Stephanie was very supportive during a major transition in my relationship. She helped me to work through a number of issues and gave me tools to help move forward. After a couple of negative experiences with other counsellors, Stephanie really helped me to see the value in therapy.

More about Stephanie

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in Alabama with over sixteen years of experience working as a counselor for a wide range of concerns. I have worked with individuals and families dealing with anxiety, child related specific issues, relationship issues, couple issues, parenting problems, trauma and many other issues. I always approach every individual and situation from a trauma informed lens when counseling.

My counseling style is warm and engaging. I believe it is important to treat everyone with respect. One of the main ways I show respect is by really listening to hear your story. I also use a strength-based approach utilizing the individual’s strengths to overcome the challenges they may face. The main counseling approach I use is a cognitive-behavioral therapy counseling approach. I incorporate many other styles based on the client's needs.

Thank you for taking the step toward health and healing through counseling. It isn’t easy to begin this journey, but you have taken the brave first step that will bring positive change in your life. I look forward to working to support you on this journey.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
