Hello! I’m Stephanie Narvaez, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College. I’m passionate about helping people heal and grow, particularly those navigating the complexities of trauma. I’ve had the privilege of working with at-risk youth in foster care, which has given me a unique perspective on resilience, healing, and the power of human connection.
My approach to therapy is holistic, warm, and deeply rooted in the belief that every individual is inherently whole. Rather than viewing people as "broken" or in need of fixing.
Culture is a vital part of my work, and I honor each person's unique background and identity.In therapy, I blend elements from Eastern, Indigenous, and Western practices; creating a safe and supportive space for you to explore your emotions and experiences.
Whether you’re facing challenges, working through trauma, or seeking personal growth, I’m committed to walking alongside you. My goal is to create a warm and nurturing environment where you feel empowered to heal at your own pace.
Outside of therapy, I find peace in nature, close friendships, and creative arts, all of which inspire my work. I look forward to supporting you on your path to healing and self-discovery.
From anxiety and depression to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), we utilize holistic talk therapies and innovative treatments like eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR).
