I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on treating acute and relational trauma with teens, individuals, and couples. I have been working as a psychotherapist for over 15 years. I believe that we heal in relationship to another, rather than trying to do it all alone. My style is warm, attentive and an active participant in your healing journey.
I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from trauma, attachment wounds, and relational pain through an attachment-based, experiential approach rooted in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP).
My work is informed by attachment science and neuroscience, and grounded in the belief that healing happens within safe, emotionally attuned relationships. AEDP recognizes that when emotional pain is met with genuine connection, compassion, and support, the nervous system naturally moves toward healing, integration, and greater resilience.
Welcome, I'm glad you're here. I wear many different hats and enjoy working with adolescents and adults to address low self esteem, communication, anxious thoughts, scattered mind, or boundary setting. I also enjoy working with individuals who may be struggling with financial stress, career fulfillment and burnout, as I believe this is inextricable linked to mental health and wellbeing. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to support you.
I have a passion for working with adolescents and their families, as well as both younger and older adults individually. I enjoy working with clientele from diverse backgrounds and I strive to create a culturally sensitive, inclusive and affirming space.
I'm a licensed professional counselor with a Master's degree in Art Therapy and Family Therapy and over 15 years experience in the field. I specialize in working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, and postpartum issues. My approach incorporates training in Structural Family Therapy, Attachment Theory, EMDR, Parts Work, and Reiki, blending evidence-based practices with holistic care to support your healing journey.
Hi, I'm Stefanie, and I'm so glad you're here! In my work as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I value creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported. I believe therapy works best when it is collaborative, empowering, and tailored to you! Through my experiences, education, and advanced fellowship training, I've gained insightful experience working with individuals, couples, and families as they navigate trauma, life transitions, and challenges with anxiety and depression.
Using multiple approaches including EMDR, IFS (also known as Parts work), CBT, attachment and somatic-based interventions, we'll work together to better understand your unique experiences as we build meaningful pathways towards lasting change.
Welcome! I’m a therapist who believes therapy should be as unique as you are. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; instead, I look at the 'big picture.' By bringing together your mind, body, and emotional well-being, we can create a space where you feel truly supported and empowered to grow.
I work from the lens of wellness for the whole person, incorporating mindfulness, and physical (including nutritional), mental, and emotional well-being, through the context of relationship. I believe growth and healing come from power held in the individual I am working with, and I aim to empower each person to access this from within themselves.

I apply a holistic and person-centered approach to therapy. I recognize that by creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment, clients can learn to redefine dysfunctional boundaries, to reconnect with a sense of meaning for their lives, and to ultimately make lasting changes in their lives and relationships. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in navigating life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, gender identity, sexual identity, trauma, OCD, narcissistic abuse, adult children of emotionally immature parents, and relationship strain.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Harrisonburg, VA
Searching for therapists in Harrisonburg starts with identifying the kind of support that fits what you want to address. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Harrisonburg therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Harrisonburg, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location, commute time, and appointment availability. If virtual care fits your schedule better, look for therapists with evening, weekend, or flexible openings. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Harrisonburg can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, see availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
