Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Stress can have you feeling burned out, on edge, anxious, irritable or highly reactive. Whatever the cause, especially when there are multiple sources of stress, your nervous system can chronically burn on overdrive, disrupting your sleep and interfering in relationships, job performance and life satisfaction. Even with multiple sources of pressure on you, therapy can help you learn to create external boundaries by limiting what you take on, and internal boundaries by holding all that pressure at arms length, and managing stress in ways that allow you to access a sense of calm in the storm. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from self-sabotaging patterns, and help you manage stress and build the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
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.

Elaine Barrington
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Stress is managed by knowing our own capacity and limitations. As a mindfulness facilitator I often bring these techniques into my work with clients and focus on the 3 As - Acknowledgement, Allowance, and Acceptance. My favorite Zen proverb is "If you understand, things are just as they are. If you don't understand, things are just as they are." You may not be able to change your circumstances, but you can change how you relate to them and that usually changes everything. With clients I explore where change is possible and where acceptance is the change that is needed for equanimity.

Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Chronic stress often develops when the demands of work, leadership, or creative output remain high for long periods of time. Many founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals live in a constant state of pressure where the nervous system rarely has the opportunity to slow down. Through trauma-informed therapy and nervous system regulation, we work to understand the patterns driving overwork and burnout so you can respond to stress with greater steadiness, clearer thinking, and sustainable energy.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Stress is not simply an individual experience. It is often shaped by the cumulative demands of work, caregiving, relationships, marginalization, systemic pressures, trauma, chronic illness, and the pace of modern life.
My approach focuses on understanding stress through a nervous-system-centered lens. Together, we explore the patterns, expectations, environments, and survival strategies contributing to overwhelm while developing practical and sustainable ways to support regulation, resilience, rest, and wellbeing. Therapy creates space not only for coping, but also for examining whether the demands being placed upon you are truly sustainable.

Julie Levin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Having a difficult family member is sooooo stressful - especially if you live with them. Even the sound of their voice may set your teeth on edge. You may try really hard to maintain your composure, to be kind, understanding that they are not well. But the constant strain takes a toll. And, if you are responsible for the care of someone who is uncooperative or defiant, then you may be at your wits end. Together we can explore strategies of calming your nervous system. More than that, we can listen to the messages that stress is trying to send you and see if there are realistic ways to prioritize your own needs for peace, rest, calm, and joy.

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.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and the demands of daily life. Stress can come from many sources, including work pressure, relationships, health concerns, caregiving responsibilities, or ongoing life changes. Over time, chronic stress can affect mood, sleep, concentration, and emotional connection with others.
In therapy, we focus on identifying what is contributing to your stress and how it is showing up in your body, thoughts, and relationships. I help clients develop practical tools to manage stress more effectively, set healthier boundaries, and create space for rest and balance. This may include learning how to slow down, respond more intentionally, and prioritize what matters most.
The goal of our work is not to eliminate stress entirely, but to help you feel more capable and grounded as you navigate challenges. With support, many clients find they are better able to manage demands, improve relationships, and feel more present in their daily lives.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I work with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. Individual psychotherapy helps clients deal with particular issues, symptoms, and stressors. My goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental space for you to explore who you are, how you relate to others, and what supports you on your journey to become your best self. I lean into, listen, understand, and enhance authentic expression. Together we create a collaborative process of transformation. What that means and what that looks like is different for everyone...
I offer evidence-based therapies from a curious, nonjudgmental philosophy. No matter where you have been, evidence-based therapies focus on changing the now. I strive to help my clients experience the world mindfully, and in accordance with their personal values. Through our work in cultivating an affirming, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I provide support while we collaboratively deconstruct what is causing distress in your life and preventing you from being your most effective and authentic self. Individual therapy facilitates insight and growth, becoming more effective at actualizing your values, and building more authentic relationships with yourself and with others.
While there are many forms of therapy you can pursue, my expertise is in time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders, and third wave CBT such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness based interventions. (I do have experience in, and practice, an eclectic arrangement of other modalities as well-- when applicable or specifically requested.) We explore thoughts, beliefs, and understanding, while also prioritizing behavioral processes that focus on your contexts and the functions of how you relate to your internal experiences. CBT is designed to help individuals notice and shift their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to get relief from painful emotions such as anxiety and sadness.
Third wave interventions also promote well-being through developing coping skills, personal values, and metacognition that complement traditional CBT interventions. I provide flexible, customizable approaches that look different with each patient. I empower my clients to discover their strength, clarity, creativity, autonomy, resilience, motivation, and confidence in meeting whatever happens next. I provide individualized tools to use in everyday decision-making that will help those changes last. With these modalities I treat individuals who are impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship distress, burnout, divorce, loss, uncertainty, stigma, and other life experiences, diagnoses, and stressors. We explore the sources, experiences, and beliefs that impact how you relate with the world and implement change in your life. You are the expert on you, but are you your most effective and content self?

Riverside is home to UC Riverside and is the economic and cultural hub of the Inland Empire — a vast suburban region east of Los Angeles where high housing costs, long commutes, and economic pressures create distinct mental health challenges for a predominantly working- and middle-class population. The city has a significant Latino and Black population, and bilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve important access roles in communities where language and cultural fit are barriers to mainstream mental health services. Riverside University Health System provides institutional mental health resources for one of California's largest and fastest-growing counties. UC Riverside's psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community, though the Inland Empire as a whole remains underserved relative to coastal California metros.
