Ms. Stephanie Perkins practices counseling in Rochester, IL.

"I nor my children see Stephanie professionally, and I don’t recommend any one too. Stephanie is unprofessional. She reached out to my minor child to manipulate her to get her to not speak to me. I have messages between Stephanie and her friends stating her intentions. I don’t believe she has any morals, ethics or standards and is definitely not above manipulating her own children to not speak to their father. As previously stated, I do not recommend anyone see her professionally."

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a type of professional guidance for handling problems in life. There are many types of counselors, and they serve an incredibly wide variety of people with all kinds of different needs. There are general counselors, marriage and family counselors, school and student counselors, career and vocational counselors, religious counselors, and gerontological counselors specifically for the elderly.

In all cases, counseling works when the client and the counselor talk to each other and develop a trusting relationship. The counselor listens respectfully to the client's problems. Then the two together work on identifying goals, increasing coping skills to overcome any troubles, and improving useful skills such as communication. The goals of counseling will be different for each person, but generally they include an increased sense of well being, decreased distress and anxiety, resolved crisis, and increased ability and function in daily life.
