Hello! My name is Stephanie (she/her/hers) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in working with individuals and couples through life adjustments, job changes, and finding meaning in your day-to-day. I am happy to help you reach your goals in managing your mental health and your life! I am eclectic with my therapy approach and start with where you are at and what best suits you!
I often work with clients dealing with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, or people coping with change. I also specifically work with families impacted by the child welfare triad (Birth Family, Foster/ Adoptive Parents/ Child). I am body-positive and LGBTQ+ friendly.
You can expect to feel empowered and encouraged after our sessions with tools to manage the things that come up in life with more ease.
