Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Stephanie Wallace, and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist. I have a strong interest in helping people navigate relationship issues, life transitions, and impacts of trauma.

I am a trauma-informed therapist that provides strength and resilience-based therapy to individuals. I have training in Emotion Focused Therapy, Gottman Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, Trauma Informed LGBTQ+ Care, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training.

My approach to therapy

I offer empathy, safety, compassion, respect, and perspective while helping you to explore and improve your relationship to yourself, others, and the world-at-large.

I have extensive experience working with survivors of childhood abuse and neglect, domestic violence, PTSD, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, military, and LGBTQ+. I have lived experience with recovering from childhood abuse, complex trauma, grief, addiction, economic hardship, and relationship issues.

What you can expect from me

I believe safe relationships are the foundation for mental health. Through therapy, we learn about our automatic responses to life (based on what we learned in relationships). After we see our automatic responses, there is freedom to choose how we respond.
