Stephanie Tumba, LMHC

Stephanie Tumba is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She uses a direct, respectful style and focuses on building practical skills that can be used between sessions. Stephanie emphasizes sensitivity and compassion while working with each person. She draws on seven years of professional experience and adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s situation. Sessions often include goal-setting, skill practice, and straightforward strategies for managing mood and motivation. Stephanie pays attention to how daily habits, relationships, and thinking patterns affect wellbeing. Her approach blends behavioral tools with mindfulness and values-based work to help people make meaningful changes. She also uses techniques that support emotional regulation, communication, and coping after loss or trauma. When addictions or caregiver strain are present, she helps people break problems into manageable steps. Stephanie aims to create space for honest talk and practical problem solving. She encourages small changes that add up over time and checks in on what works for each person. Progress is framed as steady effort rather than instant fixes. Clients from Washington can expect a therapist who listens, adjusts plans as needed, and focuses on skills that fit everyday life. To start, she asks questions about priorities and builds a plan that matches those goals.
