Very kind and caring person and professional

Stephanie is great. She pushes me to come up with the answers and solutions I need for problems I have while not spoon feeding me "her opinion on how to handle it". She makes me come up with the answer i am most comfortable with and has really helped me to grow as an individual and conquer my biggest challenges.

"It's like you're surfing... The same wave that can be a source of pain can be a beautiful flowing grace and source of power. It's all a matter of how you respond to it." Trey Anastasio

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and nationally certified. I have worked in this field for 9 years and have gained experience from many different settings and populations. I have experience working with addiction issues as well as depression, anxiety, and trauma. My work focuses a lot on values and being in the present moment.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Stephanie helped me in the past but I'm going through a life roadbump and she's helping me right now

K.I.·Jun 2021

Stephanie always makes me feel heard and is so genuine in the advice she gives. Previous counselors I had before coming to Better Help made me feel like they were just outlining generic advice, where Stephanie always talks about me specifically, who I am, and my specific situation. She has taken the time to get to know me and what I value and helps to center me back on those personal goals. She is a huge reason why I am in the good mental place that I am today. Most importantly, I love the strategies that she gives me to navigate every day situations that I find challenging. We've been working together over a year and I'm so grateful for the growth she has helped me achieve.

L.A.·Apr 2021

Stephanie has been great for me! She's completely changed my outlook on life and has helped me work through some deep rooted issues, so that I know how to handle them when they arise. Shes been one of the best blessings in my life. I like that she always listens and is communicating despite how long winded my stories get some times, showing that she actively engages in helping me get better. I've had several therapists in my life and Stephanie is the only one I've stuck with long term. She's awesome at what she does.

J.A.·Feb 2021

Stephanie has been a great therapist for me. She's great at listening and offering options for how to deal with my problems and is just a really warm and friendly person and fun to talk to in general. I highly recommend Stephanie, especially if you're new to therapy like me - she'll hold your hand but also give you the tough truths you need to hear. Thanks so much!

A.N.·Feb 2021

I am extremely pleased with the progress I have made in my life, as a result of talking with Stephanie on a weekly basis, and texting with her over the past year! Well worth it!!!

T.E.·Jul 2020

I love that she lets me talk out what's in my head before we start working on anything, then manages to find the one that is the biggest. I feel a lot better having someone like her that can help.

K.I.·Sep 2019

Stephanie is amazing. I love that she takes the time to respond meaningfully to me, no matter how frequently i message her. She's thoughtful and extremely good at helping me see situations from more than just my own perspective. She does an amazing job of helping you grow through your problems and really is a fantastic support structure. My short time with Stephanie so far has changed my life more than i possibly could have expected.

J.A.·Aug 2019

Stephanie is very responsive and always gets back to me in a timely manner which I greatly appreciate. On the phone, and during online conversations, she is positive, thoughtful, and friendly. She makes me feel that she cares about helping me. Her advice is sound as well as thought-provoking. I will continue to have contact with her on a regular basis to maintain good mental health because this is just as important as taking care of my physical health needs. I feel she can help me be a better person, accomplish more out of life, and reach higher levels of self-awareness.

T.E.·Jul 2019

So far I enjoy conversing with Stephanie.

C.H.·Jun 2019

Thanks for the help thus far I appreciate it, Stephanie is great.

Stephanie definitely let me think about things in a different way, challenge emotional suppressions and find realizations or meanings in certain habits or patterns.

F.A.·May 2018

Stephanie is patient and supportive. My progress is slow, but she makes me feel that I can one day feel better.

A.Z.·May 2017

Stephanie has truly been a blessing that I was not expecting. She really takes the time to listen to my thoughts, my feelings and responds in a caring, professional manner. She makes me think from a different perspective that I may not have thought about and has truly been making a difference in my life. Thank you Stephanie.
