Religious Trauma Therapy in California

Shed Shame. Rediscover Authenticity. Come Home to Yourself.

Hi, I’m Stephanie!

I help folks who are ready to reconnect to themselves and others through trauma-informed, affirming psychotherapy.

Currently offering in person therapy in Pasadena, CA & online therapy throughout the state of California.

Let's work together to help you reestablish your sense of self, reconnect with your intuition, and deepen your relationships.

  • I've been told my style as a therapist is warm and collaborative. I infuse my own human-ness into the space using humor, compassion, and insight. Learn more about me here!

  • I work with people going through lots of really hard stuff! My clients tend to come to me to work through issues of religious harm, identity work, and navigating neurodiverse experiences. Feel free to check out the services page to learn more!
