Stephanie Faison, LCMHC

Stephanie Faison is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship tension, family conflict, self-esteem, and life transitions such as midlife changes. Stephanie emphasizes straightforward conversation and practical steps that make daily life feel more manageable.

She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Stephanie listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try different ways of responding.

Her work often combines ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness practices. That mix supports people who want to change unhelpful habits, handle difficult emotions, and focus on what matters to them. She uses simple exercises and short takeaways to build new skills between meetings.

Stephanie also addresses concerns like abandonment fears, codependency, caregiver stress, aging issues, and low motivation. She pays attention to how relationship patterns and family roles affect daily coping. The goal is clearer choices and steadier functioning in work, family, and personal life.

People who come for help find practical tools and steady support while they work toward clearer goals. To begin, prospective clients follow the practice's intake steps to match and schedule sessions based on availability.

How ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness inform online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them drive every choice. It supports people in clarifying values and taking small actions toward a more meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity, calm the mind, and improve focus.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions typically mix skill practice, reflection, and real-world experiments so clients can try new ways of coping between meetings.

Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins from home or during a break. It also allows therapists to assign in-the-moment exercises and follow up on progress between sessions, helping people apply skills directly to daily life.
