Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Stress can leave you feeling like you're constantly in motion. Like you are managing responsibilities, putting out fires, and trying to keep up without ever feeling caught up. Over time, that pace can leave you disconnected from yourself and the people who matter most. Therapy offers a place to slow down, understand what's driving the pressure, and create a life that feels more balanced, intentional, and sustainable.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with coping with stress can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can explore how to address your stress and how these struggles may impact your happiness and ability to get what you want. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Judith Rapley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Stress is your body’s response to a challenge. That challenge can be real, imagined, outside your body or within, a thought, or a task. Regardless of where the challenge is coming from, stress causes our bodies to react, or to speed up. We look at its presentation and manifestations and come you with tailored ways to look at and address these.

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.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work with adults experiencing chronic stress, overwhelm, or difficulty managing daily pressures at work, home, or in relationships. Many clients feel exhausted, tense, or stuck in cycles of overthinking and worry, even when they are capable and high-functioning. My approach combines practical stress-management strategies with insight into underlying emotional and cognitive patterns, helping clients build resilience, regulate emotions, and create healthier, more balanced ways of navigating life’s demands.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
When stress becomes chronic, it stops feeling like a response to circumstances and starts feeling like "just the way things are." This can lead to many other mental and physical health issues, which only perpetuates the cycle of stress. I help clients to get underneath the stress, understanding what's driving it, what its protecting, and how to relate to it differently so it has less power over your daily life.

Staten Island's suburban character and strong Italian-American and Eastern European heritage shape a therapy culture that has historically carried some skepticism about mental health treatment, even as demand has grown substantially. The borough was among the hardest hit in New York City by the opioid epidemic, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery, grief, and trauma from loss remain a central part of the community's mental health infrastructure. Staten Island University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while private practices are concentrated in Stapleton, Todt Hill, and the North Shore. Many residents also access therapy in New Jersey or Manhattan, reflecting the borough's geographic position at the outer edge of the city.
