About Stephanie
Stephanie Greene uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people navigate stress and life changes. She draws on 20 years of clinical social work experience to guide conversations and build workable coping strategies. Stephanie is an LISW - Licensed Independent Social Worker - based in South Carolina and offers support in plain language and steady, direct feedback.
Her work often centers on anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and addiction. She also helps with relationship struggles, parenting concerns, career decisions, grief, and issues around eating and body image.
How Stephanie works
Many people come for focused help and then continue sessions to maintain healthy habits and prevent relapse. Stephanie combines client-centered listening with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into sessions when they fit a person's goals.
Sessions typically focus on clear steps the client can try between meetings and on building stronger daily routines. Stephanie developed her independent practice in 2002 and has two decades of clinical work. Her background includes editorial work for a national surgical journal and teaching as adjunct faculty at the college level.
That mix of clinical and teaching work shaped her straightforward, educational style. In sessions she keeps boundaries while remaining personable. She expects clients to do the active work outside sessions and offers guidance, accountability, and tools to make change more manageable.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Online support options
Approach-focused online therapy that fits your life
Stephanie often uses client-centered therapy, which means sessions begin with listening to your concerns and shaping goals around what matters to you. This approach helps when someone needs support sorting priorities, improving communication, or building self-awareness.She also brings cognitive behavioral therapy to online sessions to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test clearer alternatives. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, eating-related issues, and practical behavior changes. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are added when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are central problems, offering steady tools for intense moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. Together they set goals and try methods, then adjust what isn’t working.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These options make scheduling easier across different time zones and routines.
