Stress
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.

Lila Wallace
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LFMT
Stress is so pervasive today that we sometimes forget it’s not a natural part of how humans function. I can help you understand what stress means in your mind and body and how to make better choices with that in mind. Although a certain amount of stress is useful, a feeling of being overwhelmed is not.

Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Stress doesn't have to take over your life. Understanding the driving pressures, anxieties, and fears in your life that contribute to compounded stress is the start. I work in a mindfulness-oriented approach to help self-regulate and cope with stress.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Before becoming a therapist, I myself was a driven professional in a high-pressure environment. Traveling constantly and 60+ hour weeks were the norm. No matter how hard I worked, it never felt like enough, which led to burnout and a lot of self-doubt. That’s when I went to see a therapist—when I knew the way I was handling work just wasn’t working. In that process, I learned a lot about the things I was doing that made a tough situation even harder on myself. I learned how to take responsibility for my part in my struggles, while setting limits with work and eventually finding a career that was more congruent with my values and celebrated what makes me ME. By rediscovering and leveraging your strengths, you can learn to enlist the resources needed to tackle your current opportunities. Building on your best qualities can drive your professional growth and get you to the next level.
