Written on Jan 30, 2023 after therapy with Stephanie for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and coping with life changes

I have done this review a few times now so I will try to keep it succinct. I have seen huge growth on my goals that I had set for therapy at the start and many others that I decided on as time passed. I felt the progress 3 months in, 6 and 9.

And in every session I feel I have someone on my corner. Someone more than willing to adjust to my needs, capable in every way that is needed to guide me all the way. If I had to resume it I would say: I feel guided and supported at all times. Stephanie also believes that therapy is not intended to be constant, there are times you might need it and it's there for you but the idea is for you to be able to manage your emotions on your own. it's really good to feel that the person who is helping you want you to be independent but at the same time is fully present and commited to give it all to make sure you get there.

Stephanie is an excellent therapist. She’s an incredible listener, asks very thoughtful questions and gives really good insight into topics and stories that I’ve shared.

Stephanie is amazing. She was the first therapist I’d ever spoken to, and she immediately put me at ease with the process. A year later, I can see growth. And I know I’ve got her as part of my support team, readily available.

Written on Jan 14, 2021 after therapy with Stephanie for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, grief, self esteem, and coping with life changes

This was my first experience with online counselling and I only have great things to say. I think my experience with online counselling has been so amazing due to having a great Counsellor. Stephanie is able to understand me so well and has such a caring way to help me grow and thrive with my life goals. My Counsellor has become similar to a close friendship. I can share both my good days and bad days without any judgments. My Counsellor has been very supportive through my healing process and I am very thankful to have been connected through such an experienced Counsellor. Stephanie without a doubt has made the online counselling experience enjoyable. I recommend all my friends and family to better help and reference my Counsellor.

Stephanie has been compassionate, understanding, and firm with her intentions and her vision for my well being. I couldn’t have asked for a better counselor. Not matter what I write or review, it will never equate to the appreciation I have for her. She has helped me emerge from a very dark place into a new place of better perspective, and kindness for myself especially.

If you have the pleasure of working with Stephanie I guarantee you will be well taken care of. I will always cherish what I have overcome with her help.

I have been so thankful for the journey with Stephanie. Stephanie has been fantastic and would highly recommend engaging with her especially if you are someone who is new to counseling and/or slightly skeptical of counselling! My perception has completely altered and I am so thankful for the positive thought provoking sessions. At times it was challenging but in a great way to stimulate growth and I have always felt safe and trusting.
Stephanie has been patient, allowing me to grow and change my mindset in regards to allowing counselling to be a positive experience with a focus on growth and self care. Thank you so much Stephanie!!

Written on Dec 07, 2020 after therapy with Stephanie for 10 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety

Stephanie has been an amazing counselor for me. She is very patient, kind, and honest. It did not take long for me to build trust with her and feel fully comfortable opening up during our sessions. What I value most about having Stephanie as a counselor is that she has introduced me to several new tools, ways of thinking, and methods for creating new habits to help me be successful outside of therapy.

Written on Dec 02, 2020 after therapy with Stephanie for 7 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and self esteem

Stephanie is an amazing therapist ! She leads with compassion and she's easy to talk to. She showed me that I can open up instead of shutting down and pushing other people away. I learned (and still learning) a lot of helpful tools to manage my anxiety. She calls me out and holds me accountable when I need to be and validates my experiences/emotions. I am extremely grateful to have her as my therapist !

Written on Nov 30, 2020 after therapy with Stephanie for 7 months

Stephanie was my therapist for over a year and she provided a safe space for me to talk through problems and emotions, validating me whilst also challenging me in order to make progress.

She gave me the freedom and responsibility to come up with solutions whilst guiding and supporting me to make positive changes in my life.

Joining the platform and being connected with Stephanie has significantly improved my wellbeing and was worthwhile investment in myself and my future. I hope our paths will cross again in the future!

Written on Oct 13, 2020 after therapy with Stephanie for 1 year and 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, eating disorders, and self esteem

I have been working with Stephanie for about 2 months now and it has been an amazing experience. I had never gone through any kind of counseling before so did not really know what to expect. Stephanie made me feel comfortable from the very beginning, she is very kind and easy to talk to and really takes the time to get to know you and the reasons behind why you chose to start therapy.
Stephanie allowed me to lead the conversation if I wished but always added her thoughts and gave me a different perspective on how I was thinking. I struggled with understanding my thought patterns and she was able to take the information I had given her from my past and life, in order to give me a new outlook on how I process things and view the world.
I most definitely would recommend Stephanie as a counsellor to anyone, she has made a positive impact on my life and well being.
Thank you Stephanie, I look forward to getting to work together again :)

Written on Jun 02, 2020 after therapy with Stephanie for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, and self esteem

I am very thankful to BetterHelp for having connected me with Stephanie! She not only listens to me without judgment and lets me just express everything my anxious and sometimes depressed brain needs to express, she also challenges and motivates me to keep working on moving forward. I've had therapists in the past who I felt were mostly just telling me what I wanted to hear, allowing me to stay within a certain comfort zone. But I feel Stephanie's honesty - always paired with lots of compassion and patience - has highlighted some things about my mental health that I had never considered before. With therapy it's inevitable that painful things may come up, but working with Stephanie makes me feel ready and empowered to face them.

Stephanie demonstrates a remarkable ability to keep a person grounded while going through their flightiest bouts of overthinking. She clearly has experience in addressing anxiety in all the forms it takes, and offering concrete solutions to abstract issues of worry, self-esteem, and negative habits to be corrected. During my time with Stephanie she has been an honest and firm counselor while maintaining a compassionate and nonjudgmental attitude. I have always felt safe opening up to her, and she very quickly deduced helpful exercises personalized to my own struggle. She makes sure you have clear goals and that your time together is productive, a therapist who makes sure you know where you are going while also acknowledging the place you are already in.

I've found the time talking with Stephanie really very constructive. A great listener, she knows when to challenge and also when to leave space for me to 'vent'. We were confronting an issue that I found extremely hard to open up about; I'm not quite sure how but she gently encouraged me so I built confidence in addressing the issue openly and exploring aspects of life that have in the past been very hard to evaluate in an objective way. She has made a marked and positive difference to my life in the period we have worked together. Thank you!

Stephanie managed to change the perspective I look into very quickly. She introduced how to change a circle of thoughts I have been stuck in after my loss. She improves my self confidence and self understanding. I find it amazing that it feels like she is there for me even though she is on the other side of the ocean. She also has a strong intuition and somehow is always there if things goes not well. I really started an amazing journey to become a more healthy, happier me with her guidance. I strongly recommend Stephanie to every woman who wants to find strength again.
