About Stephenie
Stephenie Connelly is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, anger, and parenting concerns. She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
Her approach centers on creating an open space where people can share thoughts and feelings without judgment. She listens closely and adapts conversations to each person's pace. That often means naming small, practical steps to try between sessions.
Background and approach
Stephenie uses client-centered methods to help people feel heard and understood. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behavior patterns. For experiences tied to trauma, she applies trauma-focused techniques to address upsetting memories and their effects on daily life.
She commonly helps with parenting stress, caregiver strain, grief, and relationship or communication problems. Stephenie also supports people dealing with ADHD-related challenges, self-esteem issues, social anxiety, and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to be direct, empathic, and goal-oriented.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Stephenie follows a straightforward sign-up process so people can match with her and begin scheduling sessions according to availability.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Stephenie uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person's experience. This approach means sessions begin with careful listening and follow the client's priorities, which can help with parenting stress, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions this often involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings to build new habits and reduce anxiety.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Stephenie will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods based on what is working. Clients help shape the plan so therapy fits their life and needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be quieter and use less bandwidth. Live chat or text sessions work well for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around parenting duties, work, and daily life.
