C Lin Stephens

My communication style

I work toward providing a safe and nurturing environment for communication. I am very open-minded and accepting of life choices and circumstances. I am a good listener and willing to provide feedback.

My journey to mental healthcare

I started my academic career as a nursing student. I soon realized my favorite rotation was on the psychiatric unit. I enjoy talking with people and helping them recognize how the events of their past may have contributed to their situation today. I enjoy working with people to empower their personal strengths for self-improvement.

My goals for you

In treatment, I am most interested in focusing on and promoting the goals my clients have identified for themselves. I will help my clients manage their goals into reasonable expectations while addressing any obstacles that may arise toward their goal completion.

Our first session

Generally, the first session is the opportunity for you to get to know me and for me to get to know you. Therefore, the initial session is typically focused on assessment, information gathering, and rapport development. I may ask a lot of questions, but I also welcome any questions you may have.

I identify as...
