Stephanie Burrel-Farrington, M.A., LPC, NCC

I experienced a significant trauma in high school that completely altered the course of my life. Before that, anxiety wasn’t something I thought much about. But from that point on, it became a persistent presence in my daily experience.

​

The joy I once felt as a passionate teen was taken from me, and I didn’t know how to regain control. Then, a friend encouraged me to try therapy. Through individual counseling, I learned how to process, overcome, and cope with my experience. I discovered that it was possible to live a life separate from anxiety and reclaim my sense of self. This transformative journey inspired me to dedicate my life to helping others find their own path forward, despite the pain, trauma, and misfortunes they have endured.

Therapeutic Approach​​

Hi, I’m Stephanie, a Licensed Professional Counselor and the proud founder of Arabella Counseling. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing just how complex and tender the human experience really is. We are born in relationship, hurt in relationship, and often left trying to figure out how to reconnect with ourselves and others along the way.

​

My approach isn’t about simply helping you manage your symptoms or putting a bandage on the pain. Together, we will uncover the deeper roots, the experiences, patterns, and wounds that shape your story. Too often, we spend years coping with or medicating what’s on the surface while the true causes remain buried. That’s what keeps us stuck in cycles and loops.

​

Authenticity is at the heart of my work. I believe real healing happens when we feel safe enough to be honest, when we can show up fully without pretending or performing. In our time together, we will do the hard work. We’ll pull up what no longer serves you and plant something healthier in its place, something that supports the life you want to live.

​

I truly believe healing is possible for everyone, and it would be an honor to walk alongside you as an ally, someone who is compassionate, steady, and honest. You deserve peace. You deserve wholeness. You deserve to live with a sound mind.
