Hi! I’m Stephanie (she/they)

I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California. I believe softness is strength, and curiosity fuels gentleness towards ourselves and our past. I’m passionate about creating a space together where you feel seen, heard, and embraced. I work from a relational lens with my clients, which means I trust that the power of our relationship is something that helps you heal! It also means that I get to live within my value of authenticity, and be totally myself in the space with you. My hope is that this gives you permission to reclaim authenticity as well.

I specialize in working with young adults, queer folks, and those navigating family of origin challenges, religious trauma, and neurodivergence. I know that stepping into therapy can feel daunting, but together we can unravel the knots of the past and reconnect you to a sense of wholeness and empowerment. My goal is for you to walk away from our time together with a clearer understanding of yourself, a deeper self-compassion, and a toolkit of practical strategies to navigate life’s complexities.

Less formally, I am a wife, friend, cat mom, serial hobbyist, and lover of trinkets. I like to spend my free time crafting, watching reality TV, or playing cozy video games. Whether it’s finding joy in the smallest moments or diving deep into the messiness of life, I believe there’s beauty in it all.

If any of this feels like a deep breath of relief for you, book a consult call & let’s talk!

From my heart to yours,

Steph
