About Stephenie
Stephenie Connelly is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Oklahoma with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, parenting concerns, and struggles with self-esteem. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day to manage reactions and handle tense moments more effectively.
She helps people who are dealing with grief, depression, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. Stephenie also supports those coping with ADHD, relationship and family concerns, and social anxiety. Her work includes attention to caregiver stress, communication problems, post-traumatic stress, and building self-love.
Her style is client-centered. That means conversations begin with what matters to the person in front of her. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and then looks for small, practical changes that can reduce tension and prevent arguments.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Trauma-focused methods are applied when past events are interfering with current reactions. Together these approaches aim to reduce intense emotions and improve daily functioning.
People can expect straightforward talk and concrete tools. Sessions include checking what’s working, practicing new skills, and adjusting the plan as needed. To begin, the site process asks for a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy starts by focusing on the person's immediate concerns and priorities. In practice this means the therapist follows your lead, reflects what you say, and helps you set goals that matter to you. It is useful for anger that comes from everyday stress and relationship friction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions often include short skill practice, experiments between sessions, and clearer ways to respond when frustration rises. This approach can help with workplace irritation and repeated angry reactions.
Trauma-focused therapy addresses the ways past experiences affect current responses. When trauma is present, sessions work on understanding triggers and building safer ways to respond to strong emotions. That can reduce sudden or ongoing anger connected to past events.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted based on what helps and what feels manageable for you.
