About Stephanie

Stephanie Greene is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in South Carolina with 20 years of clinical social work and psychotherapy experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, eating-related issues, life changes, and career concerns. Her practice also includes support for addictions, depression and bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, grief, and parenting stress.

She often helps people who struggle with codependency, attachment and abandonment worries, or family-of-origin problems. She has substantial experience with eating-related issues including binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, obesity, and supports people before and after weight-loss surgery. Many clients continue on for health maintenance work after the main issue has improved.

Stephanie uses a straightforward, conversational style while keeping clear boundaries. She describes therapy as collaborative work where the client does the substantive change and she provides guidance, skills, and honest feedback. Her background includes private practice since 2002, adjunct faculty teaching, and work as lead psychological editor for a national surgical journal.

In sessions she draws on common-sense strategies to build coping skills and increase self-awareness. That can mean practical behavior changes, learning new ways to handle relationships, and planning next steps for career or parenting concerns. She also integrates mindfulness and skills from cognitive and dialectical approaches when helpful.

People who want clear feedback and practical tools may find her approach useful. To start, readers should follow the site process to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them notice their own priorities and strengths. This approach tends to help people who feel unheard or unsure about what they want.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) highlights the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward exercises and behavioral experiments to test unhelpful thinking and build new routines. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, eating-related concerns, and compulsive patterns tied to codependency.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. It teaches short, usable strategies for staying regulated and communicating more clearly in tense moments.

Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, what has helped or not helped in the past, and which methods feel most practical. That conversation guides which techniques are emphasized over time.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it possible to continue with therapy while living in a different state or country, though logistics such as scheduling and fees should be reviewed during intake.
