Description
Dr. Stephanie Rubain is the Founder and CEO of Rubain Counseling and Consulting, PLLC where she helps women of color reclaim their strength, heal old wounds, and step fully into their next era of becoming. With more than 30 years of experience, Dr. Rubain brings deep wisdom, clinical expertise, and compassion to her work as a therapist, consultant, and lifelong learner.
Her private practice is dedicated to supporting middle-aged women navigating life transitions—including menopause, career change, empty nesting, caregiving and relationship challenges. She believes that therapy is both a courageous act of self-love and a path toward wholeness. Clients who work with Dr. Rubain describe her as warm, grounded, and straightforward, someone who holds space for vulnerability while helping them take meaningful steps toward healing and growth.
Dr. Rubain works from an individualized, humanistic, and trauma-informed lens, blending modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), somatic work, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). Her goal is to empower each client to not only process their past but also to create a purposeful and fulfilling present.
Guided by her favorite philosophies—be the change you want to see and "carpe diem"—Dr. Rubain believes that growth is lifelong and healing is an act of courage. When she’s not in session, she finds peace in the mountains and joy in spending time with her friends and family. Her life and work are grounded in one truth: every woman deserves the chance to grow, heal, and thrive at every stage of her journey.
