Stress
Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I work with clients experiencing high levels of stress, overwhelm, and burnout- often individuals who are managing demanding careers, family responsibilities, and internal pressure to keep everything together. Stress can build gradually over time or show up suddenly during periods of transition, leaving people feeling emotionally drained, anxious, irritable, or disconnected from themselves.
Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and outwardly capable, yet internally struggling with exhaustion, pressure, and difficulty slowing down. Stress can begin to affect sleep, relationships, concentration, and overall sense of wellbeing, making it harder to feel present or grounded in daily life.
In therapy, we work together to understand both the external demands and internal patterns that contribute to stress. This includes exploring perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-responsibility, and difficulty setting boundaries, as well as identifying what your mind and body need in order to feel more regulated and supported.
I integrate practical coping tools with deeper emotional insight, helping clients not only manage stress in the moment but also shift long-standing patterns that keep them stuck in cycles of overwhelm. My goal is to help you feel more balanced, resourced, and able to move through life with greater ease, clarity, and self-compassion.

Stress
Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I work with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. Individual psychotherapy helps clients deal with particular issues, symptoms, and stressors. My goal is to provide a safe, non judgmental space for you to explore who you are, how you relate to others, and what supports you on your journey to become your best self. I lean into, listen, understand, and enhance authentic expression. Together we create a collaborative process of transformation. What that means and what that looks like is different for everyone...
I offer evidence-based therapies from a curious, nonjudgmental philosophy. No matter where you have been, evidence-based therapies focus on changing the now. I strive to help my clients experience the world mindfully, and in accordance with their personal values. Through our work in cultivating an affirming, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I provide support while we collaboratively deconstruct what is causing distress in your life and preventing you from being your most effective and authentic self. Individual therapy facilitates insight and growth, becoming more effective at actualizing your values, and building more authentic relationships with yourself and with others.
While there are many forms of therapy you can pursue, my expertise is in time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders, and third wave CBT such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness based interventions. (I do have experience in, and practice, an eclectic arrangement of other modalities as well-- when applicable or specifically requested.) We explore thoughts, beliefs, and understanding, while also prioritizing behavioral processes that focus on your contexts and the functions of how you relate to your internal experiences. CBT is designed to help individuals notice and shift their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to get relief from painful emotions such as anxiety and sadness.
Third wave interventions also promote well-being through developing coping skills, personal values, and metacognition that complement traditional CBT interventions. I provide flexible, customizable approaches that look different with each patient. I empower my clients to discover their strength, clarity, creativity, autonomy, resilience, motivation, and confidence in meeting whatever happens next. I provide individualized tools to use in everyday decision-making that will help those changes last. With these modalities I treat individuals who are impacted by depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship distress, burnout, divorce, loss, uncertainty, stigma, and other life experiences, diagnoses, and stressors. We explore the sources, experiences, and beliefs that impact how you relate with the world and implement change in your life. You are the expert on you, but are you your most effective and content self?

Christine Clark, PsyD
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Stress is such a powerful emotion that can easily take over our lives if we are not careful. Stress can creep up in areas of our lives and negatively affect us. When stress is not dealt with, it can affect our physical and emotional health. Through counseling, it is possible to discuss what is causing stress in our lives and find ways to cope with that stress or problem solve solutions if possible.

Stress
Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Stress is a normal, useful response to life; it’s the survival mechanism that helps us grow, learn and succeed. Distress is the negative impact of prolonged, severe, and unmanaged stress. Together we will co-create tools to abate and dispel your distress while capitalizing on good stress. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement therapy work; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. Taking a 5Ps approach to stress management, together we can explore your "perception" of your current stressors; gain "perspective" on the origins and instigators of your stress and on how you’d prefer to feel in the future; "prioritize" manageable and sustainable steps toward this future; ensure they are aligned with your professional and personal "purpose"; and put into "practice" the tools and behaviors to get you to that positive stress level.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Chronic stress takes a toll on both the body and mind. When the nervous system remains activated for long periods, exhaustion, irritability, and physical symptoms often follow. In therapy, we focus on not only on managing stress but understanding its sources. Through trauma-informed and somatic techniques, we support your body in shifting from survival mode into greater regulation and resilience.
