David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a licensed therapist specializing in stress and anxiety, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate these often overwhelming experiences. Stress and anxiety can significantly impact our daily lives, but with the right tools and therapeutic approaches, they can be managed effectively. My therapeutic style is rooted in mindfulness-based approaches that encourage a stronger connection between mind and body, cultivating a greater awareness and acceptance of thoughts and feelings as they arise.
I provide a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment, allowing for exploration of your unique experiences and concerns. Together, we will work towards understanding the triggers and patterns of your anxiety and stress, and develop strategies for managing them in a healthier way. The mindfulness-based techniques we explore can help you cultivate a sense of inner calm, improve focus, and enhance your ability to respond rather than react to stressful situations.
My commitment is to support you in this journey towards greater mental health, helping you find a sense of balance and peace amidst life's challenges. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. I look forward to assisting you on your path towards greater resilience and wellbeing.

Stress is the constant and nagging thief of joy, it undermines our ability show up fully in our lives. It also affects our hormone balance, changing our physiology. Often, we do not realize just how much stress we are under until we have the chance to slow down, talk about it and explore it with support in a safe space.

How do you deal with stress?
We feel stress whenever we have the feeling of losing control. When we think we cannot cope with the amount of work, when something unforeseeable thwarts our plans or when the demands placed on us are too high etc. - then stress always arises.
Created by fear of possible catastrophes, of failure or of not being able to do something, stress drives our adrenaline levels up. This costs the body an enormous amount of energy and in the long run can even make us seriously ill.
A study by Harvard University has now found that employees with personnel responsibility are on average less stressed. The control you gain through more responsibility apparently outweighs the stress. This means that the more we relinquish control and feel out of control, the more we feel stressed.
