About Stephanie

She focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strains, family conflict, and coping with life changes. Stephanie aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful for people who are tired or overwhelmed.
Her style is warm and collaborative. She listens closely and helps people name what’s getting in the way. Then she works with them to try practical strategies and small behavior changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Stephanie uses a few clear methods to guide sessions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches help identify unhelpful thoughts, test new ways of coping, and build a stronger sense of self-direction. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques are also part of her toolkit when clients want focused goals or help finding motivation.
With four years of experience, she balances support with action. Sessions often include checking current coping, practicing new skills, and planning realistic next steps. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who reach out can expect a calm, no-pressure tone. Stephanie helps clients set the pace and keeps work practical. Her background as an LCMHC in North Carolina informs how she approaches common life stresses and transitions.

Online support
How her approaches fit online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. In online sessions this looks like the therapist asking open questions, summarizing concerns, and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot and test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. Practically, CBT online often uses short exercises, worksheets, and between-session tasks to track progress and notice patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That collaborative plan can shift over time as needs change and as progress becomes clearer.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit short conversations into a busy day. These options offer flexibility so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort while still working toward clearer coping and better daily routines.
