Hello!
Welcome to my page, I'm excited to share a little about myself. My name is Stephanie Blanco, and I'm a Bilingual Spanish speaking Licensed Clinical Therapist in California, Florida and New York, with 15 years of professional work experience serving a wide diverse range of communities. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, LGBT related issues, & relationship issues. I also have extensive experience treating depression & anxiety affecting the average person. Most of my professional career I have worked in the medical hospital setting. I have worked almost every unit in the hospital, including the Emergency Department, Trauma Service, ICU, Psych Unit, Mother-Baby/Obstetrics, Oncology, and COVID-19 unit during the Pandemic. I also have Managed the entire Social Work Department, trained and supervised Social Workers. I also have taught Health Education courses at a local community college during the evening. My work experience is extensive, and I feel confident I can help you. I hold 2 Master's degrees from USC and hold 3 active state licenses from California, Florida, and New York. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
