Stephanie Nitschke

MS, LCGC

Stephanie completed her undergraduate degree in Biology and Psychology at the University of New Mexico in 2021. She went on to earn her Master of Science in Genetic Counseling from Bay Path University in 2025. Before beginning her clinical career, Stephanie worked in research at a nonprofit neurodegenerative research center in Albuquerque, where she focused on improving treatments and diagnostic methods for patients with Parkinson’s disease. This experience sparked a deep appreciation for both patient-centered care and the field of genetics.

Building on her early interest in genetics and patient advocacy, Stephanie felt called to work in reproductive health. She is passionate about prenatal genetic counseling and is dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care to families across New Mexico.

Outside of work, Stephanie enjoys rock climbing, spending time with her two dogs, and playing board games with friends.
