  • “Stephanie has been my guide and helper throughout some of the hardest events in my life, she truly cares and it shows in her work ethic and her drive to continue to meet our goals in every session. She is gentle, but if necessary she respectfully reframes the situation to challenge your thinking. I feel safe in her care, and I feel a positive change has took place in my life as a result of her services.”

    Current client

  • Since I’ve started my sessions with Stephanie in August 2022, I’ve noticed a massive improvement in my mental/emotional health, social relationships and how I manage stress as a very stressed person. Stephanie’s approach to therapy works wonders for me, and she really gets me to think and make connections (what I’m saying versus what I’ve said in previous sessions- etc). She is very respectful and warm in our interactions. I really value Stephanie as a therapist because, in my specific situation, she understands what I’m going through and guides me to a healthier state of mind using therapeutic communication. If Stephanie wasn’t literally my therapist I would consider her a friend- that’s how safe I feel with her. She is exactly who you want to have as your therapist.
