About

Going to therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to holding things together on your own. I’m really glad you’re here.

You may be someone who’s held a lot together for a long time.

You function. You show up. You care deeply.

And underneath it, you may feel anxious, disconnected, exhausted, or stuck in patterns that don’t reflect who you know yourself to be.

Hey there, I’m Stephanie Henderson, LPC and you can call me Stephanie. I believe that in order to truly support someone, we have to meet them where they are. You are the expert on your life. My role is to walk alongside you with curiosity, care, and structure, helping you better understand how your past experiences and nervous system shape the way you show up today.

My work is trauma-informed and attachment-based, with a focus on building safety, awareness, and choice. I approach therapy collaboratively and without judgment, honoring your lived experience while offering tools that support meaningful and sustainable change.

You might feel at home here if…

  • You struggle with anxiety or relationship patterns that feel hard to shift

  • You’re carrying childhood or relational wounds that show up in adulthood

  • You’re a parent trying to break cycles while regulating yourself

  • You want therapy that honors your identity, lived experience, culture and values

I am committed to creating an affirming space for LGBTQIA+ individuals and Black and BIPOC clients and all others.

How I Work

I don’t believe healing happens through insight alone.

Our work focuses on understanding how your nervous system learned to survive—so you can build safety, choice, and connection in real time, not just intellectually.

I often say that mental health is wealth. Investing in yourself, your healing, and your growth can create ripple effects across every area of your life.

My Approach Includes

  • Nervous system regulation → learning how your body responds to stress and how to come back to safety

  • Attachment-based therapy → understanding relational patterns without shame

  • Inner child / mother wound work → healing the parts of you that learned to over-perform, people-please, or self-abandon
