About Stephanie
She began her career working with children on the autism spectrum and adults in addiction recovery. Those early roles shaped her interest in trauma, life transitions, and long-term behavior change. Over a dozen years she expanded into areas like postpartum concerns, spiritual struggles, and LGBTQIA+ support while continuing work with grief and anger.
Stephanie describes her style as warm and straightforward. She values clear goals and practical steps, and she aims to move at a pace that feels sustainable. Sessions focus on small, consistent changes rather than quick fixes.
Her approach combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused work. That mix helps with emotional regulation, shifting unhelpful thinking, and building new coping habits.
People who connect with her can expect collaborative planning, simple tools to try between sessions, and respectful attention to identity and values. She invites anyone thinking about change to reach out and see if working together feels like the right fit.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. It emphasizes the relationship and the client’s own goals, which helps when sorting out midlife questions, identity concerns, or shifts in priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions together. It gives simple tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new habits, useful for anxiety, low mood, and managing urges tied to addiction.
Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept up in them. Practicing short exercises can reduce stress and improve focus during times of major life change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, values, and daily life. That might mean trying a few techniques and adjusting as things evolve.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find online work helps fit sessions into busy schedules, reduces travel time, and makes it easier to keep routine check-ins. Others prefer options that are shorter or that do not require video; ask what is offered so sessions match your needs and day-to-day life.
