About Stephanie
Stephanie Holder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, addiction issues, and attention difficulties such as ADHD. Sessions are practical and focused on concrete steps toward coping with everyday pressures.
Stephanie draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that worsen mood or anxiety. Mindfulness and Solution-Focused techniques are used for quick coping tools and to set small, achievable goals.
Her work includes supporting people coping with trauma and adverse childhood experiences, along with issues tied to adoption, attachment, and blended family dynamics. She also addresses caregiver stress, first responder issues, and problems that come with major life transitions like divorce, midlife change, or end-of-life planning.
In sessions she talks through concrete problems - for example communication problems, commitment questions, or managing anger. She helps clients build skills for managing guilt, shame, and compassion fatigue. Conversation stays practical: identify a problem, try a change, and review what helped.
Stephanie practices in California and runs sessions in English. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, follow the online matching steps and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How Stephanie’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and clarifying what matters to the client. In practice this means sessions focus on what the person identifies as the main problem, and the therapist reflects and helps prioritize next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that sustain anxiety or depression, then tests small changes to see what helps. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and relaxation practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Stephanie will collaborate with each person to decide whether to try CBT-focused exercises, mindfulness practices, or short solution-focused goals. She checks progress and adjusts methods based on the client’s needs and preferences.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a work break, fewer travel minutes, or using audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Therapists often adapt worksheets, brief behavioral experiments, and mindfulness practices to remote sessions so clients can practice between meetings.
