Welcome

There are times we all need support when faced with a difficult challenge, have the need to resolve a problem or navigate the complexities of life. There are times when we need help to make sense and understand our emotional world. Whatever It is that brings you to therapy, I can help you, through a collaborative process to achieve your goals.


I utilize an eclectic approach in addition to incorporating mindfulness practices in order to create the space needed to embark on the journey to a more meaningful, purposeful life.


There comes a time when we desire to carve out our own, authentic path in life.  If you are ready to embark on this journey, you've come to the right place.

Hi, I am Stella

It is my belief and experience that you will get more out of your life if you are willing to change. Change is spurred by a feeling that something just isn't quite right, that something could be better, that there's an issue you want to resolve. Therapy is an important step in discovering the world around you and finding your place in it.
