Getting to know Stephanie Kovis

Many people experience anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem, and often feel isolated. It's important to understand that healing begins when we feel truly seen, heard, and supported. I will walk alongside you on your journey toward personal growth and emotional well-being. In our time together, my priority is to create a warm and compassionate presence, offering you a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I utilize evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and mindfulness. I also incorporate shame-sensitive practice and culturally sensitive, trauma-focused care into my treatment approach to ensure that you receive the necessary support.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I begin with a free 15-minute consultation to understand your goals. If my services align with your needs, we will discuss and explore the challenges you are facing. Together, we will establish treatment goals and determine the frequency of sessions. My ultimate goal is to meet you exactly where you are on your journey. Together, I can help you build resiliency, discover your strengths, and develop the tools you need to navigate the world with confidence and clarity. I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions to ensure that you feel supported in a way that best suits your needs.
