I utilize a trauma-informed approach that blends evidence-based interventions and clinical theories ( such as CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Experiential, Choice Theory, & Polyvagal Theory), psychoeducation, nature, yoga, and mindfulness.
Hi, I'm Steph, and I love getting curious about the self! I find fulfillment in collaborating with individuals who desire to lead an authentic, balanced life. My ideal clients possess a genuine curiosity about their subconscious and its impact on their well-being. My clinical lens integrates the Yoga Sutras with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the science of our nervous system. My therapeutic approach empowers you to look within yourself for answers and trust your intuition, and my role as your therapist is to draw from my knowledge and experience as a clinical therapist, yoga teacher, and outdoor guide to help guide your process.

I specialize in helping people explore and connect with their best selves, offering practical tools through mindfulness, cognitive therapies, and a variety of other modalities as needed.
The folks I work with often feel stuck while navigating anxiety, trauma, or self-discovery. They may struggle with self-doubt, fear, or past wounds that keep them from fully embracing who they are. Their goal is to break free from these patterns and develop self-love, clarity, and peace. They want to understand themselves deeply and learn to thrive in a way that feels authentic, but need guidance and support along the way.

Seeking therapy is a form of wisdom and self-love. It allows you to connect within yourself so you can grow, accept and find peace. Therapy should be hopeful and positive. It should help you move forward from feeling “stuck”. I hope to empower you and your story and to assist you in forming positive self-talk. At times our thoughts can be negative and can create inner discord. I want to help support you in pausing and redirecting negative self-talk to a positive self-talk. My goal is to provide a judgement-free and inclusive space so you can build the skills to lead a healthy and happy life.

Life experiences can cause pain and hurt so deeply that one’s soul is broken into many parts and can only mend when those parts come together again. The brokenness causes individuals to have problems interacting with others, themselves, and God. Counseling provides the skills and knowledge needed to help individuals learn to embody themselves and heal their injured parts.

I was originally trained as a generalist therapist. This means I am able to work efficiently with a wide range of clients. My specialty is with those who have faced identity based trauma. Identity based trauma includes experiencing trauma on the basis of being in a marginalized community such as race, gender, sexuality, religion, etc.. I also specialize in workplace fatigue/stress. I acknowledge our society encourages a growing list of demands with little compensation or value to care/rest. I help these individuals find a balance in their routine.

When we face challenging transitions, uncertainty and anxiety, suffering, or loss, getting some support outside ourselves can help us navigate our world in new and meaningful ways. My approach begins with meeting you at this moment in your life to support you in understanding and growing through your experiences. By first knowing and accepting ourselves and experiences as they are, we can then work to develop more helpful ways to be in relationship with ourselves, our circumstances, and the people in our lives that we love and care for.

Do you feel stuck in a life that isn’t fulfilling? Do you want to level up, and live a life aligned with your truest self? You may feel stuck in a life that isn't aligned to your authentic desires and values. You may find yourself living according to societal, cultural, and family expectations that don’t match who you are as a unique individual. Perhaps you have an unfulfilling job, or your relationships lack true intimacy. Fitting into your work or home environment has resulted in suppressed emotions and hiding behind a facade. Unhealed wounds, traumas, and limiting beliefs keep you playing small.

I believe that in therapy, the focus should first be on learning to gain acceptance of ourselves. I feel that our beliefs about ourselves are paramount because they shape the beliefs that we have about other people and in turn, the rest of our environment. After we identify the beliefs about ourselves that need to be adjusted, we can work on how to improve those beliefs, which will improve our interactions with others and the way that we see the world. I look forward to helping others with that process.
