About

Stephanie Danial provides counseling through LifeStance Health's La Mesa office on Fletcher Parkway near Sharp Grossmont Hospital, holding California LMFT #119208 with graduate training in Counseling Psychology from National University and an undergraduate foundation from Rutgers University. Her psychotropic medication coordination with prescribing colleagues extends to dispensary partnerships along the Fletcher corridor, including Frost Medical Pharmacy for titration-phase refill timing. Clinical focus areas span postpartum depression, OCD, eating disorders, gender-identity exploration, bipolar disorder, and co-occurring substance use, treated across individual, couple, and family configurations for adults ages eighteen through sixty-four. The biopsychosocial framework behind her DBT and CBT interventions addresses the musculoskeletal tension that accompanies anxiety and hyperarousal states, a stress-body axis also treated at San Diego Chiropractic Doctors through spinal adjustment and neuromuscular rehabilitation in the same La Mesa corridor. Advanced caseloads involve dialectical behavior therapy skills-training modules targeting emotional dysregulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness deficits in patients with borderline personality features and chronic suicidal ideation histories.
