Stephanie Mowery

LCSW, Clinical Director

Welcoming New Clients by Direct Referral Only
(Ages 13+)

Hi! I’m Stephanie and I’ve been in practice as a psychotherapist for over 10 years. I believe the relational connection offered in therapy is a big part of the healing process, as we all have a core need to feel truly seen and heard. I’m committed to providing an attentive, consistent, and intentional approach that enables emotional vulnerability for my clients. I believe the only way to heal our pain is to face it, and it’s easier to do this in an empathetic space.

My main priority for therapy is to meet my clients’ individualized needs, whatever those are, because the journey of healing and change looks different for everyone. My therapeutic style is a process-based approach that draws upon a variety of methods including ACT, CBT, DBT, mindfulness therapy, relational therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. Because change isn’t a linear process, I consistently assess and tweak my approach with clients depending on what works for them. I am committed to collaborating with you through the growing pains of change.

I specialize in addressing a variety of concerns including disordered eating, body dysmorphia, codependency/relationship issues, and anxiety and obsessive disorders. I also have experience with substance abuse and co-occurring anxiety/mood disorders. I work with individual adults and teens, as well as providing coaching and consulting for parents/couples who want support in navigating their child’s mental health struggles.

Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family, dogs, and chickens. On any given weekend you’ll likely find me knee-deep in an outdoor building project, gardening, or biking on the Monon.
