In the words of Mr. Rogers, “Play is really the work of childhood." I see kids who have prenatal, preverbal, or early childhood trauma; attachment and behavioral issues; or struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and anger. I will work with you to create a flexible treatment plan tailored to your child's individual needs, using techniques like prescriptive play therapy, filial therapy, expressive arts, sandtray, geek therapy, and attachment-based activities to directly address and heal the impact of stress on the body and brain. I help identify the reasons for children’s behavior and healthier ways to meet those needs.

Currently enrolling for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents Book Study & Processing group! Times/Dates TBD. I take a holistic approach to healing, because more often than not the environments that contribute to strife are all encompassing. The path to healing is not linear, I enjoy aiding clients through an eclectic approach tailored to fit their needs. It's not about what's wrong with you- it's about what happened to you. I do not view clients as a diagnosis, but dynamic individuals navigating the human experience.

I enjoy working with clients who want to get to the root of their struggles. These clients would like to gain insight into their symptoms, something difficult that has happened to them or to explore cycles and patterns that aren’t serving them. The clients I see often have attended therapy in the past. The clients I see also often present with attachment-based traumas, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, and difficulties in their personal and work relationships.

Awareness in itself is healing. -Fritz Perls. Imagine having the world's most incredible tool for healing, acceptance, and fulfilling experiences at your disposal. Now, what if I told you that YOU are actually this tool. Our mind and body connect in incredible ways. Sometimes, we need help learning how to listen more closely to ourselves and get to know the person we know we can be; and maybe, always were. It’s my hope that you find wholeness and peace through this process.

Hello and welcome! My name is Stephanie and I am a Master's level counselor who is currently working on becoming licensed to become a Licensed Professional Counselor. In my work with clients, I have a multifaceted approach to counseling, some of which includes: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered, Trauma-Focused, Multicultural, and Attachment-Based. I have experience and interest in providing support and treatment to adolescents and adults, who struggle with anxiety, depression, sexual addictions, and trauma.

Have you tried talk therapy without significant results? Have you watched the videos, read the books, listened to the podcasts, and still you are suffering or finding it hard to change or maintain change? Traditional talk therapy may have not worked for you because you cannot talk to the part of the brain that holds the memories that are “the roots” of your symptoms and pain. Growing up, you may have not had all your needs met consistently, resulting in challenges when you attempt to get close, or maintain closeness, with others. All humans have a universal need to feel safe, secure, and to be understood. You deserve to have that.

I opened a mental health practice because after a decade working in traditional counseling settings, I am most drawn to supporting individuals interested in empathically instilling acceptance for themselves and the way they have learned to survive within their environment. I work best with teens and young adults who tend to over-think and want to lean to befriend their feelings. If you find yourself struggling with transitions, managing emotions or trusting yourself and others, I would be honored to support you in discovering ways to reduce tension and increase understanding around what your “symptoms” are trying to tell you.

I have a great admiration and respect for my clients who've chosen to do the difficult task of examining themselves and taking risks to improve their lives. I work with adolescent and adult individuals and couples in a sincere and supportive capacity to address issues of grief, trauma, career difficulties, infertility and parenting, sexuality, life choices, relationships, depression, anxiety, and more. I invite your inquiries and can be reached by phone or email.

I am taking new in-the-field counselors looking for internship supervision. I am willing to take a non-traditional approach to therapy sessions. I work from a holistic and cognitive behavioral approach. My approach involves physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects we experience daily. When discussing areas of concern, I include how one area in life can affect others, focusing on the person as a whole and not on a set of symptoms. I guide my clients to find ways of releasing unwanted energy and emotions by using techniques that help work through the body, such as breathwork, tapping, and many other techniques.
