About Stephanie
Stephanie Krawec is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, or big life changes. She speaks plainly and offers steady, practical support when daily demands start to feel crushing or familiar routines no longer fit. Stephanie places a clear, encouraging presence at the center of work with each person.
She uses straightforward conversation to sort out what matters most and to set small, reachable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on coping skills, managing mood swings, and reducing harmful use of substances when that is a concern. Stephanie also helps people struggling with attention differences, relationship difficulties, trauma, or identity concerns within the LGBT community. Stephanie has practiced social work for 10 years and holds both LCSW and LISW credentials.
She is licensed in Kentucky and also holds an Ohio LISW credential. Her background includes supporting people through midlife shifts, young adult transitions, and work-related burnout. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's priorities and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to build practical skills. Motivational Interviewing is used to strengthen commitment to change when substance use or ambivalence shows up. In sessions clients can expect a mix of problem-focused planning and space to process emotions.
Stephanie helps people translate insight into doable steps, whether that looks like managing panic, addressing infidelity, or coping with compassion fatigue. The focus is on real-life improvements that fit each person’s situation.
Therapeutic approaches for online support
Stephanie commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping each person identify their own goals and values. This approach is useful when someone needs validation and a steady place to think through decisions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps when worries, panic, or low mood get in the way of daily life by teaching concrete skills to change patterns and responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will discuss options and together decide which methods match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made, so plans can change if something else fits better.
Online therapy here is offered in several formats to fit different routines and comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer short, flexible exchanges useful for tracking goals, sharing updates, or getting support between longer sessions.
These options make it easier to use therapy around work, school, or caregiving demands while keeping the focus on practical steps and real-life change.
