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.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Chronic stress is your body and mind telling you that something is out of alignment — that you're carrying more than your share, saying yes when you mean no, or running a pace that isn't sustainable. At Simple Empathy we don't just teach stress management techniques. We look at why you're stressed, what you're afraid would happen if you slowed down, and what the relentless doing is keeping you from feeling. Direct, honest work for people who are exhausted and ready for something to actually change.

The Joy of You
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
Stress can sometimes be overwhelming, but try not to worry too much. It's important to take care of yourself and find healthy ways to manage it. Don't hesitate to lean on family, friends, or colleagues when you're feeling stressed. Talking about your feelings can help relieve some of the pressure, and they may have valuable advice or perspective. Hypnosis by itself and as an adjunct to other treatments has been proven to help reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.

Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
Stress is a part of life, but it doesn’t have to run your life. At PsychWorks Clinic, we help clients understand the roots of their stress and learn healthier ways to cope, recover, and reset. Whether you’re juggling work, family, school, or the constant pressure to keep it all together, our goal is to help you find balance and peace amid the chaos.
Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing, we teach practical tools for managing overwhelm, setting boundaries, and building resilience. We believe stress can be a signal, not of failure, but of the need to slow down, realign, and care for yourself differently. Together, we’ll work toward restoring calm, clarity, and control in your daily life.

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with individuals experiencing stress from a trauma-informed, systemic, and strengths-based perspective. Stress often emerges from juggling responsibilities, relational dynamics, work or school pressures, or past trauma, and chronic stress can impact both mental and physical health. In therapy, we explore the sources of stress, how it shows up in your body and mind, and the strategies that may or may not be helping.
Our work focuses on building awareness, developing coping skills, strengthening boundaries, and creating sustainable routines that support well-being. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and develop personalized strategies to navigate life with more ease, balance, and resilience.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
When demands keep piling up, chronic stress can begin to affect mood, sleep, focus, and overall well-being. Many people continue pushing through responsibilities while quietly feeling overwhelmed or stretched too thin. I help clients understand how stress is impacting their functioning and develop more sustainable ways to manage pressure while protecting their mental health.

Starlain Saldana
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Our modern society is fast-paced and focused on instant gratification. Most of us get caught up in grind culture, over committed, and doing too much. Living this way leaves little space to slow down, pause, and be with oneself - and if we can't be with ourselves, it is hard to know ourselves well. Simply learning stress management techniques often falls short; we must be willing to make broader changes to the way we live and structure our daily lives.

Tab Shamsi
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP
Stress is a normal and adaptive part of life. In many cases, it sharpens focus, fuels motivation, and supports growth. Problems arise when stress is chronic, unmanaged, or disconnected from recovery, leading to exhaustion, irritability, strained relationships, and burnout. I approach stress treatment from a research-informed foundation, helping clients understand how stress functions biologically and psychologically before building personalized strategies that fit their specific demands and goals. Rather than eliminating stress entirely, our work focuses on strengthening resilience, improving recovery, and creating systems that allow you to benefit from ambition and busyness without being overwhelmed by them.

Robert Good
Counselor/Therapist, M.A., Th.M., LPC, CART
Individual counseling is offered to individuals in helping them achieve control over actions through an understanding of how thoughts, feelings, and decisions produce actions. We provide a safe environment where one’s private pain can be shared in confidence with a trained therapist to grow in self-awareness and self-esteem while helping a person make decisions, solve problems, and overcome past and present abuses and pains. Sometimes when negative memories prohibit an individual from enjoying a satisfying life, issues in one’s family of origin can be explored to understand the past and seek to establish a new identity.
Feelings like fear, sorrow, anger, rejection, and loneliness can lessen as self-acceptance and coping skills are encouraged and strengthened.

Restoration Counseling Ministries
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
We need stress to survive. But we need eustress or "good stress." It's the kind of stress that motivates us to do hard things and find great satisfaction in it. But we also experience distress or "bad stress." It's the kind of stress that sucks the life out of you. One of the great challenges of life is making sure we have enough eustress to motivate us and not too much distress that sucks the life out of us. We help people find balance.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
As a therapist, I often treat anxiety and do trauma work as well, so I address PTSD as well as other disorders which can involve panic attacks, rumination, muscle tension, poor sleep/nightmares, and generalized anxiety. Some of my clients meet full criteria for anxiety disorders and some experience stress but do not have anxiety disorders. I am well-versed in helping both people with long-term anxiety symptoms and trauma as well as adjustment issues related to stressful situations, toxic work environments, family changes, financial concerns and the like. Everyone who experiences stress and/or anxiety symptoms wants a combination of short-term relief and to experience a lesser degree of symptoms in the long-term. As such, I use evidence based practices like CBT and DBT interventions to help people reduce their symptoms and evaluate their current circumstances in order to feel less anxious, have a greater ability to be present and relax, and have restful sleep.

St. Louis sits at a crossroads of the Midwest and the South, and its deeply segregated geography shapes a mental health landscape where therapists frequently address racial trauma, economic stress, and community-level grief rooted in the city's long history of systemic inequality. The 2014 Ferguson uprising brought national attention to St. Louis and left a lasting psychological mark on many residents, and therapists specializing in racial trauma, activism fatigue, and community healing remain in strong demand. Washington University School of Medicine and Barnes-Jewish Hospital provide world-class institutional mental health resources, with a strong private practice community concentrated in Clayton, the Central West End, and South City. St. Louis's lower cost of living relative to coastal cities makes quality private therapy more financially accessible for many residents.
