Stephanie
Has always been very patient with me. My feelings and concerns are often all over the place so I can go off on tangent that can be very confusing to some people, but Stephanie always is able to reel me in and have me focus on one thing at a time And supports me through messages between sessions

I was very happy to work through my emerging family difficulties with Stephanie. She was super respectful of my choices and provided me with great advice about how to approach my relationships with family members who were not respectful of those choices. She really helped me keep perspective when I needed it most.

Stephanie Smith is the best therapist I have ever had. Out of the 7 therapists I’ve seen, she is by far the easiest to talk to, the most understanding, and the most helpful, especially when I need it the most. She always responds in a timely manner, she holds me accountable when it’s necessary, and she helps me be my best self. I would recommend her to anybody and everybody that needs a good, reliable therapist. In fact, I have recommended her to a couple of my friends. If you’re looking for the best therapist, whether on this platform or beyond, you’ve found her.

During my initial session with Stephanie, I was blown away by how quickly she "got me" She knew exactly where I was coming from and mirrored my own thoughts before I shared them aloud. She gave me actionable items to work on and I already feel as thought I'm on the path to achieving my goals!
