Stephanie Horner

Stephanie Horner, LPCC, focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person. Parents worried about behavior or sleep, and adults facing anxiety, grief, or big life changes will find straightforward support and practical steps here.

Stephanie spent 10 years in nursing and 25 years in counseling and therapy, giving her a wide view of health and emotional care. That mix of hands-on medical experience and long-term counseling work informs how she notices both practical needs and emotional patterns. She now works primarily with adults and draws on her history supporting children, adolescents, and parents when it helps the work.

Her approach mixes mindfulness techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral tools, and client-centered listening. Sessions focus on identifying the key problems, clarifying what the person wants, and practicing skills that can be used after sessions end. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas also appear when helpful.

Stephanie aims to be warm, gently direct, and occasionally lighthearted while staying focused on concrete change. She helps people build coping skills for anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and ADHD-related difficulties. Parenting concerns, relationship strain, career stress, and grief are also part of her practice.

The goal is practical growth: learn skills, try new behaviors, and adjust plans as life shifts. Stephanie guides people through this step-by-step process so they can carry tools forward after counseling ends.

How Mindfulness and Practical Therapies Work Online

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgment. It often includes simple attention exercises and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support clearer thinking, which can help with anxiety, sleep, and stress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and committing to small actions that align with those values. It pairs well with mindfulness and is useful for handling avoidance, low mood, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking. This approach is helpful for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving in everyday situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and preferences. She mixes approaches as needed and adjusts methods based on what helps in real life.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or a choice to use audio if video is difficult. Because the original profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know what is available.
