Stephanie Garvin, LPC

Stephanie Garvin is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania with both passion and years of experience providing BIPOC therapy to teens and adults. She helps clients navigate unique life transitions, questions of identity, and the challenges that come with each new phase of life. Stephanie has a personal understanding of how difficult it can be to ask for help and of the stigma that still surrounds mental health and therapy. She strives to bridge the gap in access to quality care, and she constantly pursues knowledge that allows her to provide culturally affirming therapy.

If you’ve been searching for a trauma therapist near me to help reduce the impact of intergenerational trauma, childhood trauma, or recent traumatic events you have witnessed or been a part of, Stephanie will be a good fit for your trauma therapy needs.

With Stephanie, you’ll have a safe therapeutic space to process your emotions and spiraling thoughts, and to find new perspectives on your path to healing. She is here for clients who are feeling “stuck,” struggling with grief, or having trouble setting healthy boundaries at work and in their personal life. Not only is Stephanie’s approach rooted in trauma informed therapy, she also has expertise in evidence-based trauma therapy approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Beyond trauma work, Stephanie supports clients managing anxiety, depression, everyday stress, and life and career transitions. She works with women navigating the issues that shape their lives and also offers therapy for men.

Stephanie completed her undergraduate work at Howard University in Washington, DC and her graduate work at Seton Hall University in New Jersey. Her ultimate goal is to help others find value in themselves and learn to live their lives unapologetically.
