Retraumatized me for two years. I had a very serious history of unresolved compounded complex trauma. I had unresolved trauma from ECT and Stefanie Goldstein failed to perform a historical healthcare intake.

Stefanie Goldstein is a human trafficking agent in my opinion. Stefanie saw my trauma dysregulation she also watched as I ruined my personal and professional reputation at my place of employment. She giggled about it right to my face.

Laughing the entire two years. Very harmful. Stefanie texted me a month after my last appointment asking me for my somatic practitioner phone number.

Stefanie Goldstein is trauma insensitive and is not a trauma specialist as it is listed in her website. I had a psychotic break immediately after her two years of abuse/ exploitation. Arrogantly shrugging her shoulders at my trauma dysregulation - openly mocking me.

Three times denied disability. Ongoing trauma discharge from my body. Continued isolation. Stefanie is very aware of the lawlessness of this medical system and enjoys abuse of institutional power at her clients expense.

Life endangering harm from this woman. No accountability or acknowledgement of her harm.

Healthcare is lawless snd she is aware of that.

My anxiety was so high before seeing Stefanie and through her step-by-step guidance, I was able to learn skills that have been so helpful these past 18 months of the pandemic! Honestly, I can't say more about her professionalism and her compassion which means a lot to me.

I have been to a handful of therapist over the past 2 decades and what I can attest to in regards to Dr. Stefanie Goldstein is that she has a unique style of active listening, mindful awareness, and healing patterns to completion. Dr. Goldstein's tender demeanor, approach to building a connection and skilled interactive discussions have deeply impacted me and my family. She has helped me to transform as a Mother and Entrepreneur. Dr. Goldstein has this keen ability to cut thru to the core issue and help me hold it, sit with it, as she encourages me to create space to unfold these traumas that have held me hostage for half a century. She is patient and kind. I feel seen and heard . While she is slightly younger than me in age, her wisdom transcends any real time because of her remarkable wisdom and distinctive style of active listening. Her mindfulness background has influenced me to create my own meditation practice . The hurt that I have healed with her masterful guidance has been deeply impactful and life affirming. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Goldstein as a constant support in my life. I know anyone, whatever age, needing a skilled therapist would benefit from working with Dr. Stefanie Goldstein.

I am a public school teacher and had the wonderful opportunity to take a class on mindfulness and social-emotional learning with Dr. Goldstein during COVID. It was without a doubt, the most timely, relevant, and truly helpful class that I have taken in quite some time.
This class helped me learn strategies to manage the stress and anxiety of being an educator during COVID, as well as gave me helpful and tangeable tools to support my students during the unique time. Dr. Goldstein was open, kind, humorous, and informative. She could deeply empathize with our struggles of being educators during this intense time and offered supportive ways to navigate it all with greater ease.

Unprofessional behavior. Told me my payment had been. Turns out it was someone else but she just assumed it was me because I told her I was having financial problems in session.
