She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Stephanie uses a straightforward approach that centers on the client's experience and strengths.
She sees clients as the expert on their own lives and focuses on practical steps that help reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. Sessions include listening, asking clarifying questions, and introducing strategies from several evidence-based approaches. Stephanie often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and strong emotions, and she combines that with cognitive and behavioral tools when helpful.
Her background spans a decade of work with adults facing mood disorders, panic, post-traumatic stress, and difficulties tied to relationship patterns and abandonment concerns. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain, illness, impulsivity, and loneliness. The work tends to emphasize recognizing patterns, naming emotions, and trying out healthier responses.
In sessions she may draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take committed actions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Stephanie frequently uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help identify and name strong emotions and attachment patterns that shape relationships and personal reactions. EFT focuses on feeling and connection when emotions are hard to name, which can be useful for relationship patterns and attachment concerns.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and moving toward meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and practice different ways of responding to mood and anxiety symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean leaning into EFT for attachment work or using CBT or ACT tools for symptom management.
