About Stephanie

Stephanie Greene is a licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 20 years of clinical practice helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, eating-related concerns, mood disorders, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She blends attention to inner parts and patterns with practical skills to support clients through grief, career shifts, parenting dilemmas, addiction-related struggles, and self-esteem work. Her background includes long-term independent practice, teaching at the college level, and editorial work for a national surgical journal, which informs a pragmatic and informed approach to care.

In sessions she emphasizes self-awareness and skill maintenance so that early gains evolve into lasting coping strategies. Stephanie describes her style as personable and straightforward while upholding professional boundaries, and many clients continue working with her for ongoing health maintenance after primary concerns improve.

She sees individuals, couples, and families and draws on multiple evidence-based methods to tailor work to each person's needs and goals.

Integrating Parts Work and Skills-Based Therapy Online



Internal Family Systems (IFS) emphasizes identifying and relating to the many internal parts that influence emotions and behavior, helping clients develop a compassionate, curious relationship with those parts to reduce internal conflict and improve self-leadership. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with practical strategies to manage mood, anxiety, and other symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that support emotion regulation and reduce reactivity in daily life.

Finding the most helpful therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most effective in early sessions, adapting interventions as understanding grows so clients can build lasting coping skills while addressing core patterns.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing work to continue across busy schedules and geographic distances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support when life circumstances make in-person visits difficult.
