Posted on Google Allison ChaseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephanie has been instrumental in helping me build confidence and get my life back on track. She listens, has practical advice I can put into practice, and leaves me feeling encouraged after each session. I appreciate her flexibility with appointment times and accommodating increases/decreases in session frequency as my needs have changed. It’s been tough to find someone who I trust to stay a step ahead and to be more than just a listening ear - she shares tools and offers perspective without condescension, understands when I need support and encouragement, and also knows when to call me out and hold me accountable to myself. I feel like Stephanie genuinely cares and is invested in my healing and growth, and I’m so grateful to have found her.Posted on Google Emily EldridgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly highly recommend this practice to anyone who is seeking therapy. Stephanie is amazing, she’s so easy to talk to and really takes the time to listen to what you’re saying and then provides the right tools and techniques to help you through what you’re going through. She has really helped me see different perspectives of different issues I have had and has overall helped me in general through even just my everyday issues. Again I would highly recommend!!Posted on Google Casey TheodorsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephanie at High expectations counseling was so amazing, she was kind and understanding but also pushed me to achieve all my therapy goals. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who genuinely cares about her clients.Posted on Google WarhawkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have only been in a few sessions and my therapist Ray is very patient, understanding, and listens to me. She is very professional and flexible to my needs and often makes last min changes to accommodate me as new events happen that I'm in therapy for. I've had previous experiences with other mental health professionals and my therapist lives up to the company name. If it wasn't for tge support I e found here I don't know how well I could handle my current struggles.Posted on Google Ashley RobinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I’m finally making progress mentally!Posted on Google Mandi RecioTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was amazing to work with Razaina.

Sally High I really appreciate you helping me become a better person you really save my life I was so depressed over what I done in my marriage thank you for working with me and putting in extra work one day I will tell my story and help othersPosted on Google AJ M.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend High Expectations Counseling Orlando enough! I found them at a very difficult point in my marriage and personal life and am so incredibly thankful I did. I’ve been working with Stephanie Corchado for about six months now, in both couples and individual settings, and can’t imagine where I would be without her help. She has consistently been professional, kind, empathetic, and a tremendous resource for navigating one of the most difficult periods of my life. She has gone out of her way to make sure that we have been able to meet consistently despite often limited availability on my part, and has been a wonderful communicator between sessions as well. Even with the often extremely difficult subjects we’ve faced, she has proven to be a bright, positive presence who I always look forward to seeing and working with, no matter how difficult the challenges we are working on. I can’t say enough about how lucky I feel to have found High Expectations Counseling Orlando, and to have the privilege to work with Stephanie. I’ve had a multitude of experiences with counseling and therapy through the years, but I can honestly say that I have never had a better experience than this. Regardless of how difficult things have been, she has helped keep me positive and focused on the not just making it through this period, but finding ways to come out of it better and stronger. When we first began working together, I thought I was there for just one concern, but over time she helped me identify other, more fundamental issues I wasn’t even aware of, and has given me the tools, resources, and encouragment to address those factors. She has tailored her approach to my counseling to best fit the ways that best learn grow, including recommending books that have further helped me grow and given me new tools and strategies. She has done so much for me and I would truly be lost without her gentle help and guidance. In all my years of working on my mental health with a variety of caregivers, I can honestly say I have not found a more helpful, knowledgeable, and understanding practitioner than Stephanie. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to work with her. Our sessions are a genuine highlight of my week, even as we’ve faced incredibly difficult subjects. I always feel heard and can tell that she truly cares about my situation, and I leave each session feeling so much better about everything to the point that friends and family can actually tell when I recently had a session just from my my mood. Also—and it’s not as important as the wonderful care I’ve received—the office itself is lovely, very cozy, and has a way of immediately putting you at ease and making you feel at home, which may not seem like a big deal, but is actually a huge benefit when you arrive, apprehensive about what you know you’re going to need to discuss. There’s a peace and tranquility as soon as you walk through the door that is unique in all my years of working with mental health providers. I didn’t need to write this much, or reiterate over and over what wonderful care I’ve received from Stephanie and how grateful I am for finding High Expectations Counseling Orlando, but I know there are other people out there looking for a place to have someone listen to them, validate them and their feelings, and help guide them toward solutions in a kind and compassionate way, and I just want those people to know that HIgh Expections Counseling Orlando is exactly what they’re looking for. They’ve done so much there to help me, and I want other people in dark places and in need of similar help to know that there are people out there who care and who can offer the support and compassionate care they deserve. I’m just lucky enough to have found them, and I know that other people will feel the same way if they give it a chance.Posted on Google Yvette GonzalezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend High Expectations Counseling in Orlando! I’m very picky when it comes to seeking care and even more so when the topic is mental wellness. After hours of research I came across this practice and noticed that it met most (if not all) of my expectations. Picking the right specialist is important and I’m so thankful that I did my due diligence and took my time. My therapist Stephanie, is the best. She is patient, empathetic, nonjudgemental, and a great listener. I would recommend this practice to those seeking care. At HE, YOU come first!Posted on Google Kerstin ThomsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephanie at High Expectation Counceling has been so helpful in guiding me through a difficult time, her advice has been very pragmatic and spot on which enabled me to apply the right corrective actions immediately, I highly recommend her.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
