Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I would assist individuals grappling with stress by initially aiding them in identifying and comprehending the origins of their stressors. We would delve into any underlying emotional disturbances, trauma-related triggers, or relationship issues that contribute to their stress levels. Employing therapeutic methods such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I would facilitate the process of challenging negative thought patterns and fostering effective coping strategies for stress management. Moreover, I would provide guidance in implementing relaxation techniques, mindfulness exercises, and boundary-setting skills to alleviate stress and enhance emotional well-being. The goal is to address the fundamental emotional and relational factors while equipping them with practical coping mechanisms, ultimately enhancing their ability to manage stress and improve overall quality of life.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Unresolved stress can really hit hard for folks dealing with addictions, relationship bumps, or depression. Take work stress, for example. When it piles up, some people might turn to alcohol or drugs to deal, which can lead to addiction struggles. Others might notice their relationships start to strain as they try to handle all the pressure. And to top it off, high stress levels can make depression symptoms even worse, making it tough to handle everyday stuff. If someone's going through major stress, I'd aim to create a safe space for them to chat about what's going on. We'd talk about ways to cope that don't involve substances, like exercise or spending time with friends.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in stress management, my approach to treatment is focused on empowering individuals to build resilience and develop effective coping strategies. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and relaxation techniques, I help clients identify sources of stress, challenge negative thought patterns, and learn to respond to stressors in healthier ways. By cultivating self-awareness and teaching skills such as time management, problem-solving, and assertive communication, I support individuals in managing their stressors proactively. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, such as regular exercise, adequate sleep, and engaging in activities that bring joy and fulfillment. My goal is to equip individuals with the tools they need to navigate life's challenges with greater ease, resilience, and overall well-being.
