Stress Therapy in MinneapolisReclaim Your Calm and Clarity

​

Sometimes, it feels like there’s no off switch. You keep pushing, keep going, keep coping, but the pressure never lets up. Chronic stress can wear down your body, mind, and spirit. At MF Therapy, PLLC, I offer a compassionate space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. You don’t have to do it all on your own.

What Stress Can Feel Like

You might be:

• Constantly overwhelmed, even by “small” things

• Struggling to focus, rest, or slow down

• Snapping at people you care about or shutting down completely

• Holding tension in your body or experiencing unexplained fatigue

• Feeling like you're always behind, no matter how hard you try

• Living in survival mode, with no room for joy or peace

Stress isn’t just “too much on your plate” it’s how your body responds to feeling under threat, pressured, or unsupported. And over time, it can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, and disconnection.

​

A Person-Centered, Nervous System Aware Approach

At MF Therapy, PLLC, I don’t just offer tools to “manage” stress. I create space to understand what your stress is trying to tell you and how to meet it with care, not control.

Our work is:

• Person-Centered: You set the pace and priorities. I follow your lead with curiosity, not pressure.

• Relational: Stress often stems from relational, cultural, or systemic expectations. Therapy is a place to unpack those with support.

• Nervous System-Informed: Chronic stress lives in the body. I incorporate grounding and somatic awareness to help your system feel safe again.

• Trauma-Informed: If stress feels more like survival mode, we’ll work gently with the deeper roots that may be beneath the surface.

• You don’t need to become more productive, you deserve to feel more whole.

What We Can Explore in Therapy for Stress

Depending on your experience, therapy might support you in:

• Understanding your stress patterns and triggers

• Learning how to respond to overwhelm with compassion instead of self-criticism

• Releasing internalized beliefs around perfectionism, productivity, or pressure

• Developing boundaries around your time, energy, and emotional labor

• Healing from burnout, trauma, or chronic over-functioning

• Reconnecting with your body, rest, and what actually nourishes you

Stress is a signal, not a flaw. Together, we’ll listen to what it’s trying to say.
