In Person Therapists in Micanopy, FL

Ginger Stegall is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMFT, LMHC) with over 35 years of experience. She focuses on treating clients of all ages who are suffering from developmental disorders, trauma, PTSD, anger issues, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, PTSD, bipolar disorder, chronic stress, illness, family issues, children's behavioral issues, women's issues, couple's difficulties, and more.

I am passionate about providing therapy for children, families, and adults who have experienced trauma, including abuse, neglect, sexual assault, and domestic violence. The clients who come to see me are often feeling angry, aggressive, depressed, or anxious. Parents who seek treatment for their children express feeling confused and frustrated by their child's behaviors, and don't know how to help. Adults who have experienced violent, controlling relationships with their partners can feel hopeless, worthless, and alone. When someone has experienced scary, overwhelming things, they can feel stuck and unsure how to move forward.

I focus on working with clients to recognize your inherent worthiness at work and within relationships, build trust in your inner wisdom, and integrate mindfulness and spirituality into your daily life. Whether you are coming out of a painful breakup, redefining your career path, navigating how to ask for what you need in partnership, or creating a kinder relationship with yourself, our work together can help you build self-confidence, self-awareness, and stress management techniques. My ideal client is someone who wants to embody their creative side, is curious about spirituality, and longs to step into their greatness.

But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to heal your emotional wounds. You’re ready to learn how to be less reactive and more confident. Most of all, you are ready to not be held back by the past or your fears— you are ready to live with peace and freedom as the best version of yourself.

For the longest time, they relied on you to be the strong and supportive friend. You show up when others are in need, you always offer your support. But after years of giving and giving, you're feeling overwhelmed, resentful, and disconnected. Now, you are certain that you cannot keep this up forever. You’ve thought about starting therapy, but it is so hard to find a therapist who understands the things that you have been through. Trauma's impact can be deep, especially when compounded by racial and cultural experiences. You need a therapist who understands you as a trauma survivor, can help you heal, and live the life you deserve.

Though I relish working with a diverse set of issues, I specialize in helping clients in the midst of a transition. Graduating from college, entering adulthood, starting or leveling up in a career, maintaining long-term relationships, aging, or parenting are all examples of some of the transitions that many of my clients are navigating. These transitions often require a self-reevaluation to take stock of where you are today and what’s preventing you from becoming a reimagined version of yourself.
