About Stephanie
Stephanie Fredericka is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with over 10 years of experience. She sees people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and related concerns. Her background includes work with individuals facing mood disorders, relationship and family stress, grief, and struggles with sleep and eating.
Her sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas alongside solution-focused and psychodynamic thinking to help people understand patterns and try new ways of coping. That means talking through what happens day to day, testing small changes, and reflecting on past experiences that shape current responses.
Stephanie often helps clients manage everyday pressures like work and parenting demands, relationship strain, and burnout. She also supports people navigating major life changes and losses. Conversations tend to be straightforward and aimed at finding what helps in ordinary life.
She pays attention to strengths people already have and builds on those skills. Sessions may include setting short-term goals, practicing coping skills, and reviewing what worked between meetings. The emphasis is on usable tools rather than jargon.
Stephanie has experience supporting people affected by the recent collective stresses of the pandemic. She combines several approaches to match each person’s needs and preferences. To begin, clients complete a brief questionnaire and then schedule a first session to set goals and expectations.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Stephanie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to practice small, concrete changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. That approach focuses on real-life tasks and homework that can be tracked between sessions.She also draws on solution-focused therapy to set brief, measurable goals and build on what already works. This helps with single-issue concerns or practical changes such as sleep routines or coping plans. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice recurring patterns and to understand how past experiences influence present behavior, which can help with longer-standing relationship and self-esteem issues.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That conversation happens early and can be revisited as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions also make it easier to keep continuity during life transitions or periods of increased stress.
