Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Stress is a common reason that people seek out therapy. Depending on the situation, we may explore life changes you can make to reduce your environmental stress, we may apply coping skills and/or nervous system regulation tools to manage unavoidable stress, and we will most certainly work with mindfulness as a basis for understanding your reaction and helping alleviate your stress. I provide education as needed about the stress cycle and how to interrupt it in order to live a more peaceful, vibrant, and enjoyable life, even amidst the inevitable ups and downs of this amazing roller coaster of life.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When we do not listen to our stress response, our mental/physical health can get affected. This can contribute to relationship conflicts, burnout, increased depression, anxiety, and overall poor quality of life. If you lead a life with multiple roles (as most of us do), such as parent, child, caregiver, employee, friend, etc., you may benefit from learning how to manage your stress by increasing your self-care and setting boundaries.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When we feel bogged down by stress, it’s often difficult to get the same sense of enjoyment we once received from life’s simple pleasures, hobbies, and social engagements. A sense of guilt sometimes follows any effort to honor ourselves with self-care activities, a guilt that says “you should be doing…” or asks “is this really the best use of your time?”
Therapy can be the place to examine the root of the criticism, the values in the decisions you’re making, and to work through the mental, emotional and physical exhaust that so frequently comes with stress. We’ll cater our approach to precisely what your current experience is, considering how you’ve overcome past experiences of stress, as well.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Stress and anxiety are close cousins. Without either, much wouldn't get done. However sometimes stress becomes overwhelming and unrelenting, turning into toxic stress and even leading to trauma responses. I utilize an integrated approach incorporating parts work, EMDR therapy, mindfulness and CBT to help clients explore parts of them triggered by the stressors, meet needs and access empowerment to affect change where needed in one's life.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Chronic stress can quietly erode your sense of balance and well-being, especially for individuals who carry high levels of responsibility at work or in their personal lives. Many high-achieving adults become accustomed to operating in constant pressure or overdrive. In therapy we explore the deeper patterns behind chronic stress while helping your nervous system shift out of constant alert so you can experience greater clarity, steadiness, and resilience.

Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Chronic stress can feel relentless, causing your mind to spiral, keeping your body tense and on edge, and leaving you exhausted or overwhelmed. Often, stress is fueled by high expectations, an overwhelming mental to-do list, or the pressure to control too much at once. Over time, this can drain your energy, strain relationships, and make everyday life feel heavy.
In therapy with me, we’ll explore how these patterns take hold, learn practical ways to quiet the mind and reset the nervous system, let go of the pressure, and confidently navigate challenges. Together, we’ll create space for clarity, steadiness, and a more sustainable way of living.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When Stress Becomes Your Normal
You may be holding everything together — work, relationships, family — but inside, you feel stretched thin. Your mind is racing, your sleep is off, and no matter how much you get done, it never feels like enough. Maybe your body has started to show the strain too — headaches, fatigue, tension, or constant restlessness.
Stress is your body’s way of saying something needs care. When it becomes chronic, it can leave you feeling anxious, irritable, or disconnected from what once brought joy.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you calm your nervous system and regain a sense of balance. Together, we’ll:
Identify the thoughts and habits that keep your stress cycle running
Build emotional tools to manage pressure without burning out
Learn how to pause and reset your body’s “threat mode” using neuroscience-based skills
Strengthen your boundaries and reconnect with what truly matters to you
Replace overthinking and self-criticism with clarity and confidence
Our work combines practical tools, humor, and self-compassion — because healing from stress isn’t about doing more, it’s about learning how to do less with more presence and peace.
I BELIEVE:
Your stress is not a personal failure — it’s a signal asking for understanding, not judgment.
Balance isn’t something you find; it’s something you build, moment by moment.
You can be both ambitious and grounded, productive and peaceful.
Boundaries are acts of self-respect, not selfishness.
You deserve a life that feels manageable, meaningful, and your own.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Life is stressful. Sometimes everything comes tumbling down at once. Problems at work, in relationships with friends, family, or neighbors, or in encountering illness. Major source of difficulty especially these days is how financial setbacks can make living life freely and joyfully seem impossible. Prolonged stress can lead to or worsen physical illness and cause psychological imbalance. Among the possibilities, a solutions-focused approach can be helpful in slowly tackling the unwelcome practical burdens that life presents.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
In today's fast-paced world, stress has become an almost ubiquitous part of daily life. While some stress can be beneficial, motivating individuals to meet deadlines or perform at their best, chronic stress can have detrimental effects on both mental and physical health. Hypnotherapy, a therapeutic practice that utilizes the power of suggestion and visualization, offers a unique and effective method for managing stress. By addressing the underlying psychological triggers of stress and promoting relaxation and positive thinking, hypnotherapy can help individuals achieve a more balanced and harmonious state of mind.
