Connection, Curiosity, Compassion

Our Approach to Therapy

Life can feel heavy—whether you're adjusting to motherhood, healing from grief and loss or navigating the emotional weight of daily life. You don’t have to carry it alone. At Resilient Roots Counseling, we provide therapy that is grounded in compassion, connection, and curiosity—helping you move from feeling stuck to feeling supported. These values guide every aspect of our work, so we can provide a space where you are seen, heard, and supported in uncovering your true strength and resilience.​​​

We believe that healing happens in relationships, that self-judgment can be replaced with self-compassion, and that every challenge is an opportunity for growth.

Despite being more connected than ever, many of us feel profoundly alone. Society often encourages independence at the cost of community, leaving us isolated in our struggles. Healing begins with connection—first with yourself, then with others. Therapy helps you rediscover a sense of belonging and build relationships that support your growth.

Connection

Romantic Couple

We are conditioned to judge our emotions, push through pain, or ignore what feels uncomfortable. But what if we approached our thoughts and feelings with curiosity instead of fear? By leaning into what arises with openness, therapy creates space for deeper understanding and meaningful change.

Curiosity

Hands on chest

When we become more aware of our inner world, we often realize how harshly we treat ourselves. Therapy helps you turn inward with kindness—releasing guilt, self-criticism, and unrealistic expectations—so you can begin showing up for yourself with the same care you offer to others.

Testimonials

Stephanie was and still is so wonderful in helping me turn my life around. I was on the verge of becoming a total shut-in, and she's helped me seize opportunities to branch out and meet new people. She also helped me identify my food aversion as ARFID when no one else had even considered the diagnosis and my relationship with food has changed dramatically since identifying my disorder. I've worked with many different therapists in the past and Stephanie is one of the kindest and most understanding ones I've ever met. She is encouraging without being pushy and validates my fears while helping me conquer them.

~ Therapy Client

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming and can be extremely difficult, but from the very first session with Stephanie, I knew I was in the right place. She is incredibly down to earth and authentic creating a space where I felt truly heard and understood. Her warmth and genuine approach made it feel natural and easy to open up, even about the hardest topics and some deeply rooted trauma. She has a rare ability to balance professionalism with deep compassion, making you feel like you are talking to an old friend as she guides you through challenges in a way that feels both empowering and supportive. If you are hesitant about starting therapy, Stephanie will make you feel safe, seen, and comfortable every step of the way.

~ Trauma Therapy Client

Stephanie is an absolute gem. She’s warm, kind, and creates a space where you feel safe and supported. Her expertise in EMDR has helped me process trauma in a way that feels manageable rather than overwhelming. I’m learning to be kinder to myself because of her. She is intuitive and receptive to my feedback, adjusting her approach to what works best for me. If you’re looking for a therapist who combines compassion with real, effective techniques, she’s the one!
