About Stephen
Stephen Wallace is an Ohio LPCC with 16 years of clinical experience who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and anger. He frames his work with attention to emotional, relational, and spiritual concerns and aims to help people manage strong feelings and life changes.
He uses practical conversation and reflective listening to help people name what’s happening and make small, sustainable changes. Sessions focus on understanding thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and on developing clearer ways to respond when emotions run high. He blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness skills.
Stephen also draws on existential ideas about meaning and values. That can help when someone feels stuck, empty, or unsure about next steps. Motivational interviewing is used when change feels hard or when someone is uncertain about making different choices.
He mentions a Christian perspective as part of his framework for many clients, and he respects how faith or belief matters in people’s lives. He helps people consider spiritual questions alongside emotional and practical concerns without imposing beliefs.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. Expect clear feedback, strategies to try between meetings, and time to reflect on what matters. To get started, the profile advises using the site’s matching flow to schedule an initial session and begin setting practical goals.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy starts by listening closely to what matters to the person and following their priorities. Online sessions using this approach focus on clear questions, reflective feedback, and building practical steps that fit daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In an online setting this often looks like brief skills teaching, homework between sessions, and checking progress week to week.
Mindfulness practices are taught in small, practical ways to reduce reactivity and improve emotion awareness. These exercises can be short and repeated between sessions to build steadier responses to anger and stress.
Choosing the right combination of methods is part of the first work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which approaches best match goals, needs, and preferences. That includes reviewing what has helped in the past and what feels realistic to try now.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when helpful, and allow tools and exercises to be shared between meetings to support steady progress.
