Healing Through Strength, Growth, and Resilience.
Supporting Veterans Through Trauma and Transition
Stephanie is passionate about helping veterans and active-duty service members navigate the unique challenges that come with military service. Whether you’re struggling with PTSD, Military Sexual Trauma (MST), combat trauma, substance use, or the transition to civilian life, she provides a safe, structured space to process your experiences and regain control. Stephanie has worked extensively with veterans in both outpatient and inpatient settings, facilitating trauma recovery, stress management, and emotional regulation. She uses Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), mindfulness techniques, guided imagery, and other evidence-based approaches to help veterans manage anxiety, process difficult memories, and build resilience.
Helping Adults, Teens, and Families Navigate Life’s Challenges
Beyond her work with veterans, Stephanie supports adults, teens, and families dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and major life transitions. With a background in school counseling, she understands the pressures young people face, including social anxiety, peer challenges, and academic stress. She specializes in play therapy and sand tray therapy to help children express emotions in a safe and supportive environment. Stephanie also helps adults struggling with career stress, self-esteem, and emotional wellness, using a solution-focused, strengths-based approach to promote healing and personal growth.
