About Stephanie
Stephanie Griffin is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who uses cognitive behavioral therapy alongside client-centered and existential techniques to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, self-esteem concerns, and depression.
Background and approach
With a decade of professional experience, she emphasizes practical strategies that address thinking patterns and behaviors while also honoring each person’s values and personal meaning. Her training in EMDR and familiarity with relational methods like the Gottman approach inform her work with trauma-related symptoms and interpersonal difficulties.
She aims to create an accepting, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions and make concrete changes at a manageable pace. Stephanie brings attention to both immediate coping skills and longer-term growth, tailoring sessions to areas such as attachment challenges, communication problems, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care issues, and responses to loss or crisis.
People seeking a collaborative therapist who combines evidence-informed techniques with empathic listening may find her approach well suited to their goals.
Integrating evidence-based approaches into online care
Stephanie often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and is useful when someone wants concrete tools to change daily reactions and reduce distress.She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize empathic listening and the client’s own goals, creating space for people to explore values and meaning at their own pace. For trauma-related symptoms, Stephanie incorporates EMDR methods intended to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity when appropriate.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process; she works with clients to determine which techniques best align with their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods over time based on progress and feedback. This teamwork helps tailor treatment to each person’s circumstances.
Online therapy here is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allows flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or travel, and they support steady progress through regular contact and accessible session types.
