Great to meet you!

I love the idea of helping others overcome anxiety/depression and help people achieve their life goals. I want to pursue my career in working with individuals long term to improve their well being. I am bilingual and provide therapy in both English & Spanish.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I believe that the most important traits for therapists are compassion, excellent listening skills and the ability to verbally communicate. Therapists need to have compassion so that they can connect with their clients, excellent listening skills so that their clients feel valued and the ability to verbally communicate with their clients to give them advice and help them articulate their feelings.

What you can expect from our first session

I want to help clients focus on on what’s truly important in order to help me to create the best plan of treatment based on the response.

Stephenie's style is

Affirming
Empowering
Solution-oriented
