Client Feedback

Had a great first session with Stefanie. She is professional, articulate, and kind. I look forward to working with her and learning tools for success. Thank you Stefanie

​Therapy Client

I like this therapy because, though my gender and sexuality are a part of me, it’s not the focus. You see my life beyond my sexuality and it’s nice.

​Therapy Client

She's very professional and understood exactly what I needed.

Therapy Client

Stefanie has been such a gift to my growth. She is a great listener, compassionate and empathetic, and challenges counterproductive thoughts when necessary. Her therapeutic approach was perfect for me. You are lucky to have her (Agency.)
