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.

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

Stress
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Life is stressful. Sometimes everything comes tumbling down at once. Problems at work, in relationships with friends, family, or neighbors, or in encountering illness. Major source of difficulty especially these days is how financial setbacks can make living life freely and joyfully seem impossible. Prolonged stress can lead to or worsen physical illness and cause psychological imbalance. Among the possibilities, a solutions-focused approach can be helpful in slowly tackling the unwelcome practical burdens that life presents.
