Stephanye Clagett

Stephanye Clagett is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina who moved into therapy after more than a decade working as a chiropractor. She saw how physical pain and emotional distress often connect, and that led her to focus on mental health. Stephanye aims to help people figure out what's driving their struggles and build better ways to cope.

She works with adults, teens, and couples facing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, and life transitions. Her style is warm and collaborative. Sessions are tailored to what each person needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Stephanye uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build resilience. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas, solution-focused work, and mindfulness alongside trauma-informed care to address symptoms and patterns. The methods are chosen to match a person's goals and situation.

In practical terms, she helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts, set achievable goals, and practice simple skills that change daily routines. She also supports people managing relationship strain, self-esteem concerns, and issues such as anger or addiction.

Her background in physical health gives her a particular interest in how the body and mind interact. That perspective can make it easier to notice patterns and try different coping strategies. Stephanye frames therapy as a team effort toward steady, meaningful change.

Approaches and how online work can fit your life

Stephanye commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas that help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT strategies often involve practicing new ways of thinking and small action steps to reduce anxiety, depression, or anger. She also uses solution-focused techniques that concentrate on strengths and immediate goals, helping clients identify what is already working and build from there.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can involve trying different methods and adjusting the focus as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue care during life transitions or while managing physical health concerns. A therapist and client together can decide how to structure sessions to best support progress.
