Welcome! My name is Stephanie and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 10 years of experience in the field. I earned my degree from Fordham University and have professional experience in both outpatient and school-based clinical settings. I am passionate about supporting individuals who may be navigating depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, relationships, or life transitions.
My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and client-centered. I believe therapy should be tailored to each individual's unique needs, experiences, and goals. I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and strengths-based interventions to help clients develop healthy coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and build self-confidence.
During our first session, clients can expect a welcoming, supportive, and judgment-free environment where they can feel comfortable sharing their experiences. We will take time to get to know one another, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore your current concerns, strengths, and goals. I believe in moving at a pace that feels comfortable for each individual while building trust and establishing a strong therapeutic relationship. Together, we will begin identifying areas of focus and developing goals to support your emotional well-being and personal growth. My priority is to ensure you feel heard, understood, and supported throughout the process!
