Hi, I’m Stephanie! I am a counselor and the founder of Rise Counseling Treasure Coast. Rise is more than just a counseling practice; it’s how I live out my life passion. I truly do love helping others rise above life’s challenges, and I believe it is possible for you to live a fulfilling life!

I am not just a professional counselor…I’m a human being! And I believe that each person is unique and important. My promise to anyone I counsel is that I will treat you like a person, not just a client. 

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), a Master’s-Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP), and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) with over 20 years of experience in individual, relationship, family, and group counseling. I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling with an emphasis on Clinical Mental Health from Messiah College in Pennsylvania, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Liberty University in Virginia. My professional affiliations include the American Counseling Association, the Florida Certification Board, the International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium, and the Counseling Academic and Professional Honor Society.
