Getting to know Stephanie Mitchell

Hi there, I'm Stephanie! Are you and your partner struggling to feel connected? you are not alone. I work with couples to help repair and strengthen bonds so that no matter time or place they can be accessible, tune in to emotional needs, respond in caring supportive ways, and be engaged with one another. My focus I work with couples who feel disconnected, stuck in conflict, or are struggling to recover from infidelity and other relationship injuries. Using Emotionally Focused Couple's Therapy (EFCT), I help couples rebuild trust, strengthen their emotional connection, communicate more effectively, and create healthier ways of navigating conflict together. My approach I use Emotion Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) to help couples step out of the negative cycle that has them feeling stuck. My approach is curious, non-blaming, collaborative and warm with some humor (when appropriate). My communication style I prioritize active listening and thoughtful questions to better understand the couples I work with. Understanding protective behaviors helps create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where both partners feel heard. My style can be soft, quiet, loud, and, well… human. I’ll meet you where you are. My journey to mental healthcare My journey started as a receptionist at an outpatient mental health clinic. I was drawn to the clients who came through the clinic and loved seeing the changes they made over time. I remember thinking, “I want to be a part of that.” During my internship, I discovered that I LOVED working with couples. I love being able to help the system! My goals for you I will spend the first session getting to understand what brought you into session and will collaborate with you to help you identify your priorities for treatment. Once we establish your goals, I'll use the EFCT model to help you slow down your negative cycle, create understanding of your emotional experience, and then... get deep.
