Our therapists are well acquainted with the struggles that come with pursuing higher education. Maybe you are just starting out and leaving home for the first time.

Hi there, welcome! My name is Dr. Steffanie Grossman (she/her/hers). I am a Psychologist, Certified Eating Disorders Specialist and registered Animal-Assisted Therapist with a small dog/tootsie-roll lookalike named Rockstar. I provide therapy for a wide range of concerns, with specialties in the areas of eating disorders, self-esteem, and LGBTQ+ related concerns. Rockstar is frequently in the room, so you can pet him to self-soothe, look at him to distract or allow yourself to be more open, or to just laugh at when he wants his belly rubs. Therapy is something I am very passionate about, and I truly enjoy helping my clients empower themselves to live the lives they wish to live and increase self-compassion. I hope this page and my website can help you determine if we would be a good team in helping you reach your goals, find empowerment through your struggles, and embrace peace. I'd be happy to talk with you further during a free brief phone consultation to further help decide. I would love to hear from you.

At the heart of my practice lies a commitment to person-centered care. I am guided by evidence-based practices, ensuring that our journey is grounded in approaches backed by research and proven effectiveness. Your path towards mental wellness is unique, and it deserves a tailored approach that resonates with your individual needs and experiences. While therapy modalities play a crucial role in addressing underlying issues and fostering resilience, I also understand that for some, medication can be an essential tool in managing symptoms and restoring balance. Specializing in depression, anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, grief, coping skills, and eating disorder, I tailor treatment plans that integrate therapy and medication management, ensuring a holistic approach to mental well-being. Together, we navigate the complexities of the mind, empowering you to cultivate inner strength and resilience on your path towards healing.

I specialize in working with highly sensitive people (HSP) who are trapped in a generational trauma cycle causing relational and career setbacks, upcycle their energy to develop a clear sense of self, change relationship patterns, and make satisfying career advancements.

My path started by working in alternative high schools, and then as a career counselor in management and business development roles for a few universities and military populations. I have over 18 years of experience working in education, career development, and mental health. My experience growing up in Flint, Michigan, and being the first in my family to attend college, shaped how I view and overcome challenges. I specialize in support for working professionals, especially teachers, nurses, and students with anxiety or depression who are struggling in their careers, education, or relationships. Many feel stuck, burnt out, angry, and overwhelmed. Chronic stress makes it hard for them to connect with their instructors, bosses, and peers. Time management is an issue and constantly trying to keep up. Some may prefer to be alone, even though it leads to ruminating over traumatic work experiences and substance use. My clients have demanding jobs and/or class schedules, and are highly trained and accustomed to solving problems. However, no one is immune to the long-term effects of stress and trauma. I have over 18 years working in counseling, higher education, and career development. My communication style is warm, yet solution-focused, often encouraging you to think from the end, build your resilience, and focus on the future. Some clients get what they need to make a positive change in 6-8 sessions. Others enjoy my long-term support to address trauma. First time trying talk therapy? Congrats on taking the first step. I value confidentiality and understand the college campus and workplace cultures. You do not have to go through this alone. Let's get you out of survival mode and start to thrive. Reach out to schedule your complimentary 15-minute consultation today. I look forward to talking with you.
