About Stephanie
Stephanie adapts conversations and plans to each person’s needs. She focuses on practical changes that reduce stress and improve day-to-day functioning. That can mean working on sleep, managing anger, or building routines that support recovery from addiction or chronic illness.
Her background includes almost three decades of clinical experience. Stephanie has worked with concerns such as grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people navigating autism and Asperger syndrome, attachment issues, cancer-related coping, caregiver stress, and aging and geriatric matters.
Therapy often combines clear skill-building with emotionally focused work. Techniques may include ways to notice thoughts without getting stuck, strengthening close relationships, and practicing small actions that reflect a person’s values. Sessions are practical and aimed at helping people feel steadier and more able to handle life's changes.
Stephanie emphasizes listening first and then making a plan together. She aims to help people feel heard, build coping skills, and find realistic steps toward their goals.

How Stephanie uses therapy approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without letting them control actions. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation by clarifying values and building small, value-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns and improve sleep, mood, or worry. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on relationship patterns and emotional bonds, which can be useful for intimacy-related concerns and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That means trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan as needed so it fits the person’s life and aims.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and allow someone to meet without traveling. Licensed professionals can use these same approaches effectively in remote sessions, helping people practice skills and work through feelings in ways that suit their schedule.
