Stefanie Wagner
If anxiety or stress is getting in the way of the life you want, you don’t have to figure it out on your own. Maybe you feel constantly overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, afraid of what might happen, or like anxiety is keeping you from doing the things that matter to you. Therapy can help you understand what’s happening and find a way forward. I work with adults, children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, phobias, depersonalization and derealization (DP/DR). I also specialize in depression, trauma, relationship and family concerns, narcissistic abuse, and other interpersonal challenges, as well as ADHD and Autism in children and adults.
Strengths
I think one of my biggest strengths is that I genuinely care about the person sitting across from me. I know how hard it can be to ask for help and to admit that you’re struggling. I want my clients to feel comfortable being honest, never judged, and never like they have to have everything figured out before they come to therapy. I’ll meet you where you are, help you make sense of what you’re experiencing, and work with you to find a path forward.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We’ll work together to identify patterns of thinking that may be increasing your anxiety, depression, stress, or self-doubt and learn ways to look at situations from a more balanced perspective. CBT is not about simply “thinking positive”—it’s about understanding what is happening, challenging thoughts that may be keeping you stuck, and developing practical skills you can use in your everyday life.
