Alexandra House, LPC

I've dedicated my life to what brings me joy. It happens to be, being there for others when they need it most. Watching my clients heal & learn to love themselves & others is my passion. I'm experienced, qualified & motivated to be there for you.

"You're amazing just the way you are. It's time you know it."

During my years of tenure as a professional counselor I have found a few simple truths. Anxiety is real & it is ok. Let's turn it into a strength. Trauma, depression & abuse are real. Heal them & become stronger. Everyone deserves help & no one should go through it alone. Perhaps its lack of sleep, lack of self-care, lack of motivation, intrusive thoughts, diminishing personal connections, avoiding social engagements, over/under eating, or removing ourselves from the ones we love. Most of us will experience these very real issues at varying levels during different points in our lives. I’ve been there & I get it.

Heidi Pino, LAC

I value the uniqueness of my clients and use various proven techniques to help them heal. My specialty is assisting clients suffering from depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and trauma.

"Use one hand to reach the top of the mountain, and the other to help another up."

I'm a proud mother of two, and know the value of family. Travel is my passion, as I visit at least one new country a year. I'm always happy to use the new perspectives to help see through all of the different lenses of my clients. The outdoors is my second home, and truly appreciate the wonders of nature. Physical fitness is also an important part of my lifestyle. I'm also fluent in Spanish and aim to serve all in our community in the best way I know how.

Richard Novitske, LAC

I firmly believe no none should have to live with the shadow of trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, or abuse, and I've made it my passion to guide others to healing. There so much life to live and amazing experiences to have. Let healing set you free. Everyone deserves a voice, and in my office, we are always equals on the journey. I welcome absolutely anyone who desires to live a better, more peaceful, and full life.

Originally from the Chicago area, the valley has been my home for the better part of 25 years. I hold family, friends, and my pets close to my heart, and I love seeking out new experiences.

I hope this resonates with you, and I can't wait to see you soon!

"I worked with Stephanie for a brief time while I made a tough decision. She is focused, empathetic and highly skilled. We used DBT and ACT. She made sure I got the most out of every session and that my problem was fully resolved. I will definitely be back if life feels overwhelming again. Thank you Stephanie!"
