Steven Fields

My communication style

I am pretty down-to-earth. I try to reserve my professional jargon for my industry (i.e., the managed care system, other professionals); I try to make mental health/psychological functioning tangible and accessible in language and in practice.

My journey to mental healthcare

In retrospect, I have always used counselor-esque skills: folx have felt comfortable sharing with me about their experiences, especially their relationships. My experiences with grief and my relationship with my first therapist "put the nail in the coffin" about my becoming a therapist.

My goals for you

Treatment planning is a dynamic process that ebbs and flows. We may find other goals aside from those that brought you to therapy throughout our work, and that is okay.

Our first session

My first sessions are mental health evaluations. I administer a pretty hefty historical assessment to get a sense of who my client is, what they have experienced, what their strengths are, and what they would like therapy to look like.

I identify as...

• Male
• Black or African American, Hispanic or Latinx
• Christian, Interfaith, Non-denominational, Spiritual
