“Wounds created in relationship can be healed in relationship”

Hi, I’m Steph! Welcome to the site!

When I started WilderHeart, I drew inspiration from the lioness. In the wild, lionesses are known for their compassion, living in prides and relying on each other’s strengths. They are also fierce hunters and protectors, moving through the bush with quiet confidence—not because they know what lies ahead, but because they trust their ability to face whatever comes their way. I believe that same strength lies in all of us, and that relationships play an important part in building and accessing that strength. Together, we’ll explore the challenges and experiences that can make it difficult to access at times. I believe that how we connect with ourselves deeply influences how we engage with the world. If you’re seeking to strengthen that connection and build the confidence to reach your goals and form deeper, more authentic relationships—whether with people, passions, or careers—we could be a great fit.

I use an integrative approach in therapy. My original training was in psychodynamic theories and my work is grounded in multicultural awareness. I prioritize exploring and honoring intersectionality throughout the therapeutic process
