Stress
Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
My therapy services are designed to address the unique emotional and psychological challenges that gay men often face. Growing up and living in systems that stigmatize and marginalize us can lead to anxiety, depression, trauma, shame, and isolation. I offer a safe, affirming space where you can explore these experiences, find healing, and build resilience.
Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma
Gay men experience higher rates of anxiety, often rooted in rejection, discrimination, and past trauma. Together, we’ll identify the sources of stress and use evidence-based strategies to reduce symptoms, improve mood, and restore balance. For those healing from trauma or PTSD, therapy offers a supportive environment to heal from painful memories and regain a sense of safety and control.
Building Confidence and Managing Stress
Stigma and chronic stress can undermine the ability to feel safe. My approach focuses on strengthening self-esteem, developing healthy coping tools, and helping you cultivate self-compassion and confidence.
My Approach
I use a client-centered, affirming approach that validates your experiences while empowering you to grow. With years of experience working with gay men’s mental health, I integrate proven therapeutic methods to support you in creating lasting change and living more fully and authentically.

Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are a lot of ways to look at stress. Here's a way of looking at stress that I find useful:
Stress is what happens when your body builds up energy to handle one or more situations, but ends up rallying more energy than is necessary to handle those situations well. For example, you have to do your taxes? So your body pumps out a bit of cortisol to get you focused enough to take it seriously. Great. But what happens when your body just keeps dumping cortisol till you feel overwhelmed and exhausted? That's stress.
With Somatic Experiencing, we work together to teach your body how to use just enough energy to get the job done, and then let go of that energy once the job is finished. Rally, execute, then rest. Viola, less stress.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
Hypnosis, reported improved sleep, and stress reduction go hand in hand in my hypnotherapy practice. Over many years a majority of my clients shared their observations concerning a reduction in their stress level, when in fact we were focused on other issues. Their reporting caused me to integrate stress education and stress management training into my practice of hypnotherapy at no additional cost to my clients. I began doing so more than 20 years ago. It wasn't long before I was teaching stress management workshops to licensed therapists throughout California, and the same as an adjunct professor in the Department of Educational Psychology at California State University Northridge. I am passionate about helping others learn to manage their stress through education, hypnotherapy, and self-hypnosis.

Stress is part and parcel of every client I have to varying degrees. We discuss and sound out what is defined as stress in their lives, and if there may be resistances or roadblocks to reducing this stress.

Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Some stress is useful. It sharpens focus, drives performance, and keeps you engaged with what matters. But when stress becomes chronic, when it stops being situational and starts being the baseline, it takes a real toll. Sleep suffers. Relationships strain. Physical health declines. The things you used to enjoy start feeling like obligations, and the ability to be present for any of it gets harder to access.
For many of the men I work with, stress is not coming from one place. It is the accumulation of professional pressure, financial responsibility, relationship demands, parenting, and the expectation to manage all of it without showing the strain. That kind of load does not resolve on its own. It builds.
Therapy for stress is not about eliminating pressure from your life. It is about changing your relationship to it. That means identifying what is actually driving the stress, understanding the physical and behavioral patterns that keep you stuck in it, and building practical tools for managing it more effectively. We look at boundaries, priorities, communication patterns, and the beliefs that make it difficult to slow down or ask for help.
My approach is direct and results oriented. I help clients cut through the noise, get clear on what is most important, and develop sustainable habits that create more space and less friction in daily life. The goal is not just to feel less stressed. It is to function better, think more clearly, and show up the way you want to in the areas that matter most.
If stress has become your default setting and you are ready to change that, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Newark is one of the most economically and culturally complex cities in the northeastern United States — a majority Black and Latino city with deep roots in jazz, civil rights history, and a long experience of disinvestment — and its therapy community frequently addresses the intersection of systemic inequity, racial trauma, and the psychological effects of urban poverty. The city has a significant Portuguese and Brazilian community alongside long-established African American and Puerto Rican populations, and multilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve critical access roles in a city where language and cultural barriers remain significant. Rutgers New Jersey Medical School provides institutional training and resources, while University Hospital Newark anchors the city's clinical mental health infrastructure. Newark's proximity to New York City means some residents also access therapy across the Hudson, while a growing independent therapy community has developed within the city itself.
