Clinical Social Work Practice – Stef Wolf Therapy
Stef Wolf Therapy is a clinical social work practice based in Santa Cruz, California, operated by Stefanie Wolf, LCSW. Wolf holds credentials as a Hakomi Therapist, EMDR Therapist, and Compassion Cultivation Teacher, bringing a range of somatic and trauma-focused methods to her work with individual and couples clients.
Located at 108 Locust Street, Suite 15, Santa Cruz, CA 95060, the practice centers on psychotherapy informed by the Hakomi Method and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). The Hakomi Method is a somatic, mindfulness-based approach that works with body sensation, habitual patterns, and present-moment experience. EMDR is a structured protocol the practice uses in addressing the impacts of trauma. Both methods are offered alongside broader psychotherapy services for individuals and couples.
The stated clinical focus of the practice is “working with the impacts of trauma and the development of greater sense of self.” Wolf’s therapeutic orientation holds that clients are already whole and that therapy involves helping people slow habitual patterns and connect more deeply with their own inner experience. The practice describes its approach as one that helps clients understand themselves more fully so they can relate to themselves and others in ways that feel authentic.
In addition to individual and couples psychotherapy, the practice indicates involvement with somatic education, awareness through movement classes, and group or class formats, though the homepage offers limited detail on these additional offerings. The practice does not specify on its main page whether telehealth is available, and no information about insurance acceptance or self-pay rates is listed. No year of establishment is stated.
