Tanya Stephenson

My communication style

I believe in building a collaborative environment that fosters a strong alliance between you and you. I prefer clear, direct communication and shared understanding that growth is difficult. During your journey, I will remain focused on your goals, maintain positive regard, and ensure a safe environment where you can express yourself.

My journey to mental healthcare

Within my own family system, I witnessed the impact of untreated mental health needs lead to in a person's life. This experience led to a deep belief that every person deserves care and support. I continue to lean on this belief in my work today and strive to meet each client with an open mind and belief in their ability to effect life change.

My goals for you

I will seek to understand your personal goals and work collaboratively with you to set realistic, time-limited goals that help you to see the progress you are making in your journey.

Our first session

At our first session, we will spend time exploring your reasons for seeking therapy and begin to develop a plan that fits your needs as we move forward. This may include discussing your learning style and past therapeutic interventions that were helpful or not helpful to build a healthy therapeutic experience.
