Healing Relationships,
One Step at a Time

  • Online therapy in CA, NV and VT

  • In-person therapy in Los Alamitos, CA

  • Relationship counseling specializing in inner child healing, co-parenting, family repair, and support for your child with "big feelings"

Does it feel like the smallest things turn into huge meltdowns in your home?

Do you feel like co-parenting is a constant battle and your child is caught in the middle?

Are you doing all you can to stay afloat but somehow old wounds keep on coming back?

Let me help you get there.

HI, I’M STEPHANIE. And I'm here to help bring the calm back into your home.

Together, we’ll help you slow the moment down and reconnect—so it doesn’t spiral the way it usually does. Your child will start to open up about what’s going on inside-without needing to act out. You’ll understand what gets triggered in you, so you can respond with more confidence instead of reacting on impulse. And bit by bit, your relationship with your child will become more secure…more stable and in time, your home will feel more calm, more connected and at ease.

Beyond family work, I also support individuals who feel stuck—even when they’re doing everything “right.”
If you’ve read the books, tried the tools, and still find yourself in the same patterns, you’re not alone.
Through inner child healing, we’ll gently explore what’s underneath your current struggles, including patterns in your relationships and the places where you feel stuck.
We’ll make space for the deeper work—the parts of you that haven’t been fully seen or heard.
So you can finally understand what’s been holding you back… and start giving yourself what you’ve needed all along.

The Initial
Assessment

In our first full 50-minute session, we’ll dive deeper into your story. We’ll explore the patterns that are keeping you stuck and begin co-creating a roadmap for your healing—whether that’s focusing on inner child work, parenting strategies, or relationship repair.

“Love is a constant process of tuning in, connecting, missing and misreading cues, disconnecting, repairing, and finding deeper connection. It is a dance of meeting and parting and finding each other again.”
