"There is nothing wrong with asking for help. It's important to remember that and to remember that you're human. There is a great quote by Fred Rogers, "When we talk about our feelings they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary." "

"I work with clients to explore how connections with family, friends, partners, and larger societal structures shape who they are and how they relate to others in order to promote change, understanding, and healing in their lives. My therapeutic approach integrates relational cultural therapy with interpersonal, emotion-focused, and mindfulness-based techniques. I also aim to be flexible, adjusting my style and pace to suit client's unique goals, personalities, and identities. Feminist and social justice oriented perspectives are also integral to my work as I strive to make therapy as safe, affirming, and inclusive as possible."

"Something isn't working in your relationship. Maybe the conflict is leaving you hurt or hopeless. Or there's been an affair, and you can't get back to normal. Perhaps you're an entrepreneur, and the stress of the business is poisoning the relationship. You might even be on the brink of calling it quits-unsure if you really want to stay or go. It can be easy to get overwhelmed and discouraged. I offer Gottman Method Couples Therapy, a research-based and goal-oriented approach to reducing conflict, improving communication, rebuilding trust and intimacy, and healing your relationship."

"Are you feeling overwhelmed with life? Are you struggling in some way? Whether the problem feels big or small, I want to be there to help you navigate it. Just as no person is alike, I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach to the counseling process. I strive for my clients to reach their therapy goals, and I utilize a collaborative approach with my clients throughout our sessions. My goal as a counselor is to help my clients reach their greatest potential. I want to be there to help you reach your goals, whatever they may be."

"I primarily work with clients who are going through a life transition. Sometimes this looks like the end of a relationship, feeling stuck in a career, or not really being sure where to go next but knowing it is time to make a change. I am passionate about providing support to my clients and helping them feel empowered. I specialize in perinatal counseling and see women struggling with infertility, experiencing the grief of miscarriage or other perinatal loss, and transitioning into the phase of pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting."

"My mission is to create hope where there is none and to empower the individuals I work with to find healing. Healing will be defined by YOU - I will operate as an active guide throughout the process. I offer private counseling to individuals and their family members/significant others who are struggling with alcohol and/or drug use. I am able to help craft safety plans, moderation plans or abstinence plans based on your goals. I will assist you to create balance in your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health. *Currently accepting new clients."

"Calling all overwrought women; you do not have to feel this way anymore. You can feel happy and carefree again. Whether you're a caregiver, mother, partner, entrepreneur, the perfect child or BFF to all, if you feel like YOU have gotten lost in everyone else's story, I can help you find your story again. I help people reclaim their lives. Together we will identify beliefs and behaviors that may be leading you away from your true self and begin to rebuild new ways to manage your life that will help you regain self-compassion, confidence, and strength."

"When you are suffering, experiencing obstacles, or feeling stuck in your life you can use therapy as an opportunity for tremendous growth and transformation. I believe you already have everything you need to work with the challenges you are facing and successfully achieve your goals. We will work together to identify and remove obstacles that keep you from reaching your goals. As a therapist I feel privileged and moved watching my clients' inner strength, resilience, and resourcefulness come to fruition. If you would like to learn more about my approach to therapy, check out my website: www.drstephens-counseling.com."

"As a psychotherapist I strive to assist my clients in the process of becoming more whole in all aspects of their lives. My primary training is as an art therapist and I use an integrative approach to promote healing. I find that enhancing talk therapy with experiential methods gives my clients the freedom to express their deepest selves. Within the therapeutic relationship we can find the existing internal nuances and textures that make us all unique and valuable. My work includes seeing individuals, adolescents and adults, who have depression/anxiety, past trauma, addiction related issues and middle-aged challenges."

"Every crisis is an opportunity for growth and development. It is by taking risks and surmounting challenges through which real and lasting transformation can occur. Although one of my therapist roles is to provide support, I also challenge my clients to think, feel, and behave differently. As a therapist, I prioritize developing and maintaining an open, nonjudgmental, and trusting relationship with my clients. I strive to be authentic and encourage the same of my clients. I help clients identify and meet their therapeutic goals through the development of insight and/or new skills. I also emphasize process, rather than outcome."

"I am a person-centered therapist. My aim in session is to support my clients' natural ability to make change in their life. I specialize in life transition issues. My typical client is facing a challenge that is pressing them toward change in a major life area (work, relationships, finances, etc.). I help them uncover feelings and beliefs that secretly sabotage their decision-making process and replace them with more effective ones. Therapy with me is about getting honest about what you feel and think and using those insights to guide you toward more authentic choices resulting a more rewarding life."

"I provide counseling services to adults with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, relationship problems, addictions and ADHD. I offer individual and couples psychotherapy services. My style is interactive and supportive, yet direct in working with clients and I view psychotherapy as a collaborative effort between therapist and client.I use a combination of therapy techniques suited to your individual needs which may include: Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Family Systems, Humanistic and Relational."

"I specialize in women's issues: mother/daughter relationships, organizing big feelings, struggles with anxiety and uncertainty, difficulties with intimate relationships. I help women learn to trust themselves and connect more with their present moment experience - this includes emotions and the body - which becomes a source of internal strength, information about the self, and felt change. I'm in this work to help people grow, to give them an experience of relating from an authentic place where they get to have a confident and clear sense of self. I help people find what feels most true and right for them."

"I have 20 years of experience and specialize in: counseling for boys and teen males; adult psychotherapy for depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, men's issues; family counseling and parenting skills. I help my clients to identify and tap their inner strengths. I am described by clients as calm, caring, supportive and highly effective. I will work with you to establish a safe, trusting relationship as the foundation for our work towards your personal goals. I offer a free initial consultation and evening appointments are available."

"I believe we can become ashamed of events in our lives, or carry past regrets. Without addressing these issues, we might come to believe these problems are a part of us, and become negative toward ourselves and others. We may begin to experience and internalize pain and suffering which can affect our daily living and relationships. Through counseling, you can experience freedom, confidence and kindness toward yourself and others. Working collaboratively, I will support you in developing the tools, skills and insight to create positive change."

"No problem is too big or too small to work on in counseling. If something is causing you pain or distress, it’s worth addressing. I am here to help you discover new ways to manage your life in a way that is genuine for you. While counseling can be a difficult and emotionally taxing experience, most find hope and strength throughout the process, as well as increased well-being during and after therapy. I am passionate about helping individuals, couples and families overcome difficult situations, and helping each individual shine as the best version of her or himself."

"It is my heartfelt desire to assist you in connecting with your authentic self and rediscovering a deep sense of well being. I am empathic, spiritual, thoughtful, interactive, and dedicated to your deepest healing. I work with individuals and couples, empowering them to create loving, healthy relationships. I practice a blend of techniques, including gestalt, person centered and spiritual psychology. I also provide supervision for LMFT interns and associates."

"I believe that we all have the strengths necessary to shift thoughts, feelings and behaviors in order to meet our full potential, and I enjoy helping people on their journey of self-awareness, healing, and empowerment. I approach therapy with compassion and great respect for my clients, and am able to help people identify and access their personal strengths necessary to overcome challenges so that they can live a more satisfying life."

"I specialize in working with men and women in the area of relationships, conflict management, rebuilding trust, infidelity and co-parenting/divorce. My work with couples focuses on identifying areas of conflict that allow you to gain insight and move to resolve challenges effectively and efficiently. You can strengthen your relationships with others by understanding ways to communicate and resolve conflict. The couples I work include premarital counseling as well. Please visit my website for details. Within an accepting environment, I provide counseling that is authentic, conversational and compassionately direct as I truly care about your success."

"I provide a compassionate, safe, and non-judgmental environment to help you begin the path to healing and self-discovery. My approach to therapy values your unique needs and abilities and I'll work with you to establish goals that are attainable. My style has been described as warm, authentic, thoughtful and dedicated.
