See what our patients are saying about Stephanie McKenny

Mrs. S. McKenny is very beneficial to me. She's very thorough. I enjoy my sessions or time with her. She allows me to share as much as I like. She gives me opportunities to express my thoughts and feelings. I just simply love the assignments for homework to work on here at home. It helps me to be mindful and to apply the things we have discussed. She encourages me to dig deep and try to see myself as an asset and nothing less. My confidence in myself is growing. I am learning to say "NO," and not feel bad nor guilty about it. Overall, I would have to say I am blessed to have her as my Counselor. and Dr. Walkup as my Physician. Amen!!!

Ms. McKinney was very welcoming and we covered a lot of background information in our initial session that did not feel overwhelming or stressful. I was comfortable to start opening up and talking with her right from the start!
