My Approach to Helping
Hello, I am so glad you are here. My name is Stephanie, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor originally from Houston, TX. I graduated from Loyola University New Orleans in 2014, and I have practiced in various settings and with various populations since. I approach counseling as a collaborative process in which I work with you to mindfully navigate challenging situations in your life. I practice from a person-centered perspective which allows for you to lead me to the areas where you would like to heal and grow.
When struggling with life changes, processing past trauma, grief, life stressors, anxiety, depression, parenting issues, or relationship issues it can feel overwhelming and it may make it difficult to function in your everyday life. It is important to know that these are not things that you have to carry on your own and that as a mental health professional my job is to walk alongside you during these times as you journey towards a place that feels balanced for you.
I have worked in outpatient clinics, in-home therapy, schools, with the tribal governments in various cities throughout the United States. All these complex and rich experiences have added to my clinical knowledge and ability to build therapeutic relationships with many different types of people. I look forward to providing an accepting, non-judgmental, and safe space for you to heal and renew. Welcome!
