Introduction

Hi, I’m Steph, and I’m passionate about walking alongside individuals on their journey to healing and growth. I became an addiction counselor after witnessing the power of recovery in my own family and community, and I bring both professional training and personal understanding to my work. I specialize in working with individuals facing substance use challenges, trauma, and co-occurring issues, as well as clients involved with drug courts or DUI programs. I’m trained in evidence-based approaches like Motivational Interviewing, cognitive-behavioral tools, and Prime For Life, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. My goal is to help you tap into your own strengths, build healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change in your life. Together, we’ll work toward a life that feels more aligned, hopeful, and fulfilling.
