Therapists in Portsmouth, RI

Therapy takes patience and openness from all whom are involved in the process. I have counseled couples, individuals, and families trying to manage psychological, emotional, and behavioral stressors. Many of my clients are seeking help with PTSD, grief/loss, eating/body image issues, family/relational situations, and sexual concerns.

Are you feeling stuck, depressed, anxious? Have you tried therapy before but didn’t get direction or feedback? Have you been trying to make a change in your life, career, relationships but not sure how? Are you struggling in your marriage or career or feeling overwhelmed or confused? Finding new ways to deal with old struggles without direction and support can contribute to depression, anxiety, fear, or conflict. Therapy can teach you ways to cope with life's challenges and achieve a healthy balanced lifestyle that is satisfying, enjoyable, and peaceful. Your life can change in a day. Let today be that day. We serve all ages!

As a Marriage and Family Therapist I work with individuals and couples treating a variety of relational and mental health issues. As an assistant neuropsychological associate to our staff Psychiatrist, I assist in the diagnosis and treatment of anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, attentional issues and cognitive complaints. Through the assessment process, together and in collaboration with our staff Psychiatrist, we establish differential diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We are now testing for Autism Diagnosis.

I am a firm believer in the transformative power of therapy. So often, I encounter individuals who just feel "stuck" in their lives. Some of them have felt this way for years before seeking help! Working collaboratively, I strive to guide clients in finding the obstacles standing in the way of their ability to live their best lives.

Success, change, happiness, hope, kindness, balance - these, among other traits, are things that we strive for & work towards in life but at times feel like they are completely & totally out of reach. Sometimes there are roadblocks & barriers that make the future seem unobtainable and that there is nothing but darkness ahead. It's moments like these that define us. When we are at a crossroads and important choices need to be made - this is where I come in. I wish to offer support, guidance, and help with the hope and intention that together, change can happen, skills can be built and goals can be attained.

Sometimes we may lose our way on the winding road life sets forth. Stephanie holds faith that every individual can embrace their ability to change, grow & recover. Perhaps it may not be easy to admit we might benefit from the support of another to help us regain strength. Someone to listen, provide feedback, validation, insight & education can help to regain control & improve lives. We may seek another to listen to where we are at in our lives, without judgment, biases & preconceived notions. Sharing details of our lives is a display of bravery. Stephanie is sensitive of hesitations to seek help & hopes to provide comfort.

Arriving at this point where you are ready to make forward progress towards creating a better life is a huge step- it takes courage and insight. Navigating your way towards a happier, healthier, more balanced, and fulfilled life is not easy and we are not meant to do it alone. As your counselor I will work with you in a collaborative process- we will work towards the life you strive for while providing tools, motivation, support, empathy, and insight along the way. I have experience working with adolescents, young adults, adults and couples in the areas of anxiety, postpartum, self esteem, relationships, and life transitions.
