Chris 'Bucky' Bateman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Stress is one of the most common reasons people seek therapy, and one of the most underestimated. Chronic stress erodes relationships, health, and the ability to be present for what matters most. We help clients identify the sources of their stress, develop sustainable coping strategies, and make the practical and emotional changes needed to actually feel better, not just cope better.

Please see any of the other entries. Stress is such a word that sometimes does a lot of heavy lifting in our world. Stress can mean brief experiences of sensory or cognitive overload, or could be an expression of anxiety, other health challenge impacting mental health. It could result from just not having language or a sense of space where one is accepted and can belong available to talk about one's challenge. Generally, if it's not CPTSD related there are lots of great ways to sort through overload and growth with working with inner feelings. If it's CPTSD and DID or other CPTSD based, parts work or other neurodevelopmentally supportive care might help. If it's oppression based or chronic health based, then it may help to share about the situation and find ways that are less taxing, require less masking, etc. to move through a situation or be at peace in it. Stress can sometimes mask grief. Our hegemonic culture has not developed or has even discarded tools for working with grief. So sometimes stress can be indicator that grief work is helpful. Also, a very real factor is disaster capitalism -- giving people a place to be real about that and its multiple devastating impacts is often very helpful. Sometimes it can open up new creative ways of addressing the challenge and finding agency that might have been inaccessible before. Sometimes there is just a need to mourn the challenges with other compassionate folks to feel less alone. Sometimes its about family or cultural conditioning to prove and succeed in an automated way, that discards the realm of emotions that unfortunately can't be stuffed or wedged out forever, as they are a useful gauge for inner and broader conditions when worked with constructively. Stress could be resultant from conditions not listed here, like being an overextended caregiver, etc. or stepping into one's first big art/creative event... If you're feeling stress, please feel free to reach out and ask for help!

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.

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.
