Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Chronic stress can feel relentless, causing your mind to spiral, keeping your body tense and on edge, and leaving you exhausted or overwhelmed. Often, stress is fueled by high expectations, an overwhelming mental to-do list, or the pressure to control too much at once. Over time, this can drain your energy, strain relationships, and make everyday life feel heavy.
In therapy with me, we’ll explore how these patterns take hold, learn practical ways to quiet the mind and reset the nervous system, let go of the pressure, and confidently navigate challenges. Together, we’ll create space for clarity, steadiness, and a more sustainable way of living.

Stress is a part of life, and can really impact our overall health (sleep, weight, mood) if not managed well. Learning to help cope with and manage stress can be invaluable.

Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
I specialize in stress that stems from high expectations, major life transitions, and the demands of motherhood. Many of the women I work with are capable and driven, yet feel chronically overwhelmed, overstimulated, and unable to fully relax. Rather than focusing only on time management or surface coping skills, we address the underlying issues contributing to persistent stress. The goal is to help you feel more regulated and grounded in your daily life.

Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
General stress is a valid reason for seeking therapy. The majority of clients are subclinical, looking for ways to manage stress and triggers before they develop into conflict, mental illness, or disease. The demands of modern life are set up to leave us neglecting our true selves —so feeling stress is a sign of your humanity, and a place for us explore what works best for you.

Marge Michaelson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Stress is not necessarily negative as it leads to creation and problem solving. It can also lead to overwhelm, getting stuck or being immobilized even being non functional. Therapy can focus on the reasons for the stress both concrete, understood and not understood. In determining that, solutions can be formulated to address what is not working.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Stress is a part of living life. However, it becomes a problem when the stress level increases to the point that an individual cannot handle it effectively. The increased stress level can affect physical and mental health negatively. Learning to manage stress through the discussion of the life events that triggered the elevated level of stress in therapy can help clients to be more effective at managing stressful situations that they are dealing with. When you feel stressed, it is often the way our body is telling us that there is a problem. So, it would be wise and necessary to get help from professionals to prevent the worsening of unpleasant or disabling symptoms of stress in one's life.

Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Stress is an everyday occurrence for most of us, but that doesn't mean it has to hold us back from being our best selves and achieving our goals - so let's get down to it. I have years of experience working with teens, young and middle-aged adults in overcoming the many ways stress manifests in our lives, whether that is due to social, personal, work, past trauma, every day life, or just something you've always had. Assisting my clients with building insight and understanding into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is an essential part of my therapy practice, and provide evidence-based practice tools that you can use outside of therapy as well. ~~~ Just to make it clear: BLM. Protect the dolls. FDT. Free Palestine & Sudan. F the patriarchy/capitalism. Sex + Body Positive. ~~~
I am passionate about providing a safe, compassionate, and welcoming space where you can be open about your stressors so we can work through them together. Click that contact button and we can schedule a free consultation call today!

Chula Vista is one of California's fastest-growing cities and sits directly north of the US-Mexico border, with a predominantly Hispanic population and a large community of residents who maintain close ties to Tijuana — making bilingual Spanish-English therapy not a specialty but a basic access requirement for much of the population. The city's location within the broader San Diego metro means residents have access to the full range of institutional mental health resources, including Scripps Health and Sharp HealthCare, while Chula Vista's own private therapy community has expanded significantly alongside its population growth. The city's significant Filipino community and growing South Asian population add further dimensions to the demand for culturally competent care. Military families connected to Naval Base San Diego also form part of the local therapy clientele given the city's proximity to base housing.
