The anxiety that keeps your mind racing at night, the relationships that feel chaotic no matter how hard you try, the drinking or substance use that started as a way to cope and now feels like its own problem.
I'll meet you exactly where you are, but I won't let you stay stuck there. For clients navigating substance use, I don't lead with abstinence as the only option. If you're not there yet, we'll focus on harm reduction and work toward what you actually want your life to look like. Shame has no place here, and neither does a one-size-fits-all approach.

The ideal client is anyone brave enough to put themselves first and ask for help. The ideal client is receptive to the therapeutic process and is direct, open, and vulnerable. They also understand that the therapeutic process takes time, and one does not get there overnight. The ideal client is patient with themselves and can give themselves grace and permission to grow. The client will have the goal of personal self-development and is ready to do the work. The ideal client does not expect me to "fix" them but understands that a clinician is a form of support on their journey and that we will accomplish any goals together.

You’ve been carrying a lot for a long time. Showing up for everyone else while quietly feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally drained, or disconnected from yourself. You show up for others and keep going even when you feel exhausted. Maybe you find yourself overthinking, struggling with boundaries, replaying conversations in your mind, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. On the outside, you may appear strong and put together, but internally, you are exhausted from carrying so much on your own. Deep down, you know something needs to change. You are just not sure where to begin.

My focus is on providing a therapeutic space for individuals and families who wish to address depression, anxiety, anger or other emotional needs. As a therapist, I understand that it can be a hard road to healing. Accepting a little help along the way should not be seen as a sign of weakness, but rather a step toward a greater you!

Taking that first step to begin therapy takes courage. Trying to find a new therapist is daunting. I have deep respect for the bravery clients must have to embark in therapy. Many of us have experienced trauma, battled addiction, or been depressed. I feel fortunate to be allowed into the most vulnerable parts of my clients’ lives and I take that responsibility seriously. I will show compassion, acceptance, and authenticity during every interaction. I was a patient long before I was a therapist, so I come to therapy understanding the fear and anxiety that arises with allowing yourself to open up to someone.

I enjoy working with clients who come to me in crisis with some awareness that their existing coping resources and skills have been overwhelmed to the point they need some help to grow through the situation. Though it typically begins concretely with stress and conflict management, this work often deepens into fruitful reexamination of personal values, family dynamics, problematic relationship patterns, and existential or spiritual themes. I see individual problems as often having been forged in the crucible of one's family of origin, which has often severely limited one's ability to respond well to all of life's demands.

As a counselor and consultant for over 20 years, I have had the privilege to work with a variety of clients in diverse settings. My licenses and certifications also reflect a diverse background and experience as a Master Addictions Counselor (MAC), Family and Marriage Therapist (LMFT), Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Master Career Counselor (NCCC, MCC) and Employee Assistance Consultant (CEAP). The primary focus of my experience has been in family, marriage, career and substance abuse counseling. In general, I use an eclectic approach to counseling but tend to emphasize cognitive-behavioral and solution focus.

Hi! I’m Stephanie and I’ve been in practice as a psychotherapist for over 10 years. I believe the relational connection offered in therapy is a big part of the healing process, as we all have a core need to feel truly seen and heard. I’m committed to providing an attentive, consistent, and intentional approach that enables emotional vulnerability for my clients. I believe the only way to heal our pain is to face it, and it’s easier to do this in an empathetic space. I specialize in addressing a variety of concerns including disordered eating, body dysmorphia, codependency/relationship issues, and anxiety and obsessive disorders.
