Stephanie

Hi, I'm Stephanie Oquendo and I am currently completing my internship at Helping Moon Counseling while pursuing my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Barry University.

Before stepping into this field, I spent over 13 years working in healthcare, with much of that time focused on supporting patients and families through emotionally difficult experiences. I saw how powerful it can be when someone feels truly heard and supported, and that became the reason I chose to become a therapist. I bring that same steady presence into my work with clients today.

I work with adult individuals navigating grief, major life transitions, relationship challenges, and the parts of life that can feel overwhelming or hard to put into words. I am calm, intuitive, and collaborative in my approach. My goal is to create a space where clients feel supported, understood, and empowered. Therapy with me is about building self-awareness, processing emotions, and taking steps toward healing and meaningful change.

I offer counseling in both English and Spanish and feel honored to walk alongside those who are ready to begin or continue their healing journey.
