Meet Stephanie

Holistic Therapist + Somatic Coach

Something goes here… but what?

Licensed counselor using Internal Family Systems, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing

Going deeper

Over the past two decades as a therapist, my approach has evolved beyond traditional counseling into a deeply integrative practice. I now blend evidence-based techniques with holistic modalities that facilitate healing at profound levels most conventional approaches can't reach.

At the core of my work lies somatic therapy—the understanding that our experiences and emotions are stored within our physical bodies, not just our minds. I guide clients through gentle, embodied explorations that typically begin with conversation before transitioning into deeper felt experiences. This might involve closing your eyes and turning attention inward as I help you navigate what emerges in your body—often revealing insights that cognitive understanding alone could never access.

Complementing this inner exploration, I incorporate supportive practices including meditation, breathwork, and self-directed somatic techniques. These tools help regulate your nervous system and create the necessary foundation for healing to unfold naturally, in ways that are both grounded and sustainable over time.
