Hello, I am a licensed Marriage Family Therapist. I provide counseling services for couples and individuals. I have a solid foundation in helping clients work with their relationships, of all types. I offer practical tools and feedback to help you communicate more effectively in a way that you can feel heard. My style is Emotionally Focused as well as Solution Focused, so we will discover together the deeper issues that drive your reoccurring conflicts, as well your strengths, so you can truly move past resentments and blocks once and for all. This work that we do together will help move you in a direction towards a life that feels right for you. Thank you so much and I look forward to meeting you.
Our first session is really just a chance for us to get to know each other. My style is friendly, collaborative, and down to earth I’ll ask a few questions, nothing intense, just things that help me understand what’s bringing you in. We will talk about what’s been feeling hard, and what you’re hoping will feel different. We’ll go at your pace We’ll talk about what you want out of therapy We’ll end with a sense of direction and a shared understanding of what feels most important to focus on next.
I have a great deal of success working with relationships of all kinds. IF you are looking to gain a better understanding of yourself and how you relate to others or if you are currently in a relationship and would like to improve your connection. My style addresses the underlying issues that will help secure your bond as well as help you improve communication, navigate conflict and form a plan moving forward.
I work best with people who want to feel more at ease with themselves and more connected in their relationships. I enjoy helping individuals reduce anxiety, build confidence, and learn how to get along better with the people who matter to them. If you’re looking for a better sense of clarity within yourself we’ll be a great fit.”

I was absolutely comfortable with Stephanie! She was easy to talk to and seems to have a logical and reasonable response to the things I tell her. I like how direct she is and she is very accepting of things I share with her. I wish I could choose more of what stands out about her because there are way more than just two qualities! I am definitely looking forward to our next session
