Stress is essential for growth and strength, however, too much or stress poorly timed can be destructive. Being able to navigate those nuances is rewarding work in therapy.

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.

Baya Mebarek, In-Office Couple Therapy & Online Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
These days we are more likely to feel stress when we face overwhelming responsibilities at work or home, when experiencing loneliness, rejection, or the fear of losing things that are important to us, such as our jobs or friends. Learning coping skills like relaxation, meditation, mindfulness, hypnosis and others like these help to soothe the mind and minimize stress. Learn to quiet your mind and make your decisions with clarity and peace.

Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
If you are experiencing stress, it is very important to take care of it early so it doesn't get locked into your body system and cause chronic physical or emotional issues. I specialize in stress reduction for current and old stress using EMDR and cognitive-behavioral mindfulness therapy.

Elaine Quattro
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
You can reduce stress or manage it productively by using some of these strategies:
1. Express your feelings….with friends, a counselor, write in a journal, compose a letter you don’t mail, write a poem or essay. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
2. Do just one thing at a time. Prioritize the things you need to get done.
3. Take care of yourself physically through nutrition or exercise.
4. Know your limits. Focus on what is really important and learn to say no.
5. Watch how you talk to yourself and do not judge yourself. Reverse your negative ideas and focus on positive outcomes.
