Stephanie Turner
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC)
I help young adults who feel overwhelmed and unable to live life fully due to anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Conveniently located near NCSU.
My specialty is the treatment of anxiety disorders, adjustment disorder, and interpersonal/relational issues in quarter-life adults (ages 18 - 35). Specifically, I treat generalized anxiety, social anxiety, complex/relational trauma, and anxiety caused by circumstances such as acute or chronic illness, injury, life transition, loss, relationship difficulties, and social isolation. I help people understand the ways that anxiety limits their lives. Since chronic anxiety often leads to depressive symptoms, I treat that as well. In a supportive therapeutic setting, I help people safely process emotions and experiences and learn practical, strengths-based coping strategies and techniques. I use evidence-based therapies to help identify self-limiting core beliefs and behavioral patterns that keep them feeling stuck, frustrated, and unsettled. I am especially adept at working with: 1) college/grad students, recent graduates, and young professionals (20s & 30s) experiencing anxiety, social anxiety, life transitions, perfectionism, procrastination, and relationship challenges; 2) educators and university professors; 3) women with complex trauma; and 4) adults with chronic illness.
