LCSW, 9 years of experience
Welcome! I'm Stephanie Freeman,MSW, LCSW, LCAS. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
Our first session will consist of getting to know each other and identifying areas that you would like to focus on in therapy.
My approach is warm and supportive and walking along side of you to reach your personal goals.
I have worked and assisted clients with a variety of concerns which include, Depression, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Addiction and Trauma.
Stephanie Freeman offers therapy covered by Kaiser Permanente - Medicaid and UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid in Virginia.
My approach combines cognitive behavioral theray, dialectical behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to target and challenge negative and irrational thoughts that create unwanted behaviors.
