Take the stress out of affording therapy and start your self-care journey today

Meet Stephanie watson, Resident in counseling in Leesburg, VA

Stephanie Oage Art therapist.

Stephanie Watson, M.A., Resident in Counseling, ART-P

Specializing in art therapy, anxiety and depression, and EMDR.

I am a resident in counseling pursuing dual licensure in art therapy and talk therapy. With a deep belief that there is never a wrong time to start therapy, I see the therapeutic journey as a proactive step toward self-awareness, growth, and emotional well-being—rather than a reactive response to crisis.

My passion for art is not just a personal interest but a powerful tool I integrate into my therapeutic approach. I believe that creativity can unlock insights and healing in ways words sometimes cannot. Through the fusion of traditional talk therapy and expressive art techniques, I create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their inner worlds, process emotions, and build resilience.

I have been trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and in-progress doing the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS).

I am committed to helping individuals of all backgrounds discover the transformative potential of therapy—whether through conversation, canvas, or both. 

I practice under the supervision of Caroline Cook, Ed.D., LPC, ATR-BC. 

Together, we’ll identify what you want to work on and change and take the necessary steps to help you understand your true self and achieve your goals.

Work with LCSW, Amy White in Leesburg, VA. Expertise in ADHD, eating disorders, and perinatal mental health.
