Stephanie Horner

Stephanie Horner, LPCC, aims to help people who are drained by anger, stress, or ongoing worry find clearer ways to cope. She presents as warm and approachable, and she focuses on practical steps that fit everyday life. Many people come to her feeling stuck after changes, losses, or repeated arguments. She helps them identify problems, set goals, and build skills that make a difference day to day.

Stephanie has 25 years of counseling experience and a longer background in healthcare. Before counseling she spent a decade in nursing, including work in high-risk labor and delivery and school health leadership. That early work shaped her attention to people under pressure and to real-world solutions.

Her approach blends client-centered care with structured tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice patterns of thought and behavior, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, and mindfulness to calm the body and mind. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused techniques help move small changes into lasting routines.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. She listens first, then helps clients pick a few manageable skills to practice between visits. Parents can get concrete strategies for child-related stress and parenting strain while adults may focus on anger, anxiety, sleep, or work issues.

Stephanie works from New Mexico and offers services in English. She accepts international clients and draws on years of varied experience to tailor support to each person’s needs.

How Stephanie's Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what matters most and take small actions that reflect those values. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life transitions where choices feel blocked. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, or sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to the client’s goals and symptoms, then suggest methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and preferences become clear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in can fit into a work break, or not being on camera can reduce fatigue. It also lets people connect across distances, which supports those living outside the therapist’s region. Licensed professionals tailor session pacing and homework to each person, helping skills transfer into everyday routines.
