Stephanie Rineer,

Hello, I’m Stephanie Rineer (she/her), MS, a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor (LAPC). Thank you for visiting my page. I’m so glad you’re here.

I offer counseling to Adolescents (ages 9 to 12), teens (ages 13 to 17), young adults (18 years and older), and adults in-person in Hershey, PA, and online across Pennsylvania.

Supporting Your Journey

I believe therapy can be a place where hope is gently rediscovered and growth is nurtured over time. If you are feeling overwhelmed, navigating change, or longing for greater balance, I strive to offer a space where you feel supported, understood, and encouraged as you move forward.  Using a trauma-informed and strengths-based lens, I will work to honor both your struggles and your resilience. Together, we can build insight, strengthen coping, and create meaningful shifts that align with the life you want to live.

Ultimately, I see therapy as a collaborative journey grounded in trust, compassion, and authenticity, and I feel privileged to walk alongside you as you reconnect with yourself and your capacity for growth.

My Therapy Specialties – How I Can Help

I offer therapy for a broad range of mental health needs, such as caregiver stress, anger management, anxiety, attachment issues, body image, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), chronic pain/illness, co-dependency, depression, relationship issues, grief & loss, LGBTQIA+ support, postpartum, OCD, Personality Disorders (PD), self-harm & self esteem, substance use, suicidal ideation, sleep issues, trauma and PTSD, and more.

Techniques Used In Therapy

My therapeutic approach is influenced by Humanistic and Psychodynamic perspectives, which means I emphasize understanding your story, relationships, and internal experiences through a supportive, authentic connection.

Alongside this foundation, I draw on evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and DBT to offer practical tools to support coping, emotional regulation, and values-based living. I view therapy as individualized and collaborative, and I will work to integrate approaches in ways that feel relevant and helpful for your unique goals.

Education and Background

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Millersville University. My background includes case management work within transitional housing and workforce development settings, where I supported individuals through periods of change while helping them identify strengths, pursue goals, and connect with resources. I later began clinical work in community mental health, providing therapeutic support focused on insight development, resilience, and personal growth.

About Me

Outside of being a therapist, I enjoy spending meaningful time with loved ones, getting lost in a good book, exploring creative projects, and tending to my houseplants.
