Stress is a reaction that people go through in response to situations, thoughts, or emotions. Many things can trigger stress, such as work, family, illness, relationships, or existential concerns. Stress also can be a good thing, such as when a person receives a new job opportunity, or they’re about to become a parent. When people experience large amounts of stress, their physical and mental health can suffer if they don’t care for themselves.
Available Treatment Options
Stress is a factor in nearly all mental health concerns, so it’s no wonder there are many counseling interventions to address stress. Therapists work with each person to assess their stress level and establish coping mechanisms that work for them. Alleviating stress can also decrease the negative effects of mental health concerns, working to improve the overall quality of life.

Together, we can identify where you struggle and where you can draw strength. I woul...

It can be difficult to make sense of and find meaning in our life experiences. Therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings to better understand and find solutions to life situations.

I often say that my job as a therapist is to hold up the mirror so that you can see yourself with objectivity and free of judgement. Sometimes when looking in that mirror we don't like what is reflected back to us. Our perceptions may be distorted or the way we portray ourselves to the world around us may not be authentic to our true selves. I aspire to help you identify, define and refine that...
