About Stephanie

Stephanie Griffin is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings ten years of clinical experience to each session and centers care on the person in front of her. Her approach starts with listening.

She aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about hard feelings and difficult memories. This simple foundation helps people feel understood and decide what they want to work on next.

Background and approach

Stephanie uses a mix of methods to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered work to follow the client's lead and on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also incorporates EMDR when addressing trauma-related symptoms and distressing memories.

Practical skills and clear goals are part of the process. Sessions often include strategies for coping with overwhelming emotions, building healthier thought patterns, and improving day-to-day functioning. The therapist helps people practice new skills between meetings so progress carries into real life.

Stephanie is comfortable helping with a wide range of related concerns, including attachment struggles, caregiver stress, relationship communication problems, and the emotional effects of divorce or loss. She speaks English and works with adults from her Florida practice. Her style is supportive and collaborative.

She encourages small steps, validates hard experiences, and works with each client to find what feels most helpful in their life.

Online support

Blending therapeutic approaches for online care

Stephanie commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead to explore feelings and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change behaviors and improve mood. She also draws on EMDR to address trauma-related memories when appropriate and agreed upon by the client.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels useful. Clients and the therapist work together to find the best fit for symptoms, life demands, and personal preferences.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people read facial cues and use interactive tools, while phone sessions can be handy when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins and flexible, text-based work between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, or travel schedules and let people choose how they prefer to communicate.
