Therapists Who Care

  Many research studies indicate that most important factor in effective psychotherapy is a strong, positive relationship between the therapist and the client. Bearing this in mind, it is critical for you to find a good fit when selecting a therapist.    

  Each mental health professional chosen for the Transcendence team was selected due to not only excellent professional skills, but also their extraordinary level of empathy and compassion toward their clients. We truly care about are clients and are personally invested in the relationships we build with you.  


DR. STEPHANIE WILLIAMS, Ph.D.
Owner,  Licensed Psychologist 

My priority is to treat each person with compassion, respect, and kindness. I strive
to help my clients get to the
root of their challenges using experiential, emotional processing techniques to make lasting changes in their lives
and help them help themselves over a lifetime. 

I believe it is never too late to accomplish your life goals. I
have 22 years of experience helping people with depression, anxiety, bipolar, addictions, chronic illness, HIV/AIDS, grief, death/dying, post-traumatic stress, adjustment to disability, dissociative disorder, and
sexual and gender identity issues (LGBTQ+). 

I have a strong background in helping people recover from dysfunctional families and traumatic childhoods. I enjoy working with adults of all ages, including senior citizens, and
am experienced in working
with first responders - i.e., Police, Fire, EMS, teachers, and military and war veterans.

 LAURA WILLIAMS, MSW
 
Licensed Master of Social Work

Asking for help can be the most difficult first step in changing your situation. I aim to provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment for adults who are struggling with anxiety, life transitions, stress management, depression, relationship challenges, or substance abuse issues. I have 25 years’ experience working with multiple populations.

I believe every client has the strengths and skills to cope with life’s challenges and I am honored to work alongside my clients to uncover their strengths and develop the skills necessary to cope with their challenges and meet their goals. I work with each client as an individual, tailoring my therapeutic approach based on their strengths, needs, abilities, and preferences. Therapeutic modalities I utilize include motivational interviewing, CBT, and DBT. I work with my clients to help them identify their motivation for change, identify the way in which their thoughts, past experiences, and assumptions about events affect their emotional reactions, and learn and apply new skills and tools. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship and working towards change within that relationship.
