Stephanie Alipanopoulos, MEd, RP (Qualifying)

​Hi, I’m Stephanie. My work is grounded in collaboration, compassion, and unconditional acceptance for my clients. I believe that all patients bring a unique perspective along with ample life experiences that should be used to guide their therapeutic journey, incorporating evidence-based techniques along the way.

​

My approach is informed by the belief that patients are not defined by their issues or challenges, but rather that these aspects are merely parts of their identity as a whole. Incorporating the important details of one’s personal identity and beliefs is a valued aspect of our therapeutic relationship. Integrating this approach with evidence-based strategies of cognitive-behavioural, solution-focused, person-centered, and narrative therapy, I am positive we can find an approach to best fit your needs.

​

Many patients come to therapy with a specific challenge or problem they wish to work through, while others may not have as clear of a goal. Either way, by working together with a collaborative approach, we can identify the specific goals and wishes you would like to achieve.

​

My self-care activities include spending time with family and friends, reading a good fantasy novel, watching bad reality TV, and I am always listening to music whenever I can. I also like to engage in some creative hobbies such as woodworking and furniture restoration.

​

Beginning your therapeutic experience can seem intimidating at first, but I guarantee that together we can find the best approach for you. I look forward to getting to know you better and learning how to support you through whatever life has to offer.
