Stephanie is great! She made me feel safe from day one and totally got the trauma stuff I was dealing with. She listens in a way that feels empowering, like my needs and preferences actually matter. She’s LGBTQ-informed and really helped me through some heavy grief and depression. I highly recommend her!
Stephanie has made my experience as a keystone patient impactful and beneficial. She is prompt, professional and flexible. Would recommend her to anyone !

More about Stephanie Carneiro, LMFT

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with a profound commitment to helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety, cultural diversity, depression, grief, identity, intimacy, LGBTQIA+ support, relationships (sex-positive/kink-aware), transitions and trauma. With extensive experience in these areas, I specialize in providing compassionate, culturally sensitive therapy that empowers clients to explore and resolve their deepest concerns. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, my approach to therapy is deeply rooted in creating a safe, affirming, and judgment-free space where clients can explore their experiences and aspirations. I believe that every individual possesses inherent strengths and resilience, and my role is to guide and support you in harnessing these qualities to navigate your unique challenges and goals. My practice is firmly grounded in strength-based, trauma-informed, and client-centered methodologies. I utilize a strength-based approach to help clients identify and build upon their existing resources and capabilities, fostering a sense of empowerment and self-efficacy. By acknowledging and celebrating your strengths, we work together to cultivate a path forward that aligns with your personal values and aspirations. Incorporating trauma-informed principles, I am committed to understanding and respecting the impact of past experiences on your current well-being. This approach emphasizes safety, trustworthiness, and collaboration, ensuring that therapy is a respectful and supportive process. By acknowledging the ways trauma may influence your life, we work collaboratively to create a therapeutic environment where healing and growth can occur. Adopting a client-centered perspective, I prioritize your unique needs, preferences, and goals throughout our work together. Therapy is tailored to your individual experiences and desires, ensuring that our time together is relevant and impactful for you

Stephanie and I have been working together for almost 3 years now, starting in high school and continuing into college. She has made such a positive impact on my life, her kindness and understanding has always made me feel heard and supported. One of the things I've appreciated most is how flexible and accommodating she as been throughout our time together, whether is was adjusting to my busy school schedule or helping me through big life changes. She always creates a safe and comfortable space where I can be honest and open, and she consistently provides insight that helps me grow and navigate challenges. I am forever grateful to have met her, and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated therapist.
My visit with Stephanie was wonderful. She really heard me and offered clarity and guidance on the things I shared during our session. I felt supported and encouraged, and I look forward to continuing this journey with her.
Best therapist Ive worked with. Her insight, knowledge and ability to be real but compassionate has allowed me to grow in really cool ways.
As soon as I met Stephanie I knew immediately that she was going to be the perfect therapist for me. Her persona was so giving and kind and I knew that she would be the perfect one to interact with me as I navigate my life challenges . After a year of working together I feel our relationship is solid comfortable and she really understands how to be a therapist. All subjects are comfortable to discuss in our sessions together.
Working with Stephanie has been truly life-changing. When I first began therapy, I was struggling with self-esteem issues that felt overwhelming and deeply ingrained. Through her guidance, I not only learned to see myself in a more compassionate and confident light, but I also began to truly believe in my worth. She has a rare ability to make you feel understood without judgment, creating a safe space where growth feels possible and sustainable. Her professionalism is matched by her genuine empathy and skill—she listens deeply, asks thoughtful questions, and provides tools that actually work in real life. I’ve always felt that she meets me exactly where I am while still challenging me to grow. She is highly gifted at working with people, reading between the lines, and helping you discover strengths you didn’t know you had. I’m walking away from our sessions feeling empowered, more resilient, and more in touch with the person I want to be.
I had a wonderful experience working with Stephanie! She was understanding, compassionate, and always made me feel validated during our sessions. Stephanie took the time to listen closely to my concerns and offered actionable feedback that genuinely helped me navigate some tough situations. I can’t recommend her enough!
Stephanie makes this therapy thing so easy. I was nervous and anxious about trying to figure out what to talk about. But Stephanie put me right at ease and before I know it the hour was up. I highly recommend her easy bedside manner, professional approach and her love of helping.
Stephanie is very intuitive and compassionate.
Working with Stephanie has honestly been a transformative experience. As a trauma-informed therapist she approaches every session with deep empathy, patience and insight. I always feel safe and truly heard and am grateful to have a therapist who is willing to meet me where I am while we walk down the road of healing together.
