About Stephanie

Stephanie Borgono is a licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience based in New Jersey. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, ADHD, and the emotional fallout from divorce and separation. Her style is warm and straightforward, focused on practical steps people can use day to day.

She blends talk therapy with concrete tools people can try between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and change unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness techniques help slow down racing thoughts. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set small, realistic goals and measure progress.

Sessions emphasize communication skills, self-care, and coping strategies for life changes. She often works with people facing relationship shifts, the end of partnerships, or major life transitions. Stephanie supports clients who want clearer boundaries, better emotion regulation, and more consistent routines.

Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. People can expect straightforward feedback, practical homework, and a focus on strengths. The aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to handle daily demands.

Stephanie holds a New Jersey LCSW, which means she practices as a licensed clinical social worker in the state. She conducts sessions in English and does not take international clients. To begin, follow the site’s matching and scheduling steps to connect and arrange an appointment.

How cognitive, mindful, and solution-focused approaches help online

Stephanie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, and it often helps with anxiety, low mood, and ADHD-related thinking patterns.

She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach skills for calming the body and stepping back from intense emotions. Mindfulness can make stressful moments feel more manageable and improve focus over time.

Solution-Focused Therapy rounds out the work by breaking bigger problems into small, achievable steps. This approach is useful for navigating life changes and tracking progress week to week.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use tools from home between sessions. Ask about scheduling and format when you complete the matching questionnaire to ensure sessions match your routine.
