I am Stephanie Dutson, owner of Steps Mental Health Counseling. I have spent my adult life in pursuit of health and wellness and have worked in various jobs in the wellness field for more than 12 years. After working in the dance, fitness, and nutrition industries, I obtained a Master's Degree in Counseling and began my work in mental health. I absolutely love bringing my passion and expertise of physical, emotional, and mental health together to help others feel their best!
Throughout my life, I have seen how unhealthy habits, deeply-rooted beliefs, and life stressors can compound to leave people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and sometimes hopeless to change. I have had my share of life transitions and crisis moments, so I understand what it feels like when life keeps throwing you curve balls. We let the chaos of life leave us questioning who we really are and how to find fulfillment in the day-to-day grind. I believe we can find clarity, hope, and healing through a supportive, therapeutic relationship when we are able to feel validated and understood in our experiences. Better yet, I'd love to help you find some fun and joy along the way!
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Family Life Studies from Utah State University and a Master's Degree in Counseling from Oregon State University. I have extensive training and experience in treating issues related to anxiety, depression, trauma, self-worth, body image, and perfectionism.
