About Stephanie
Hello!
My name is Stephanie Lanza. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist located in Southern California. I have over 8 years of experience counseling children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a wide range of concerns including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, ADHD, and family/relationship issues. I also have extensive experience working with adoptive and resource/foster parents and the unique issues they encounter.
I take a client centered and strengths based approach to counseling, utilizing components of Cognitive Behavioral, Solutions Focused, and Family Systems therapies to help clients meet their goals.
I look forward to working with you!

What clients say
- “I was working with Stephanie for almost a year, messaging daily for several months and eventually every other week / taking a break (this is a good thing!). She did a fabulous job addressing my needs, sharing helpful resources, responding thoughtfully to my novel-length messages, and being an all-around attentive, personable provider. I appreciated her questions and perspective to my thoughts, and I'm so proud of my growth during this time! It's been like night to day! I can't recommend Stephanie enough.”
- “Stephanie is excellent!”
- “Stephanie is exactly the kind of professional I wanted to be matched with. Not only did she help validate my childhood and help me process old wounds, but she also gave me strategies for the present and future anxieties I have. Thank you for everything you do, Stephanie!”
