Stephen Marley

My communication style

I’m warm, conversational, and direct without being judgmental. I won’t simply sit back and nod. I ask questions, offer perspective, and challenge patterns when helpful. My goal is for you to feel comfortable talking openly while leaving sessions with something useful to think about or work on.

My journey to mental healthcare

For more than 34 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people through difficult and important seasons of life. I’m drawn to this work because I enjoy helping people better understand themselves and their relationships, challenge old patterns, make difficult decisions, and find a clearer path forward.

My goals for you

We start by identifying what brought you to therapy and what you want to be different. Together, we turn that into practical, achievable goals and identify the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I often suggest things to think about or practice between sessions so our work carries into everyday life.

Our first session

Our first session is about getting to know you, not just identifying symptoms. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what’s happening in your life and relationships, what’s working, what isn’t, and what you want to change. You don’t need to arrive with everything figured out.

I identify as...

• Male
• Caucasian or White
• Christian
