Hi, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor at Love Therapy and Consulting, LLC, where I work with individuals and couples navigating life’s transitions, identity exploration, and emotional pain. My clients often come to therapy carrying grief, spiritual confusion, relationship challenges, or the weight of not feeling like they "fit" in traditional spaces. If that resonates with you, you’re not alone.
I support men, women, and nonbinary folks who may be quietly carrying a lot: the pressure to stay strong, the silence around emotional pain, or the complexity of being both resilient and overwhelmed.

Do you put others' needs above yours? Are you living the life you want or just surviving? Now more than ever, people are feeling exhausted just trying to get through the motions of each day. I'm going to be real with you, therapy is hard work, but figuring out this living-on-a-flying-rock thing takes some extra help. My ideal client is someone who is ready to stop being a people pleaser and to be able to say NO without feeling guilty about finally putting themselves first. I often work with clients who have mood concerns, relationship issues, self-esteem struggles, or family conflict.

Hi, I'm Stephanie Haft, PhD. I'm a Clinical Psychologist. I provide evidence-based treatment for skin-picking, trichotillomania (hair pulling), tics, panic attacks, OCD, trauma, general anxiety, phobias (e.g., public speaking, driving, flying, elevators, medical anxiety, social situations), PTSD, and sleep difficulties. Most patients achieve their treatment goals in 8-12 sessions. I use a flexible approach to individually tailor evidence-based tools and treatments to each client based on values, culture, and client needs. I love working with patients who are motivated to self-discover and grow.

I believe therapy helps us understand the power of the mind. This is especially useful when we feel disconnected, marginalized, or stigmatized. When we feel this way, learning how the mind channels this information through thoughts, feelings, emotions, and perceptions, can influence us to recognize our own cognitive processes and how they impact our life. If we attend to our cognitive processes in a healthy way, it may lead to regulation of mood, clarity, balance and feelings of peace. We start to evolve and accept certain things about ourselves. We begin to feel at peace from within. I help my clients through this process.

My ideal client is someone navigating the effects of trauma, whether from military service, personal loss, or life transitions, seeking healing beyond surface-level coping.

Intrusive thoughts can be relentless — and the compulsions that follow often feel just as exhausting. If you're navigating the confusion, fear, and frustration that OCD can bring, you're not alone. I specialize in helping individuals better understand their OCD, build distress tolerance, and find relief through evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), all within a space that centers your humanity, not just your symptoms. If you’re looking for a therapist who deeply understands the nuance of OCD and who brings both warmth and structure to the process of healing, I’d be honored to work with you.

As a psychotherapist, I create a safe space whereby building a relationship, unraveling issues, demystifying oneself, voicing dreams, and developing wisdom and insight, one can emerge from (and exist in) the forest that is life with a deeper understanding of how to navigate one's mind and the world around us. It is my philosophy that great psychotherapy not only addresses the issues on the table, but also guides one towards greater overall life fulfillment. I have extensive experience in CBT, ACT, psychodynamic and trauma approaches working with men, women, teens and LGBTQ individuals.

What are the advantages of seeing a Native American therapist?
Therapists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions through various forms of talk therapy and behavioral interventions. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is an essential part of feeling supported and understood in care. For many Native American individuals, working with a provider who shares or respects their cultural background can foster a deeper sense of trust and connection in the therapeutic process. Native American therapists may be especially well-equipped to address topics such as historical trauma, intergenerational grief, and cultural identity—factors that can significantly shape the mental health experiences of Native American clients. These providers may also be knowledgeable about and incorporate Indigenous healing traditions, which can be beneficial for clients seeking this approach. Additionally, Native American therapists may be more familiar with community resources, support networks, or other culturally-aligned providers who can offer further support.
How to find a Native American therapist?
Psychology Today’s online directory is a useful tool for finding a Native American therapist. You can filter for providers who identify as Native American or who mention working with Indigenous populations and highlight cultural competence in their profiles. Look for signs such as experience with tribal communities, familiarity with Native traditions, or a focus on trauma-informed care. Depending on your preferences and needs, it may also be important to ask whether a provider offers telehealth, which therapeutic approaches they use, and whether they accept your insurance. If you're unable to find a therapist who personally identifies as Native American, you may also consider providers who have experience working with Native clients or who demonstrate a clear commitment to cultural humility and respect for Native American beliefs and traditions. You might also consider a blended approach—for example, seeing a therapist for talk therapy while also seeing a Native healer or counselor for more culturally-specific support.
