About Stephanie
Stephanie Dixon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience. She speaks plainly and listens closely to help people sort through stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and relationship concerns. She works with many who face trauma, grief, addictions, and questions about identity and self-worth.
Stephanie prefers a warm, relational style in sessions. She invites clients to guide the conversation and gives direct feedback when it will help.
How Stephanie works
Her work blends practical tools with a focus on building healthier connections and coping skills. She draws on several approaches depending on need. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about trust, closeness, and how early relationships shape reactions today. Trauma-focused techniques are used with people processing abuse, assault, or post-traumatic stress. Clients can expect an active partnership.
Stephanie asks for feedback and adjusts her pace and focus based on what feels useful. She helps people set small goals and practices to try between sessions. Her background includes long experience across mood disorders, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, domestic violence, hoarding, and sexual assault and abuse.
Stephanie works from Missouri and provides services in English. She does not take international clients.

Online support options
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of closeness and trust developed over time and how they affect current relationships; it can help people who struggle with connection, attachment issues, or caregiver stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, low mood, and problematic behaviors. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic events and reducing symptoms tied to post-traumatic stress and abuse.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, history, and what feels most comfortable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on progress and client feedback.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation without travel time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, real-time support, or when typing is easier than talking. These options make scheduling more flexible and can help therapy fit into busy lives.
