Stephanie Oakley

Hello and welcome! I have been working as a licensed mental health clinician for over 15 years, with experience in both inpatient and outpatient mental health and substance use treatment settings. Working across these levels of care has allowed me to support individuals facing a wide range of challenges— from acute crises to long-term personal growth. Whether you are feeling motivated to make changes or feeling stuck and unsure what the next step looks like, you are welcome here. We can work together to build insight, develop coping strategies, and move toward meaningful growth in a way that feels manageable and authentic to you.

My style is eclectic and flexible. I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy, and Humanistic approaches. This allows us to tailor treatment to your unique needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

I understand that taking the first step toward counseling can feel intimidating, so I strive to create a low-pressure, supportive environment where you can feel safe and comfortable. Therapy does not have to feel overwhelming, it can be a space to start sorting things out at your own pace.
