Stress
Humble Steps Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, APHSW-C
Chronic Stress acts as a constant drain on your vitality, frequently manifesting as physical fatigue, insomnia, headaches or emotional exhaustion. In our work together, we will treat stress as a real-time physiological response that requires physical, somatic release rather than just cognitive management. By learning to recognize and honor your body's early warning signs, you will develop the capacity to complete the stress cycle and find genuine rest.

Maia Leslie
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CCTP-II, NATC
Is stress taking a toll on your well-being, affecting your physical health, relationships, and overall quality of life? Stress is a common and often overwhelming experience, but it doesn't have to control your life. Imagine a life where stress is no longer a barrier to your happiness and well-being. I will empower you to regain control over your reactions to stressors through the development of mindfulness, relaxation, and stress reduction techniques. Together, we will embark on a journey to restore equilibrium, enhance overall well-being, and embrace a more relaxed, balanced, and fulfilling life.

Stress
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Stress can overwhelm both body and mind, leaving clients feeling reactive, depleted, or shut down. I help clients understand how stress cycles work in the nervous system and how to move through them rather than stay stuck in overdrive. My approach draws on IFS, mindfulness, somatic awareness, relaxation training, and experiential techniques to calm the body, regulate emotion, and create sustainable coping strategies. Attachment and narrative perspectives further support reframing meaning and building long-term resilience. I also provide diagnostic assessment and clarity to distinguish stress from underlying anxiety or mood disorders.

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
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.
