Relational stress, job stress, academic stress, stress from parenting issues - all kinds of stress - are part and parcel of our everyday lives! And we know that 'under stress we all regress'! We can't escape it - we can only learn to m-a-n-a-g-e it! Therapy is designed to help us manage stress with techniques, organizational tips, insight, and fresh perspective.

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.

Scheyden Herold
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
Stress is a huge 6 letter word that gets thrown around frequently, but how do we actually manage it? It isn't as simple as going to the spa or squeezing a stress ball. All of the resources I am trained in teaching people allow us to manage stress in a far more effective way. Stress management and self-care is essential, and the practice of that is something we can work on together. This wasn't something that was taught in schools, but that is okay, we can learn now.

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.

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.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
Stress often reflects an internal imbalance between responsibility, perfectionism, and emotional needs. Through relational exploration, I help clients increase self-awareness, develop healthier boundaries, and restore a sense of internal calm and agency.

Alejandra Kenia Ipina
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I often work with women who are exhausted from years of stress. It may show up in your life as sleep disturbances, inability to make decisions, brain fog, anxiety or depression. Using somatic therapy and a holistic approach, we can help reduce the impact of stress. Sound healing promotes reduction of cortisol and improves your mood.
