Stress Resiliency Program

Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or burnt out?
 
You’re not alone. Chronic stress affects sleep, mood, digestion, energy, hormones and overall health.
 
This 5-week program is designed to help you understand your stress, calm your nervous system, and create lasting resilience using evidenced-based integrative medicine tools.

​What is a Group Medical Visit (GMV)?

• A shared medical appointment where patients with similar health goals meet with a clinician to receive medical guidance, education, and support in a collaborative setting.
• Each weekly session includes focused education, a private 1:1 assessment, practical tools, and community support.
• All sessions are considered medical visits and are billed through insurance. Copays may apply, depending on your insurance.

 
Who is this program for?

• This program is a great fit if you experience: chronic stress, burnout, anxiety, insomnia, stress-related digestive issues, chronic pain, chronic fatigue and other stress-related symptoms.
• You do not need a specific diagnosis, just a desire to improve
