First I would make sure she doesn't have an infection. Stress can lead to inflammation in the bladder which can lead to an infection or inappropriate urination. I would also add feliway diffusers throughout your house. Feliway is a cat pheromone used to help calm cats. It doesn't work on everyone. I would also add extra litter boxes around the house especially in the area when she is urinating the most. Finally, if this doesn't help and she doesn't have a UTI, I would talk to your vet about starting her on an anti-anxiety medicine like amitryptilline. I hope this helps!
