About Stephanie
Stephanie Miller-Olsen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She has ten years of experience supporting people who face stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Her approach is practical and focused on helping clients take small, usable steps toward feeling better.

Background and approach
Stephanie often helps with specific concerns such as panic attacks, phobias, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and sleep problems. She also supports people dealing with relationship pain, codependency, grief, and the ups and downs of mood disorders. Sessions aim to identify clear goals and build tools that fit daily life.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She offers talk, skills practice, and real-world homework when it suits the client. Stephanie provides sessions by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
Clients who choose Stephanie start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time and costs vary by location and availability.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and guides sessions around what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, phobias, and mood struggles.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. Those skills can be practiced between sessions and brought back to talk about what worked and what did not. Stephanie will work collaboratively to find which combination of approaches fits a person’s needs, goals, and day-to-day life rather than prescribing one method up front.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skills demonstrations. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins and work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts between meetings and keep momentum on homework or coping skills. These options offer flexibility so people can try different ways of meeting and adapt as their needs change.
