Stefanie SummersLCSW
Nice to meet you
I help clients navigate relationship challenges, divorce, coparenting struggles, adoption-related issues, work/school stress, boundary setting, the impact of trauma, including childhood trauma, neurodevelopmental trauma, military combat, and first responder experiences. My approach is warm, direct, and down to earth and I offer honest yet supportive feedback. I incorporate traditional psychotherapy models and attachment-based therapies with holistic methods like mind-body techniques, Sound Healing, and Reiki. I also use creative learning, conversational role-play, interactive family dynamics work.
