Meet Stephanie Bradley-Blue, M.Div., LPC
About Me
I am the founder of My Life Speaks Counseling & Coaching, where I walk alongside individuals, couples, and families as they heal, grow, and reclaim their voice. Counseling is not simply my profession—it is my passion and calling.
I bring over 25 years of experience in counseling and coaching, including six years of post-licensure clinical practice, serving individuals across educational, community, and clinical settings. My clinical background includes work with acute psychiatric populations at Virginia Beach Psychiatric Center, as well as extensive experience in substance abuse treatment, trauma-informed care, and youth mental health.
I especially enjoy working with couples, supporting them as they navigate communication challenges, relational patterns, and life transitions. My approach is integrative and client-centered, drawing from evidence-based practices while honoring each client as the expert of their own life. I believe our life stories are not fixed—when supported, they can be reframed, rewritten, and strengthened.
My academic training includes a Master of Divinity and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Regent University, along with an undergraduate degree from The College of New Jersey. In addition to my clinical work, I spent 15 years as an educator, which deeply informs my work with children, adolescents, and families.
I bring particular insight and advocacy for parents of children with special needs and offer coaching for lifestyle change, growth, and personal development. I have served my community in many capacities over the years, and it remains a privilege to join people on their journey.
At My Life Speaks, I believe that with support, awareness, and commitment, new chapters of healing, resilience, and hope are always possible.
