Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, Over 18 years of successful experience
Stress is overwhelming and hard to escape. Having the coping skills to react differently to feel better is key. I look at the overall picture and help clients to get to the root causes of their reactions to life stressors and help them to cope with realistic techniques they can use everyday. Reach out for a free consultation to learn more about how my Holistic Approach can help you.
When it comes to stress, identifying the sources and triggers that lead to overwhelming feelings is crucial. By developing personalized strategies, I can help you manage stress effectively, improve your resilience, and find balance in your daily life.
I have years of Mindfulness study, practice and personal retreats, with many Buddhist teachers especially at the Barre Insight Meditation Society, Barre Massachusetts not far from my home. I teach Mindfulness mediation and inner awareness to all clients.
Additionally, clients learn the deeper roots to stress and ways to realign with inner stability and balance. Eckhart Tolle states that "stress is caused by being here but wanting to be there." "Access the power of NOW and know that everything is happening FOR you not to you, and stress will dissolve." Words of wisdom. Email for free consultation call.
To manage stress, I use a variety of modalities to address both external stressors and internal coping mechanisms. My goal is to build a supportive and inclusive space where you feel genuinely heard and valued. By incorporating humor and authenticity into our sessions, I strive to make our work together effective and approachable. If you’re ready to explore strategies for managing stress and improving your well-being, let’s connect and find the solutions that work best for you.
In addressing stress, I begin by identifying the sources and impacts of stress in the client's life through thorough assessment and discussion. Using evidence-based techniques such as relaxation training, mindfulness, and cognitive restructuring, I help clients develop effective coping strategies. Together, we set realistic goals and implement practical tools to manage stress levels and promote overall well-being. Regular sessions allow for ongoing support and adjustment of techniques, empowering clients to effectively navigate stress and improve their quality of life.
Stress is a given in life. Suffering is not. I help people reduce distress and overwhelm in the context of a supportive therapy relationship and the integration of stress management tools such as breathing techniques, body-awareness practices, mindfulness-based practices and cognitive/behavioral therapies.
Stress can have numerous negative effects on the body and mind, including increased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and mental health issues like anxiety and depression. It can also lead to sleep disturbances, digestive problems, and weakened immune function.
I can help people manage stress by providing a safe space to explore their feelings and develop coping strategies. Approaches such as CBT and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) can be particularly effective, as clients learn to focus on the present moment and accept their thoughts and feelings without judgment. This practice can reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being.
