Stress
Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I know from experience the toll that stress and burnout can take on your well-being, and how difficult it can be to even imagine realistic change. If you're feeling burned out, we'll take a step back and look at your values - the important parts of your life that bring you meaning. Then we'll examine where there might be a mismatch and find areas where there might be potential for change. This could involve increasing your engagement in other activities that fulfill you, removing yourself from a situation or environment that depletes you, strategically engaging with your support network, or other strategies that fit your personal experience. I don't take big decisions lightly, and if considering a major change we'll check in throughout to ensure the steps you're taking are value-consistent and take into account the full context of your needs.

Stress
Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Stress often builds gradually until it becomes a constant background state — feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stretched, mentally overactive, or unable to fully rest even when there is space to do so. Many people describe feeling like they are always “on,” managing responsibilities, emotions, and expectations without enough internal recovery time.
In therapy, we explore both the external pressures contributing to stress and the internal patterns that shape how you respond to it. From a psychodynamic and trauma-informed perspective, chronic stress is often connected to long-standing roles such as over-functioning, caretaking, perfectionism, or difficulty setting boundaries.
Rather than focusing only on stress management techniques, this work also helps you understand what your nervous system is communicating through stress symptoms. Often, stress is a signal of unmet needs, accumulated emotional load, or disconnection from internal pacing and limits.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we slow down enough to notice the body-based experience of stress; the tightness, urgency, fatigue, or shutdown, and begin to relate to it with awareness rather than override it. This allows space for regulation and new internal choices to emerge.
Over time, clients often experience greater capacity to rest, clearer boundaries, and a more sustainable rhythm in daily life.

Stress
Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Stress doesn’t always follow the rules—it shows up in productivity crashes at work, emotional overloads at home, or misalignment in relationships. At my practice, I work with minds that don’t always “fit in the box,” helping you translate intensity, deep processing, or divergent focus into practical strategies. Together, we’ll build tools you can use under pressure—so that your thinking style becomes a resource, not an obstacle, across every area of your life.

Renton is a King County city south of Seattle home to Boeing's 737 final assembly lines, and an increasingly diverse suburban community that has grown rapidly as housing costs in Seattle and Bellevue have pushed residents further south. The mental health landscape reflects both the occupational stresses of high-precision aerospace manufacturing—particularly given Boeing's high-profile quality and safety challenges in recent years—and the identity and community challenges of rapid demographic change, with significant Vietnamese-American, Somali, East African, and other immigrant communities finding housing more accessible here than in the city. Valley Medical Center's behavioral health programs and a growing private therapy sector serve the community. Common therapy concerns include aerospace manufacturing workplace stress, immigrant and refugee mental health, economic anxiety as housing costs rise, and the challenges of building community in a rapidly changing suburban landscape.
