About Stephanie

Her approach centers on listening first and helping clients find practical steps forward. Stephanie earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lubbock Christian University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from West Virginia University. She brings four years of clinical experience to her work and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and stress-related concerns. In sessions she helps people find their voice and figure out what matters to them. She emphasizes self-accountability and supports clients in becoming their own best advocates. Conversations are aimed at clear goals and useful skills rather than vague talk. Her work also attends to related challenges like communication problems, guilt and shame, and issues tied to aging, post-traumatic stress, and substance use. She assists people dealing with the fallout of disasters and first responder stress, and helps those coping with domestic violence and co-morbidity. Stephanie combines practical skills with steady support. She aims to guide people toward tangible changes they can use outside sessions. If someone wants help sorting emotions, managing anger, or moving through grief, she focuses on steps that fit daily life.

How evidence-based techniques guide online work

Stephanie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address grief, trauma, addiction, anger, and depression. One common approach focuses on building practical coping skills and emotion regulation to manage intense feelings like anger and grief. This involves short exercises, breathing or grounding practices, and step-by-step behavior changes to reduce reactive responses. Another approach emphasizes processing past painful experiences and post-traumatic stress in manageable pieces. This method helps people name what happened, notice how it shows up now, and slowly practice new ways of responding that reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and the therapist adjust methods over time based on what is most helpful. Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the source biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow more consistent check-ins. It can also let people choose quieter times for focused work or opt for shorter sessions when schedules demand it.
