Stephanie Griffin, LMHC

Stephanie Griffin is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 10 years of experience. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Her approach centers on listening closely and creating a calm space where people can speak openly without judgment.

She uses straightforward conversation to help clients clarify what they want to change. That can mean looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, naming painful memories, or exploring values and meaning. She combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify practical steps and small changes they can try between sessions.

For people affected by traumatic experiences, Stephanie also includes work that may involve Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. She helps clients process difficult memories at a pace they can handle and reduces overwhelming reactions over time. Existential ideas may be added when people want to examine purpose, choice, and what matters most to them.

Her practice also addresses relationship concerns like communication problems, commitment worries, and blended family stress. She supports individuals dealing with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver strain, and the emotional fallout of divorce or domestic violence.

Stephanie aims to collaborate with each person on clear goals and realistic steps. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Fees vary by location and a subscription that can be canceled at any time is used for sessions.

How Stephanie’s approaches work for online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client leads the conversation and decides what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a listening ear and support to clarify feelings and goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It breaks problems into concrete parts and gives practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can be useful for anxiety and depression.

EMDR is also part of Stephanie's toolbox for trauma work. It involves processing difficult memories in a structured way to reduce their emotional intensity and help people feel less overwhelmed by past events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that match the client's needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients are encouraged to ask questions and give feedback so work stays useful and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people meet from wherever is most convenient. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques used in person to web or phone work, and sessions can focus on practical strategies, processing trauma, or reflecting on life choices depending on what the client wants.
