Stephanie has been so helpful in my therapy journey. She listens intently and asks thought provoking questions that allow me the ability to reflect deeper on the issues I'm having. Stephanie helps me look at problems through a different lens which has been instrumental in not only identifying the problem, but digging deeper and finding why that particular problem is troubling me. She is very respectful, patient, and kind. I find it very easy to open up and divulge my troubles. I'm excited to continue working on myself with the help of Stephanie.

More about Stephanie

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hi! My name is Stephanie and I am a licensed professional counselor who loves to help individuals experience and maintain emotional health.

I have 13 years of counseling experience in private practice settings.

Life is hard and navigating through emotional pain and stress can be more than most people can handle alone. Counseling offers those who are hurting the opportunity to have another person walk with them in their pain, offering support and guidance. My counseling style is non-judgmental and very relational, offering hope and grace to all in the midst of their brokenness and struggles. I work with a wide variety of clients and issues with a special focus in the areas of self-esteem/self-worth and grief/loss due to death, divorce, life transitions, or unfulfilled life expectations.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Stephanie has been a fantastic match for me. I work long days, so her later availability helps. She is receptive without being judgmental, constructive, and takes great care in listening to my input. I have never felt that she is anything less than completely professional in our interactions. I consider myself lucky to have sessions with her.

Stephanie is so respectful and understanding. From the very start, I felt that I could open up to her and speak freely. She often asks me questions and sometimes these challenge me which is what I really need in certain situations. She listens and has a way of reflecting back on my words and thoughts to assist me in finding answers myself and how to move forward. She’s amazing!

Stephanie is very patient and also knowledgeable. She is able to listen and understand the bigger picture or the causes of the problems. She is gentle with no judgement and quickly assesses the the situation so there is more awareness and solutions rather than blame. She was extremely helpful when I was feeling down and I believe she will be excellent in assisting others in the future. Thank you!

I like Stephanie Ehmke. She seems to understand my hectic and stressful life. She puts things in perspective and is not harsh with her recommendations. I have only had 2 sessions but I feel like I am purging years of built up pain, grief, sorrow and stress. Heck, the fact that someone actually listens to me without judgment is a huge comfort. I want to see where this could go. I promised myself that I would commit to a few months and see how I felt. Thanks! Sincerely, Maria Rivers
