About Stephanye
Stephanye Clagett is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with four years of counseling experience. She draws on a prior career in chiropractic care to notice how physical symptoms and emotional stress often connect. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, and anger among other concerns.
She focuses on finding the root of struggles and developing practical coping skills. Sessions emphasize clear steps and small changes that add up over time. Stephanye uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and works collaboratively with each person to set achievable goals.
Her background in healthcare shaped a practical, results-oriented style. That history makes it easier for her to talk about the links between the body and emotions, such as how pain, tension, or sleep problems can worsen mood and stress. She brings that perspective into conversations about emotion regulation and daily routines.
Stephanye describes her approach as collaborative and person-centered. She offers tools like thought restructuring, brief solution-focused planning, and mindfulness practices to help manage strong feelings and reduce reactivity. The focus is on building resilience and better habits rather than labels or diagnoses.
People who reach out often want clearer communication, fewer blowups, or a way to cope with long-standing patterns such as control issues, codependency, or substance use. She also supports those facing life changes, grief, parenting stresses, and career concerns. Sessions start with a clear plan and practical next steps to try between meetings.
How evidence-based techniques are used in remote sessions
Stephanye commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and brief Solution-Focused methods. CBT helps identify and reframe patterns of thinking that feed anger or anxiety, and it includes practical exercises to try between sessions. Solution-Focused work looks for small, doable changes and builds on what is already working in a person’s life.She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help notice and slow strong emotional reactions. Mindfulness can be short breathing or grounding exercises that interrupt automatic responses and lower reactivity during stressful moments.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and daily life. That means planning specific skills to practice between meetings and adjusting methods as progress is observed.
The biography does not list the exact online session formats offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people choose remote sessions because they can fit appointments into their day more easily, reduce travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online meetings also make it simpler to keep continuity during life transitions while still working on concrete skills for anger, stress, and relationship concerns.
