Stephanie Klewin
LPC, Clinician
Since early childhood, I have always cherished the power of social interaction. To serve as a counselor is simply my life’s purpose, rather than my line of professional work. I recently graduated with my degree in clinical counseling and have since continued my education in Counselor Education and Supervision. I have experience working in a variety of settings including community mental health agencies, outpatient behavioral health treatment centers, domestic violence shelters, and therapeutic day school programs.
I believe it is only natural for us to face hardship throughout life’s journey, and that additional, unbiased support can contribute towards growing into the best version of yourself. I maintain the belief that you are the expert to your own life, and rather than taking leadership of your journey, I sustain that it is my professional duty, and personal desire, to offer you skills, tools, and resources through my training, for you to utilize in daily life. As a counselor, I value helping you explore meaning in your life experiences, and provide a space to fully process them in. I feel it is a privilege to develop and maintain a therapeutic relationship with you. As I prioritize our therapeutic relationship, I recognize that you are unique, and I acknowledge this through my eclectic approach to counseling. To do so, I use several theoretical approaches to counseling, including humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral techniques, strengths-based therapy and solution-focused therapy.
