Getting to know C. Steffanie Williams

Hello, I'm Dr. C. Steffanie Born and raised in California, my Christian faith shapes my life and work. My graduate training and Christian counseling background integrate academics with Biblical truth. As an LMFT, I offer both Christian and secular therapy, honoring each client's values. My therapeutic approach is rooted in a relational/psychodynamic framework, integrating Biblical principles and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I strive to create a safe, compassionate space where clients can explore their inner world with honesty and hope, drawing strength from faith. as desired. I am deeply present during sessions. To support my level of presence, I exclusively use Grow Therapy's confidential, HIPAA-compliant platform and its associated AI summarization/transcription program. Clients who choose me need to consent to using the platform and AI Transcriber. I provide weekly sessions to facilitate meaningful therapeutic growth. My practice is fully virtual/telehealth and adheres to best-practice standards to ensure timely, consistent, and high-quality care. I maintain specific policies that define the scope of services provided. I do not write letters or complete documentation (including but not limited to ESA, FMLA, IHSS, SSI, housing, or stress-leave documentation). Additionally, due to safety considerations and the limitations of a virtual-only setting, my practice does not provide treatment for the following symptoms or conditions: psychotic disorders, primary eating disorders, primary substance use/abuse, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), dementia, pain management, active suicidal or homicidal ideation, or frequent mental-health emergencies. These policies are in place to ensure clients receive care that is clinically appropriate and aligned with the level of support they require. If your needs fall outside this scope, I will provide a referral to a provider or setting equipped to meet those needs.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
