About Stephanie
Stephanie Crume is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. She supports parents navigating stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, and relationship stresses. She also helps people dealing with grief, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and career strain.
Stephanie values practical steps and clear goals when people are ready to make changes. Her approach treats each person as the expert on their own life. She listens for strengths and builds on them.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, doable changes that fit daily life rather than long lectures or jargon. Stephanie uses tools from acceptance and commitment work and cognitive behavioral methods to help manage thoughts and actions. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships affect feelings and behavior.
These methods are shaped to fit each person’s concerns and pace. In sessions she helps people set realistic goals, try new skills, and notice what gets in the way. She offers coaching-style supports for career and life transitions as well as help for parenting stress and family conflict.
The work often includes practice steps to try between meetings. Stephanie practices in Oklahoma and provides counseling in English. She welcomes people who want straightforward, goal-focused support and prefers a collaborative style that keeps the client’s values front and center.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most and take small actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior and practicing different responses to reduce distress and improve sleep, mood, or motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past and current relationships shape feelings and behavior, which can help with intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and family stress.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether to emphasize acceptance work, behavior change, attachment-focused exploration, or a mix of methods, and they revisit the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and deeper discussion. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Chat or messaging options work well for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or those who prefer typed communication. These formats give flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to keep consistent work on parenting and daily stressors.
