Stephanie is a licensed therapist based in South Florida, where she has lived since 2001. Born in New Jersey to Cuban parents and raised partly in Puerto Rico, her multicultural background shapes her inclusive and empathetic approach to therapy.

Much of her work has focused on substance use, addiction, and trauma, helping clients explore the intersections of emotional pain, boundaries, and relationship dynamics in a supportive, non-judgmental space.



Stephanie’s therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, insight, and emotional resilience. She integrates EMDR therapy—her specialty as an EMDRIA-approved clinician—with Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. Her goal is to help clients reframe unhelpful patterns, process past experiences, and build healthier coping strategies. Whether you're facing addiction, trauma, or personal challenges, Stephanie is dedicated to helping you heal and grow toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
