About Stephanie
Stephanie Greene, LISW, uses a straightforward, practical style to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, eating concerns, and life transitions. She brings 20 years of clinical social work experience and a focus on real-life coping skills. Stephanie aims to help people move from crisis into steady daily routines they can maintain.
She draws on client-centered conversations that focus on what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and to build clearer habits.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness strategies are offered when emotions feel overwhelming and regulation skills are needed. Stephanie has long experience supporting people with eating-related issues, including binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, obesity, and care before and after weight loss surgery. She also helps with parenting stress, career questions, grief, addiction concerns, and managing mood conditions such as depression and bipolar challenges.
Many clients continue working with her to maintain healthy coping over time. Her background includes independent practice work since 2002, teaching as adjunct faculty, and serving as lead psychological editor for a column in a national surgical journal. This mix of clinical practice and academic work informs her practical approach.
In sessions she is personable and direct while keeping clear boundaries. She lays out straightforward steps, and then supports each person as they try those steps in everyday life. Progress depends on the client doing the day-to-day work, with the therapist as a steady guide.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's priorities and building a treatment plan around their own goals. In practice this means the therapist listens carefully, reflects concerns back, and helps the client decide what matters most to work on. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches simple ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and change routines that keep problems going. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns related to eating or attention. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for handling strong emotions, improving relationships, and staying steady during big mood swings or urges.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which strategies to try first. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most, so the client and therapist find the best fit together.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls let therapists and clients work face-to-face when a full session is needed. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is low or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to get ongoing support between appointments or to fit therapy into a workday. These options help people use consistent therapy in ways that fit their daily life.
