What chronic stress can look like
Trouble sleeping, a short fuse, headaches and tension, feeling behind no matter how much you do. Chronic stress builds quietly until your body and relationships start paying the bill. If 'busy' has become your baseline, it doesn't have to stay that way.
Stress Management
How therapy helps
We identify where the pressure is actually coming from — workload, boundaries, expectations you've inherited — and build practical skills to change it: saying no without guilt, calming your body's stress response, and structuring your time around what matters.
Practical, skills-based therapy for chronic stress and overwhelm. Build boundaries and coping skills with therapists in Evanston, Naperville, or online across Illinois.
