Stress therapists in Wildwood, New Jersey NJ
Alyssa Kushner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
We live in a world with tons of stressors and responsibilities. From work or school, to relationships, and to keeping up with your own self care - it can be hard to manage it all. Stress isnt a bad thing, however if it becomes unmanageable and chronic with no work toward moving through it, it can lead to burn out, depression or anxiety, and exhaustion. Through therapy, we will develop foundations of self care, stress management, and learn ways to manage and cope with difficult feelings. If its related to other people we will work on setting better boundaries, attending to your needs before others, and learning how to say no. I bring a trauma-informed, somatic, and holistic lens and I am trained in EMDR & DBT. Though, I believe the therapeutic relationship is more important and will prioritize creating a safe trusting space.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Stress is an undeniable and unavoidable part of life. So trying to avoid stressful situations entirely is not a good solution. But what we can do is learn to manage stress effectively. This can involve learning some of the many stress management techniques, of course, but it also needs to involve a shift in what we could call mental attitude, approach, or even how we habitually tend to perceive reality. When I work with people who are often stressed, I am very interested in helping them to understand how their habits of perceiving reality contribute to their feelings of stress and overwhelm. Once this is understood, stress management becomes much easier.

Chuck Gray, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR. I also offer counseling tools that I personally developed here in Houston.
