How we can help
Stephanie draws from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches and tailors them to the individual client. I take a holistic, client-centered, approach that combines evidence-based therapies to support well-being, emotional processing, and encourage meaningful change.
Therapeutic Approaches
❋ Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) ❋An talk therapy that teaches you how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours connect. By identifying and challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, you can break negative cycles and actively manage anxiety, depression, and stress.
❋ Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ❋An action-oriented, mindfulness-based psychotherapy. Rather than trying to eliminate or suppress difficult emotions, it teaches you to accept what is out of your control and commit to actions that improve your life an align with your core values.
❋ Dialectic Behavioural Therapy (DBT) ❋A type of therapy that helps people manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and reduce harmful behaviours by balancing acceptance and change. It teaches practical skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication.
