mindfulness, guided imagery, breathing and relaxation exercises, and autogenic training, a form of self-hypnosis that uses calming mental cues and body awareness to promote relaxation.
When appropriate, I may suggest practical missions between sessions, such as setting a boundary, asking for support, changing an overwhelming routine, taking intentional breaks, or practicing a relaxation technique during moments of pressure.
My goal is not to remove every stressor from your life. It is to help you understand your stress response, recover more effectively, and face demanding situations with greater calm, flexibility, and confidence.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. While many of us strive to get rid of our stress, research in psychology shows that a life without stress if fairly boring. I enjoy helping my clients reframe some of their stressors as challenges, learning how to deal with these challenges, and having success stories to lean back on to feel inherently good about themselves. If you live in a state of constant stress, we need to re-calibrate you so your body isn't constantly swimming in cortisol!

Clients come to me with a wide variety of stressors and aim to achieve a greater sense of control and peace in their lives. I use empowerment, trauma-informed, and interpersonal neurobiology approaches to help clients understand the impact of trauma and make sustainable changes in their everyday lives.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Life is always in flux. And sometimes major life events can disrupt our equilibrium. Relocations, breakups, new family structure, career shifts, loss, health issues, and educational pursuits are just a few of the many changes that can leave us feeling unsettled, disoriented, and off-track. No matter which season of life you are in, we will explore the aspects of your transition that feel particularly challenging and work to help you acclimate, embrace, or perhaps even reevaluate this next chapter in your story.
