Approaches Used in Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, invites clients to clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters most. It helps people who struggle with avoidance, anxiety, or feeling stuck to build psychological flexibility and pursue a meaningful life.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead. This approach supports people working through self-esteem concerns, identity questions, and interpersonal difficulties by fostering acceptance and self-discovery.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and skills-based, often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and workplace or social challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Stephanie works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they tailor the work so that therapy feels relevant and doable.

Online therapy with her can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
