How her approaches translate to online therapy

Stephanie often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them, which can help when major life changes feel overwhelming. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers practical steps to shift unhelpful habits, useful for anxiety and depression.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Stephanie will listen to what matters to the client, discuss options, and adjust methods based on goals and preferences. Together they decide which practices to try and how to fit them into daily life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Sessions can focus on skill-building, values-based planning, and mindfulness exercises that translate well to remote work. Ask about session length and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine.
