We Work With People Who Are Stressed Out!
Whether it’s our private clients, our corporate clients, or our workshop participants–they want relief. They need a break from the constant stress that they’re feeling in and around them. We imagine that that’s what brought you here, too. 
We provide therapy for individuals, couples, friends and family, and colleagues experiencing high levels of stress. Rebecca serves as our primary therapist.
We are also experts in stress management and wellbeing and provide workshops and trainings on those topics for groups and organizations. Rebecca and Gioia facilitate the workshops together.

What We Do
We help you manage stress so that you ‘re controlling it, it isn’t controlling you. What we do:
We interrupt the downward spiral of negativity, stress, burnout, and fatigue.
We launch an upward spiral of positivity, wellbeing, resilience, and happiness.
You might ask why we separate the two ideas. Aren’t they one and the same? They’re not. Reducing stress and negativity is, of course, very important. It helps remove the barriers to wellbeing. But building positivity and wellbeing is a process in and of itself.
How We Increase Positivity and Wellbeing
We shift the negativity bias–the tendency for negativity to trump positivity–so that positivity has a fighting chance.
Because the negativity bias happens unconsciously, even to positive people, we need ways to become more consciously aware of what is positive and working in our lives.
Here are just some of the strategies we teach:
- Establishing your happiness set point
- Increasing your positivity ratio
- Exploring your resilience and what has gotten you through difficulties
- Identifying your strengths and how you might be over or underutilizing them
- Complimenting your strengths and weaknesses with those of others around you
- Identifying your tendencies toward optimism and pessimism
- Finding your meaning and purpose
- Using your strengths to bring about the changes you want in your life
