About Steven
Steven Liscum is a North Carolina licensed clinical mental health counselor with 10 years of experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. He also supports those dealing with relationship tensions, family conflict, and motivation struggles.
He focuses on practical conversation and steady support. Sessions are meant to be a place where clients can say what they are feeling and thinking without judgment. He aims to help people notice what patterns are getting in the way and try clearer ways of relating and coping.
How Steven works
He often works on communication problems and social anxiety that make everyday interactions harder. He also helps people manage body image concerns, isolation and loneliness, and the aftermath of traumatic experiences. The work can include building small, achievable goals and practicing different responses to stressful moments.
Steven emphasizes collaboration. He partners with clients to set goals and checks in about what is or isn’t working. Progress is paced to each person’s needs, with adjustments made when life changes or new challenges appear.
Sessions may mix short-term problem solving with longer-term skill building. The aim is to reduce immediate distress while developing tools that help people handle future stress and relationship challenges.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online work
Steven uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and skill building. One common approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different ways of thinking and responding to anxiety and low mood; this can help with everyday anxiety, social fear, and depression. Another approach centers on improving communication and problem-solving within relationships and family interactions, which is useful for addressing conflict and building clearer exchanges.Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to emphasize as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief updates, written reflection, and ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or family commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
