About Stephanie
Stephanie Traver is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 11 years of experience based in New York. She works with people facing trauma, attachment difficulties, mood disorders, and addiction concerns. She also supports parents who are managing the stresses of caregiving and blended family situations.
Her practice focuses on practical change. She uses reflection and conversation to identify thoughts and behaviors a person wants to change. Together she and the client set concrete goals and develop steps to manage external stresses and longer-term issues.
Stephanie draws on several therapy approaches to guide sessions, including cognitive behavioral methods, attachment-based ideas, and acceptance-oriented techniques. Sessions involve talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and trying out new ways of responding. She helps people build awareness so they can take workable steps forward.
Clients come with a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, anger, grief, and addictions like gambling. She also addresses related topics including communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, and attachment issues that affect daily life.
Her style is straightforward and focused on practical outcomes. She outlines plans, tracks progress, and adjusts strategies as needed. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck on them and choose actions that align with their values; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape reactions and trust; it can help with relationship difficulties, attachment issues, and caregiving stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete skills for shifting unhelpful patterns, useful for mood disorders, anxiety, and anger.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie treats this as a collaborative process. She and the client will review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together based on what helps most.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current online session options before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into daily life easier by removing travel and allowing appointments during a work break or between other responsibilities. It can also make shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations simpler when video is difficult. Licensed professionals adapt techniques like CBT exercises, ACT practices, and attachment-focused conversations to an online setting so the work can be practical and focused.
