Support for what you're carrying.

Helping the past feel less present.

Trauma can come from a single event, repeated experiences, relationships, loss, or periods of life when you didn’t feel safe or supported. You may notice anxiety, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, painful memories, or reactions that seem to appear before you can control them. I offer trauma-informed therapy that works at your pace, drawing from approaches including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), CBT, mindfulness, somatic strategies, and attachment-focused work.

When your mind rarely seems to switch off.

Anxiety can show up as racing thoughts, overthinking, physical tension, avoidance, difficulty making decisions, or a persistent feeling that something is wrong. Therapy can help you understand what is driving the anxiety while building practical ways to respond differently. The goal isn’t to never feel anxious. It’s to help anxiety take up less space in your life.

Understanding the pattern beneath the argument.

Couples often come to therapy feeling caught in the same conversations, arguments, or periods of disconnection. You may be struggling with communication, trust, intimacy, recurring conflict, or uncertainty about the future of the relationship. Using PACT-informed couples work and an attachment-focused approach, Stephanie helps partners better understand the patterns happening between them, repair ruptures, communicate more effectively, and build a stronger sense of connection.

Conversations that can be hard to have anywhere else.

Sexuality and intimacy can be deeply connected to relationships, self-worth, attachment, stress, and emotional wellbeing. Stephanie supports individuals and couples navigating intimacy concerns, differences in desire, sexual disconnection, and problematic or compulsive pornography use. These conversations are approached openly, respectfully, and without shame or judgment.

Finding your footing when life changes.

Loss and transition can reshape how you understand yourself and your life. This may include the death of someone important, relationship changes, retirement, caregiving changes, menopause, changes in identity, or entering a new stage of life. Therapy can provide space to process what has changed, make room for complicated emotions, and begin finding your footing in what comes next.

Support through the changes that can affect how you feel, relate, and see yourself.

Mental health can be shaped by the physical, emotional, relational, and hormonal changes that happen throughout life. You may be navigating perimenopause or menopause, changes in sexual functioning, shifts in identity, relationship stress, burnout, caregiving demands, or simply feeling unlike yourself. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore what is changing and how it is affecting your mood, confidence, relationships, sexuality, and overall wellbeing. Together, we can work toward greater understanding, practical support, and a stronger sense of yourself through whatever stage of life you are in.
