Get the care you deserve.
Clinical Psychotherapist Stephanie Gutierrez, MS LMHC
Thanks for stopping by!
Although you’ve made it to this point in your search for a therapist I’m sure you are still filled with questions. Maybe you’re wondering:
Is this counseling thing even going to work?
Does this person even know what she’s doing?
What if this is going to be too overwhelming?
So, to help you continue with this process I want to provide you with some information about myself and my approach to therapy.
My Approach
I like to describe my therapeutic style to be direct and engaging. In my eyes, we are walking on this journey of self-discovery together and this requires us to open and honest in the safe space we are creating. In this collaborative approach, you can expect straightforward responses along with active engagement in each session.
Education and Training
Now here's the section where I provide you with the clear-cut answers to show you I know my stuff!
I received my Bachelors from the University of Central Florida in Religious and Cultural Studies. I firmly believe to help a person heal you must understand than from all aspects psychologically, biologically and of course environmentally. Our culture and traditions shape our experiences and this becomes a vital part of how we view our world.
As a continuation of my education I gained my Masters of Science from Palm Beach Atlantic University in Mental Health Counseling. During my graduate studies, I completed a year-long internship working at Florida Hospital working with a variety of community clients as well as those within the Cardiac and Diabetics Institute. I also interned at Real Life Christian Church counseling a multitude of people from the community and academy onsite.
Along with my education training I am trained EMDR practitioner, Trauma Competency trained, Adoption Competency Trained and LGBTQ Competency trained.
Unique Qualities
As a First-Generation American, I understand the challenges that come with assimilating to a new culture. As a therapist that strives to be culturally aware I work with individuals and families from a variety of cultural backgrounds to partner with them and their communities for a holistic healing experience.
