Sandra Thébaud, PhD
Welcome! I’m the creator of StressAway® and a clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience helping people effectively manage stress. I began my career as an active-duty Navy Psychologist and I've published three books on stress management.
Throughout my career, I’ve dedicated myself to understanding stress, its effects, and—most importantly—the science-based techniques that truly help people regain control and thrive. Now, I’m excited to bring all of that expertise directly to you through the StressAway® app.
StressAway® is more than just a tool; it’s an accessible, affordable way to tackle stress anytime, anywhere. By combining proven strategies with immersive virtual reality (VR) technology, StressAway® allows you to experience real stress relief wherever you are. Think of it as a personal stress management solution that’s always within reach.
Designed to be user-friendly and effective, StressAway® leverages techniques backed by science to reduce stress, build resilience, and improve well-being. It offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional therapy, putting the benefits of expert knowledge and VR technology into one convenient app.
This version of StressAway® contains 3 environments and 8 stress solutions. That’s 24 different combinations you can use to take a break from stress. And you can choose to experience any of these combinations in 5, 10, or 20 minute sessions.
My goal is simple: to make effective stress management accessible to everyone. I’m here to help you find calm, gain control, and experience a life with less stress—right from your phone or VR headset. Welcome to StressAway®, where stress relief is just a tap away.
