Stefanie Gilbert

Stefanie Gilbert, PhD, is a compassionate psychologist dedicated to guiding individuals toward happier, healthier lives. She believes that meaningful change often requires embracing new approaches, empowering each person to cultivate better relationships with themselves. Recognizing that many individuals did not learn effective coping mechanisms during childhood, Stefanie emphasizes that these skills can be developed in adulthood, fostering greater happiness at every life stage. Her primary aim is to enhance well-being by encouraging self-care through mindful awareness of thoughts and emotions. Specializing in eating disorders, anxiety, and depression, Stefanie assists her clients in uncovering the roots of their symptoms, replacing self-harming behaviors with healthy, effective coping strategies. She encourages kindness and compassion in self-responses, whether dealing with hunger, emotions, or life’s challenges. By employing a range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Compassion-Focused Therapy, Stefanie empowers her clients to find relief from anxiety, depression, and self-harming behaviors, ultimately paving the way for a fulfilling, balanced life.
