Stephanie Morfitt, LCSW More Fit Mental Health
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life is hard to navigate. If communicating with others is difficult, if you constantly feel nervous, are grieving, or having family and relationship problems, I am here for you.
I have a passion for working with women weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or overwhelm. You may struggle finding balance in your life, feeling at peace with who you are, or expressing your needs in relationships.
Do you feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, or avoiding difficult emotions? I will help you develop a personalized set of tools to ease the emotional distress that weighs you down, more importantly, you will feel confident, capable, & secure in your relationships & daily life.
I BELIEVE:
We all carry contradictions. It’s okay to have mixed feelings— life is complex.
Relationships are worth nurturing. With the right tools, we can communicate with more kindness and hear each other with more love.
You deserve the freedom to make your own choices—and to honor what’s right for you.
Bringing a balance of heart and humor to the therapy space helps clients find healing, resilience, and joy—one small moment at a time.
Call me for a free 20-minute consultation to see what it’s like to work together. During our call, you’ll get a genuine feel for my therapy style, ask questions about the process, and explore what real progress could look like for you. Whether you’re new to therapy or looking for a different approach, this is a warm, no-pressure space to connect and find out if we’re the right fit.

Dr. Joshua A. Goldstein
Psychologist, Psy.D.
So, you're dealing with life's transitions, but it manifests as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or lowered self-esteem. These may be diagnoses, but you're so much more than that. You are who you are because of your experiences, which means you already have the tools and ability to move yourself forward. You just don’t know it yet.
Finding the right therapist can be a daunting process and I want to build that unique relationship with you. I work from an insight-oriented perspective and focus on the connections between your childhood experiences and current circumstances. Those early experiences laid the groundwork and can provide blueprints to addressing the issues you're currently facing.
The difficulty can be uncovering those blueprints and it’s my job to help you discover them.

Susan Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I work with adults from every walk of life and in diverse circumstances. What nearly all have in common is that they tell me that things don’t feel manageable anymore. Life has gotten out of hand, and feelings like anxiety, self-doubt, depression, and disappointment seem to be taking over – if they haven’t already. Some might think they are “going crazy!” Others feel selfish because they crave self-care and a break from never being enough.
My job (and privilege) is to come alongside you to provide support, feedback, and help you better understand things and make plans to improve things. Sometimes, I will validate feelings that you’ve discounted or point out challenges you’ve grown so accustomed to that you brush them aside, even though they are part of what trips you up. Together, we’ll gain perspectives and insights about how to make things better.
In session, we will review the week for clues about what to focus on. We will talk about how things went and how they could have turned out better. I’ll ask many questions, listen a lot, and work with you to identify options for improving life. You’ll tear up sometimes, but you’ll be surprised how often we chuckle.
