Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
In my approach to treating stress, I prioritize evidence-based strategies that empower individuals to navigate life’s pressures more effectively. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients identify stressors and the unhelpful thought patterns that amplify them. We work together to reframe these thoughts, develop practical coping strategies, and incorporate relaxation techniques. My aim is to build resilience and equip clients with lasting tools to manage stress, enhance their well-being, and improve their overall quality of life. Whether you're dealing with work challenges, family dynamics, or other stress-inducing factors, I collaborate with you to find personalized solutions that foster lasting change.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Stress often intensifies during major life transitions—career shifts, parenting, relocation, or relationship changes. Through an attachment-informed and emotion-focused approach, we explore how stress impacts connection and communication.
Using IFS, we identify protective patterns such as irritability, withdrawal, or self-criticism, and strengthen internal self-leadership. Therapy helps you respond rather than react, fostering resilience both internally and relationally.

San Mateo is a Bay Area city on the Peninsula between San Francisco and Silicon Valley, part of one of the most expensive real estate markets in the world, and home to a large proportion of technology industry workers whose work-related stressors—alongside the intense financial pressure of Peninsula housing costs—shape much of the local mental health demand. The city has a significant East and Southeast Asian population, including large Filipino and Chinese-American communities, for whom culturally competent therapy that addresses specific cultural dynamics around family, stigma, and identity is an important consideration. A well-developed private therapy sector serves the affluent professional community, and telehealth has extended the effective therapy market across the Bay Area. Common therapy concerns include tech industry burnout, housing cost anxiety and financial stress, Asian-American identity and family dynamics, relationship difficulties, and the paradox of acute psychological distress in an objectively privileged material environment.
