Stephanie Burgess

Let's Connect (512) 877-1672

You might look like you’re holding it all together but inside feel anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected. I work with adults who have experienced trauma—such as abusive relationships, sexual assault, death of a loved one, or difficult childhood experiences—and feel stuck in patterns they can’t seem to shift. Many are tired of overthinking, shutting down, or feeling on edge and want deeper healing, not just coping. If you’re ready to understand your responses and begin moving forward, you’re in the right place.

I specialize in EMDR therapy to help process and heal from trauma. This approach goes beyond talking, helping your mind and body resolve what feels stuck so it no longer has the same intensity. I offer virtual sessions providing a structured, supportive space to do this work from where you feel most comfortable.

Starting therapy—especially for trauma—can feel overwhelming. You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you and create a space where you feel safe, supported, and understood. If you’re ready for something deeper than just coping, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
