Zena Caputo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Although stress in life seems like a given, we're not often taught how to reduce or effectively manage it's (very real) impact--or sometimes we're faced with a new set of challenges that exceed our usual attempts to cope. Learning more about how your unique nervous system works can help you evaluate, navigate, and cope more effectively so that you can find more ease and joy in life.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Stress Management: Chronic stress can impact every aspect of your life, including your mood, sleep, health, relationships, and overall sense of well-being. You may feel constantly overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unable to slow down even when you know you need rest.
I help clients identify the sources of stress, strengthen coping skills, regulate the nervous system, and create healthier boundaries. Together, we’ll develop practical strategies that support greater balance and emotional resilience.
This work is about moving from survival mode into a life that feels more grounded, manageable, and sustainable.

Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I have found that one of the greatest contributors to stress is in over-extending ourselves. We live in a society that values productivity and "staying busy". There is so much value in slowing down, in checking in with ourselves, in engaging in mindfulness. I will work with you on creating more balance so that you can reclaim your life, your mind, and your energy.

Holly Hall, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Stress is an inevitable part of life, but when it becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can take a serious toll on your mental and physical health, relationships, and overall quality of life. Whether you're dealing with work pressure, family responsibilities, financial concerns, or the cumulative weight of daily demands, unmanaged stress can leave you feeling exhausted, irritable, and unable to cope.
I help clients develop effective strategies for managing stress and building resilience. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll identify the thoughts and beliefs that amplify stress—such as perfectionism, catastrophic thinking, or unrealistic expectations—and learn to challenge and reframe them. You'll develop practical coping skills including relaxation techniques, time management strategies, and problem-solving approaches that you can apply immediately.
From a family systems perspective, we'll also explore how relationship dynamics, family roles, and communication patterns may contribute to your stress levels. Sometimes stress isn't just about your own workload—it's about how responsibilities are distributed, boundaries are set, and support is available within your family or household. When past trauma or unresolved issues contribute to current stress, we can address those underlying factors to create more lasting relief and prevent future overwhelm.My goal is to help you not just survive stress, but develop the tools and perspective to manage life's challenges more effectively. You'll learn to recognize your stress triggers, respond rather than react, and create a more balanced, sustainable approach to your responsibilities and well-being.

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.

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
