HealthWise Hypnosis
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Everyone has different triggers for their particular stress-related problems. By accessing the subconscious mind, we can address underlying causes of stress and develop personalized strategies to navigate challenging situations with ease.
Through hypnosis, you can gain a greater sense of control over your emotions, develop coping mechanisms, and reframe negative thought patterns that contribute to stress. This can enhance emotional resilience and improve your ability to handle stressful situations effectively.
As a hypnotherapist, I can also equip you with various stress reduction techniques that can be used outside of therapy sessions. These techniques may include self-hypnosis, guided imagery, breathing exercises, or mindfulness practices. By incorporating these techniques into your daily routine, you can effectively manage stress and promote relaxation even outside of the therapeutic environment.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I offer a compassionate and holistic approach to managing stress, recognizing it as a universal experience with unique personal impacts. By integrating techniques such as Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing. I also emphasize the importance of exercise and nutrition as key components of stress management. Regular physical activity and a balanced diet play crucial roles in reducing stress levels, improving mental health, and enhancing overall well-being. In addition, I recommend Tai Chi and Yoga as forms of relaxing meditation in movement. Mindfulness practices encourage a present-focused awareness and acceptance of stressful feelings without judgment, while EFT provides a method to lessen emotional distress. Through CBT, we work on identifying and challenging stress-inducing thought patterns, and IFS allows clients to explore and harmonize internal conflicts. Role-playing prepares individuals for stressful interactions or situations, equipping them with strategies to remain calm and collected. My role is to support you in uncovering the root causes of your stress and to empower you with effective coping mechanisms, fostering resilience and a sense of calm in the face of life’s challenges. Together, we aim to transform your relationship with stress, enhancing your overall well-being and quality of life.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, MSW, ASW, PPSC
In navigating the complex terrain of stress, my practice takes a holistic and in-depth approach, recognizing that stress is often a surface symptom of deeper emotional, spiritual, and psychological currents. For empathetic, highly sensitive, and autistic individuals, stress doesn't merely stem from external pressures but is intricately linked to the profound experiences of self-criticism, anxiety, shame, and the overwhelming sense of responsibility for others' emotions. These experiences are compounded by challenges in setting boundaries, tendencies towards people-pleasing, perfectionism, and a deep-seated fear of disconnection, all of which can lead to a state of burnout and a feeling of being adrift from one's authentic self.
Understanding that stress can signal the soul's cry for healing, change, and a return to authenticity, my therapeutic process focuses on uncovering the root causes of stress. This involves exploring the impact of childhood trauma, the weight of ancestral grief, the struggle with navigating personal and collective awakenings, and the journey towards embracing one's true identity beyond societal and familial expectations. By addressing these foundational aspects, we engage in a transformative process aimed at reducing the immediate symptoms of stress while fostering a profound healing journey towards self-discovery, self-compassion, and empowerment.
The goal of our work together is to empower individuals to not only manage stress but to understand it as a meaningful part of their journey towards wholeness. Through developing healthier boundaries, embracing one's intrinsic worth independent of external validation, and cultivating a life in alignment with one's deepest truths, individuals can find peace, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose. This comprehensive approach to stress transcends traditional coping mechanisms, inviting a deeper engagement with life's challenges as opportunities for growth and transformation.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Before becoming a therapist, I myself was a driven professional in a high-pressure environment. Traveling constantly and 60+ hour weeks were the norm. No matter how hard I worked, it never felt like enough, which led to burnout and a lot of self-doubt. That’s when I went to see a therapist—when I knew the way I was handling work just wasn’t working. In that process, I learned a lot about the things I was doing that made a tough situation even harder on myself. I learned how to take responsibility for my part in my struggles, while setting limits with work and eventually finding a career that was more congruent with my values and celebrated what makes me ME. By rediscovering and leveraging your strengths, you can learn to enlist the resources needed to tackle your current opportunities. Building on your best qualities can drive your professional growth and get you to the next level.
