In addition, Stefanie helps clients address issues that include, but are not limited to, self-injury, identity, depression, grief /loss, life transitions, and communication, as well as supporting parents of emotionally disturbed children.

Utilizing screening tools and a complete history, she can help determine if ADHD or other Executive Functioning impairment is present and, if so, offer interventions to help cope. In addition, Stefanie is able to document the assessment findings for schools, doctors, or others as requested with clients' completed release of information. Stefanie discovered her love for helping others while completing an undergraduate internship at Preferred Family Healthcare in St. Charles, MO. There she worked with youth struggling with addiction. Stefanie then went on to work at Youth in Need serving in various roles, including her Counseling internship, while completing her Master’s degree. While at Youth in Need, Stefanie facilitated groups for homeless youth, conducted individual and family sessions, and worked with first-time offenders in the St. Charles Juvenile Court system. Stefanie then took a full-time clinical position with Crider Health Center as a Care Coordinator. There she worked with families who had a child or youth who had serious emotional disturbances, thus gaining experience with an array of mental health disorders. In addition, she worked with numerous schools throughout St. Charles County in order to help her clients be successful in the school setting. While at Crider Health Center, she also taught an anger management class, F.A.C.E., to adolescent offenders through the St. Charles Juvenile Court. Stefanie next took her therapy skills into the school setting working as a Professional School Counselor at Lutheran Family and Children’s Services and placed in Hazelwood’s Southeast Middle School. She worked with individual students, whose issues range from behavior problems at school, bullying (both victim and perpetrator), to grief. Stefanie is devoted to assisting clients to use their own strengths to overcome life’s challenges. She is dedicated to helping youth realize their own potential. As a parent of children with emotional disturbances, Stefanie better understands the unique challenges placed on parents whose children have serious mental health conditions. Stefanie loves all things Disney, binge watching shows with her husband, and taking her kids to fun sites all over St. Louis. She also loves reading and enjoys checking out the books on the Truman Nominees list and Mark Twain Nominees list. |
