Dr. Steve Stein is a licensed psychologist with over 50 years of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. His work is grounded in a client-centered approach that prioritizes the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for effective treatment. Dr. Stein recognizes that psychological change requires both courage and self-reflection. With clinical sensitivity and respect for each client’s readiness, he engages in thoughtful, direct inquiry to help individuals explore underlying conflicts and less conscious aspects.
He utilizes an eclectic range of evidence-informed therapeutic modalities, informed by decades of clinical experience. His work often focuses on addressing internal distress that contributes to relational difficulties, as well as supporting individuals in processing and resolving trauma. He is also the Clinical Director of NorthStar Day Treatment.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. I encourage you to evaluate me to determine if I am the right "fit" for you. For example, am I asking questions that make sense to you? Do you believe that I am "getting" you and that I can help? Trust your instincts.
