Hello I’m Stephanie Amundson and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist

I specialize in trauma recovery/PTSD, and substance use. My training has also prepared me in working with clients with histories of domestic abuse/violence,  sexual abuse/assault, PTSD from work trauma (i.e. military/first responders). In addition to this experience, I also work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, working through life transitions, and wanting to learn healthy ways to manage daily stressors.

I understand that true healing takes time, care, and attention. Being here with you to help in your recovery, in whatever ways are important to you, is my priority!

I work through a lens that offers clients to have their voices heard, be understood, all while not being judged and cared for, to help clients with their specific needs and goals. As an online trauma therapist, I believe that my own past experiences have helped me connect with my clients and form trustworthy therapeutic relationships. When working with individuals, young adults, and families, I hope to bring a sense of compassion, kindness, trust, and empathy.

I treat therapy like a casual conversation, meaning I listen and talk with you – not at you, and use humor and sarcasm frequently. Think of chatting with a friend at a coffee shop, only I know a thing or two about mental health – how to support clients and guide change.

I am passionate for helping others and have a passion for learning.

  • I’m ready to improve myself or relationship
  • I’m ready to thrive in life
  • I’m open to help in life’s journey

Education and Affiliations

I graduated with my Bachelors degree with a major in Justice Studies from Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago, IL, in 2017 and then went on to receive my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a certification in Substance Abuse Counseling from Adler University, also in Chicago, in 2019.

Me outside the therapy room

When I am not counseling clients, I love spending time with family and friends. I love to watch interesting documentaries or fun movies; I also love to listen to music or podcasts and paint for self-care. I also train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), a martial art, at my local academy in my spare time.
