About Stephanie
Stephanie Faison is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 20 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family issues, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Stephanie also works with people facing abandonment, caregiver strain, midlife questions, and questions about life purpose.
She uses practical, talk-based work to help people notice patterns that get in the way. Stephanie draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness practices to help clients try new ways of responding to difficult thoughts and emotions. Sessions are straightforward and action oriented when that fits the person's goals.
In conversations she listens for what matters most to each person and what small, realistic steps could move them forward. She helps people test changes between sessions and then checks what worked and what did not. This keeps progress concrete and manageable.
Her background includes two decades working with adults on life transitions and day-to-day stresses. Stephanie is familiar with concerns such as social anxiety, seasonal affective disorder, codependency, and issues tied to aging. She works in English and practices in North Carolina.

How ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness inform online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that align with what matters. It helps when someone feels stuck because it separates getting rid of thoughts from doing meaningful things. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, social worries, and low self-esteem. Mindfulness Therapy trains present-moment awareness through short practices and attention exercises to reduce reactivity and increase calm.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. Decisions about pacing and techniques are made together so the plan fits what the person wants to address.
The exact session formats available should be confirmed before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or between other commitments. Online work also makes it easy to practice skills between meetings and to discuss how exercises are going in real time. If specific formats matter to you, check the current session options during the matching and scheduling steps.
