Timothy Walker

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Stress is everywhere! In the news! Social media! Our commute! Finances! Our relationships! And stress has a nasty habit of multiplying exponentially, seemingly no matter what we do. Focus on the stress and the stress sometimes grows. Ignore the stress and it grows. What to do? How to win? The questions seem unanswerable, and yet, with dialogue and exploration, solutions can be find.

Campbell, California therapist: Janice Shapiro, marriage and family therapist
Stress

Janice Shapiro

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
One of my specialties combines canine massage with psychotherapy. This is an animal-assisted psychotherapy that relieves your stress, anxiety and depression as you massage your dog. The key is that you are doing something outside yourself for your beloved pet as well as for yourself at the same time. During the massage the oxytocin (the well-being hormone) is increased and cortisol (the stress hormone) is reduced for both you and your dog. I am the originator of this unique therapy as I call it Janice's Rotary Canine Massage.

People can become stressed from different parts of their lives. Life transitions can create stress. Burnout is chronic stress on our body and mind. It can appear as exhaustion, cynicism and detachment, and/or feeling ineffective and unaccomplished. Chronic stress is not healthy for the body and can lead to more mental and/or physical health concerns.

San Jose sits at the heart of Silicon Valley, where the pressures of the tech industry — performance anxiety, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of relentless innovation culture — drive significant demand for therapists experienced in high-achievement environments. The city's large South Asian and East Asian communities mean culturally competent therapists who understand the intersection of immigrant identity, family expectations, and mental health are particularly sought after. Santa Clara Valley Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing independent therapy community. Many South Bay therapists offer evening and weekend hours to accommodate the demanding work schedules common in the tech sector.
