Phillip Stepka, PsyD

Explore the interaction between your history, emotional style, relationships, and current circumstances as they affect and concern you. Together we collaborate on pathways to recovery and/or greater wellbeing, sense of self, and resiliency.

A balance of tactful irreverence and insightful. Refreshing to clients who want a therapeutic experience that is both professional and "real."

I was raised in a very non-traditional environment. Exposed to a wide variety of characters and situations which has made me passionately curious how and why people tick. Why some folks seem to thrive in adversity while others struggle? My journey for self and other understanding naturally led to applying this to others who may benefit.

Ultimately, I don't see myself as a talk therapist. I see myself as a nervous system therapist. Our work will focus heavily on helping regulate and restore your body and mind's stress response system.
