I am a child and family counselor licensed in Illinois with over 15 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, struggles with peer relationships, and parenting challenges. I have worked with children, adolescents and adults to help enhance their personal lives and to strengthen their relationships with peers, siblings, and children. I take a holistic approach and always strive to create an emotionally supportive environment for each client.

Honestly the most amazing counselor I have ever had. And most understanding and validating one too. It’s so nice to have an outside perspective. Would recommend to everyone I know.

Stephanie is really great. She takes the time to listen and is empathetic and non judgemental. She responded any time of the day that I would message and always found a way to help me cope with what I was going through!

Stefanie has been a great counselor. She takes the time to understand where I’m coming from in a completely nonjudgmental way. She is very supportive and insightful.

I can tell Stefanie is a kind-hearted person, and I’ve only been with her for 2 weeks. She doesn’t pressure me to respond or journal when my busy schedule is in the way. Her counseling is judgement free and she respects and cares for my well being, my successes, and my short-comings. She has also never pressured me into anything that makes me uncomfortable (video calls or live meetings.) She also responds in the morning, afternoons, and late at night (when she can) which is perfect to me because I work 2pm-10pm. I would recommend her to anyone.
