Stress
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are a lot of ways to look at stress. Here's a way of looking at stress that I find useful:
Stress is what happens when your body builds up energy to handle one or more situations, but ends up rallying more energy than is necessary to handle those situations well. For example, you have to do your taxes? So your body pumps out a bit of cortisol to get you focused enough to take it seriously. Great. But what happens when your body just keeps dumping cortisol till you feel overwhelmed and exhausted? That's stress.
With Somatic Experiencing, we work together to teach your body how to use just enough energy to get the job done, and then let go of that energy once the job is finished. Rally, execute, then rest. Viola, less stress.

Stress
Ryan Shannon
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
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.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
A holistic approach is helpful to identifying stressors, how to handle them, and having healthier self-talk and a healthy lifestyle. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, relaxation techniques, progressive muscle relaxation, and guided imagery can all be helpful for stress reduction. Coping skills, setting boundaries, saying no, and taking action in practical ways can help people regain control of their life and get stress under control.

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.
