How Stephanie’s approaches translate to online therapy
Stephanie uses Client-Centered Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside cognitive behavioral techniques to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs, helping them feel heard and understood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, which can reduce avoidance and increase valued action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns.Picking the best approach is a collaborative process. Stephanie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that match those aims. Over a few sessions she will check what is helping and adjust the plan together so it fits day-to-day life.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and can reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed, and supports practicing mindfulness and CBT skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well over distance while keeping a focus on practical steps and clearer communication.
