Stephen Medina is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 7 years of experience providing care to children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and mood-related challenges.

If you have been feeling stuck or overwhelmed by patterns that no longer serve you, my goal is to provide extra support to those who don’t know where to go next. I have over a decade of experience working with folks in all walks of life, whether you are contending with a transition or struggling to manage symptoms of anxiety or depression. My hope is to create a safe space for folks to talk freely and collaborate in order to reach goals they never thought were possible.

My work includes individual and group counseling, risk assessment, and crisis intervention. I have extensive experience supporting students with autism spectrum disorder, emotional disabilities, and significant behavioral challenges, helping them develop adaptive coping, self-regulation, and social skills. I strive to create a supportive and collaborative environment where individuals of all ages feel safe, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change. My approach in addition to my clinical training, I have worked extensively with youth as a certified alpine ski racing coach, helping young athletes build confidence, focus, and resilience through sport.

If you yearn for a more fulfilling relationship, greater self-esteem and self-compassion, healing from the past, and a more enjoyable and purposeful life, it means you’re paying attention. There’s always room for growth. Perhaps you aspire to improve one aspect of your life or several areas. Maybe you feel discouraged and lost because you’ve worked hard to make things better and haven’t seen a difference, or you’re newly aware of the need for a shift in life and this is your first try; either is okay. Successful change doesn’t have to start with self-confidence or a plan. It just requires the willingness to reach out and not take the journey alone. It can feel intimidating and scary to take that first step into therapy, and I deeply value creating a space in which you can feel as comfortable and as emotionally safe as possible to open up as you're ready. I flexibly and thoughtfully integrate evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual and couple, and my style is authentic, compassionate, collaborative, and warm. I'm attentive, actively engaged, and straightforward in sessions, and I firmly believe in the beauty of playfulness and humor. I stay up-to-date with the latest research, and my work is grounded in science. In addition to my work as a therapist, I teach a university course on close relationships. I've also written books on emotional unavailability in romantic relationships and the ways in which denial can create difficulties in some situations while being useful in others. I've been able to help couples transform painful communication patterns, manage conflict more effectively, build greater security and trust, increase intimacy, heal relationship wounds, and resolve uncertainty about their relationship. I've supported individual clients in their journey to treat themselves with more kindness, understand themselves and their relationships more deeply, advance healing from painful losses and other highly stressful experiences (including trauma), cope in healthier ways, and make changes in multiple areas of life. I welcome individuals and couples of diverse races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, beliefs, gender identities, and ages. It's possible to feel less alone, build better relationships, feel more comfortable in your own skin, and create a more satisfying life. Therapy can help you get there, and I'd love to take that journey with you. Please feel free to visit my website and call or email me so we can explore whether I'd be a good fit. You deserve to work with a therapist who is the right match for you, and I offer a free 30-minute consultation phone call so you can see what it's like to talk with me and get a sense of whether I can help. Thank you for stopping by to read this, and I hope to hear from you!

Through therapy, we can work to explore yourself and your relationships and how imbalanced thoughts and unhealthy behaviors lead to negative cycles and unhealthy interactions with the world around you.

I currently provide Telehealth and video-conferencing services only. The outcomes are equally as successful as in-person visits.

Sex and Couples Therapy addresses a myriad of problems including relational anxiety, individual anxiety, depression, differences in desire levels or desire discrepancy, parenting styles, “sex addiction” or out-of-control sexual behavior, infidelity, disability, illness, sexual orientation, gender identity, traumatic experiences, substance use, and more, as well as problems related to privilege and equity in relationships.

I am an eclectic mental health therapist offering online and in-person therapy. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, or unsure how to make sense of your thoughts and emotions, you’re not alone. You don’t have to navigate it on your own. I tailor my approach to meet you where you are, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and behavioral therapy techniques to support your unique needs.

I work with adults struggling with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and addiction who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, triggers, or substance use. These patterns often develop as ways to cope—but they don’t have to define you. My approach is direct, supportive, and practical. We focus on building stability, understanding triggers, and developing tools you can use in daily life. As things feel more manageable, we can begin to process deeper experiences at your pace. If you’re ready for change, I’m here to help. I use evidence-based approaches, including CBT, CPT, and DBT, and am currently training in EMDR. Together, we’ll identify and shift unhelpful patterns, build coping skills, and strengthen resilience. My collaborative, practical style is grounded in helping you feel more balanced, confident, and empowered in your life and relationships. Reaching out takes courage, and it’s normal to feel vulnerable at first. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn, you don’t have to go through it alone. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can make sense of what you’re facing and help you move forward with more clarity and confidence, clarity, and meaningful change

The relationship we have with our family is the method by which we learn to be people. It is how we learn to trust, care and to love. My mission is to assist families with open communication, building trust, and cultivating respect and understanding of each other. My focus is to help individuals, couples and families discover inner strength , energize their goals and dreams, and become aware of their gifts. I provide a neutral space to facilitate self exploration, self discovery and inner growth. I use sincerity and earnestness to help you deeply explore the things that may be holding you back from your true authentic life. Let's work together to learn to grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

I take a holistic approach to therapy. It's important to recognize that anxiety (or depression or stress) is a part of you and not all of you. You are a person who has a particular symptom or difficulty, you are not the anxiety, depression or stress! So when you're looking for help you want to work with a holistic counselor who sees and treats the whole you-- body, mind and spirit. I promote transformation and healing by blending depth therapy, body-focused emotional release, spiritual-growth counseling, expressive art techniques, and breathing meditation. I support older teens, and adults of all ages in creating healthy responses to current situations. I want to help you take the next steps into living your own life more fully.
