Lauro Guzman
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW
Stress is the body's reaction to challenging situations. Stress can be caused by positive or negative life changes, and it can lead to physical and psychological issues. Stress can manifest itself in different ways, including excessive worrying, inability to sleep at night. I work with therapy clients to help better manage and overcome it.

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are accustomed to managing responsibilities, solving problems, and being someone others can depend on, stress can quietly become a way of life. Your mind may rarely switch off, your to do list never seems finished, and even rest can feel difficult when there is always something or someone needing your attention.
I help clients identify what is fueling the pressure and develop practical, sustainable ways to manage it. Together, we can address overthinking, perfectionism, competing demands, boundaries, emotional overload, and the expectations you place on yourself while strengthening your ability to respond to stress with greater intention.
Our work is not about helping you become better at carrying an unsustainable load. It is about creating space to breathe, reset priorities, establish healthier boundaries, and build a life where your own well being has a place alongside everything and everyone you care about.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Stress factors in to all of our lives and each one of us handles stress differently. Research has found that stress wreaks havoc on our physical bodies and our emotional lives. 2020 was particularly hard on many people as stress mounted due to a global pandemic, physical and social lockdown and isolation, loss of jobs, illness, death, and political discord. These stressors often outweigh the resources that we have and begin to take a toll on the way we feel and our relationships with ourselves and others. It is my goal to bring these stressors to light and find ways to navigate each individuals world in order to find more peace and balance even within the chaos.

Douglas LaBier, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Much of the stress I see in my patient's lives is rooted in a way of life and personal values that conflict with an inner sense of dissatisfaction in work, their intimate partnership, or overall way of life. Stress than becomes a natural expression of these conflicts, Therapy helps uncover what's going on, and can point to what the patient must confront and deal with in more fulfilling ways, in order to grow beyond just "coping" or "managing" stress as a permanent state or being.

Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
You may be the person others rely on, but constantly functioning at a high level can leave you depleted, irritable, disconnected from yourself, or unable to relax even when you finally have time to do so. I help clients develop practical strategies for managing stress while exploring the deeper patterns that make it difficult to slow down, set limits, ask for help, or prioritize their own needs. Together, we work to understand why the pressure feels so difficult to put down and develop a different relationship with responsibility, rest, and the expectations you place on yourself.
