Meet Stephanie

Associate Professional Clinical Counselor at The San Diego Office

I believe that therapy is for anyone and everyone, and that seeking help is a sign of strength and resilience. I partner with each individual, meeting them where they are to create a collaborative plan forward. My background in studying child development makes me passionate about working with kids, teens, and adults as they navigate key periods of growth and change. I leverage my background in improv, outdoor education, and animated film to find creative ways to connect! I help clients from all walks of life incorporate their unique background, culture, identity, and values into the therapeutic process. I bring personal and professional experience integrating mindfulness-based approaches and other practical skills that can help overwhelming situations feel more manageable and growth feel more actionable.  I have been trained to support individuals navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, social development, emotional regulation, trauma, and complex family relationships.
