Stephanie Gore

Stephanie Gore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns with calm, straightforward guidance. Stephanie builds sessions around the person in front of her rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

She draws on methods like cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, and client-centered listening to help people name what matters and take small, steady steps. Sessions often include plain skills for coping with panic, social anxiety, or workplace pressure. Stephanie also pays attention to how culture and life experience shape each person's struggles.

Many people come to her to improve communication, clarify life purpose, or recover from trauma and loss. She also supports those coping with anger, relationship strain, parenting stress, or concerns tied to aging and end-of-life planning. Intellectual disability is listed among her focus areas and is considered alongside other needs when planning care.

Her style is practical and collaborative. Expect clear goals, simple homework when useful, and a respectful tone in sessions. Stephanie aims to help people build routines that reduce overwhelm and increase meaning in daily life.

She has four years of experience as a practicing counselor in South Carolina. That background informs how she balances therapeutic techniques with real-life problem solving and culturally aware care.

How her approaches guide online work

Stephanie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change reactions. CBT often helps with anxiety, panic, low mood, and social fears by teaching practical strategies.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take action toward them even when feelings are uncomfortable. ACT can be useful for stress, avoidance, and building a sense of meaning. Client-centered work is part of her style too, which means she listens closely and follows what matters most to each person.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that fit their goals and adjust plans over time. Expect the therapist to check in about what’s helping and change course if needed.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists also often adapt exercises and between-session tasks so they work well in everyday settings.
