Hi there, I'm Stephanie!

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I focus on helping clients build insight, emotional awareness, and practice tools they can apply in daily life, while also creating space to explore deeper patterns, relationships, and past experiences. I believe therapy works best when clients feel both supported and gently challenged.

My focus

I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm. I support clients who want to better understand themselves, strengthen relationships, and build healthier coping patterns in their daily lives.

My approach

My approach to care is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual's unique experiences and goals. Having worked across high-acuity settings and longer-term therapeutic environments, I understand how mental challenges show up differently depending on life context, stressors and support systems.
