About Stephanie
In sessions she keeps things straightforward and practical. She focuses on building a trusting relationship first, then helps people talk through immediate concerns and figure out small, doable steps. Her background includes work with high-risk youth, foster care and bonding issues, crisis response, and domestic violence contexts. Stephanie brings real-world experience from community service roles alongside her counseling work.
Her approach draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral techniques. She also uses mindfulness strategies and motivational interviewing to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and find motivation to change. Therapy often combines talking, skill practice, and simple homework people can use between sessions.
Stephanie holds an LPC in Wyoming and Colorado. She often integrates her love of animals into care and may involve therapy animals in her private practice setting. She values clear, honest communication and aims to make the therapy process manageable for people juggling busy lives.
People who want to begin can expect a collaborative process that focuses on practical coping, clearer communication, and steady steps toward the goals they set together.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on helping people process difficult events and reduce the ongoing impact of past trauma. It typically involves careful pacing, grounding techniques, and strategies to manage distress when memories or triggers arise. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying practical experiments to change patterns that contribute to anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and needs and collaborate with you to decide which methods fit best. That may mean trying a mix of Trauma-Focused methods, CBT exercises, and client-centered listening until you find what helps.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how this therapist runs online work. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also let people connect from a place that feels comfortable while still focusing on practical skills, mindfulness exercises, and step-by-step coping strategies that translate into everyday life.
