Introduction

I’m Stephanie Brown, a therapist who takes a warm, collaborative approach to helping clients navigate life’s challenges. I began my career driven by a deep curiosity about how our past shapes our present, and a desire to create a safe, inclusive space where people feel heard, valued, and understood. My work is rooted in a psychodynamic framework, exploring how early life experiences influence current patterns, while integrating practical tools to manage symptoms and build resilience. I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and relationship challenges, as well as those facing major life transitions or workplace stress. I focus on both short-term symptom relief and long-term personal growth, helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping skills, and foster meaningful change. Together, we identify goals, address the most pressing concerns first, and celebrate progress—big or small—along the way. My mission is to ensure that therapy feels like a partnership, where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to create the life you want.
