About Stephanie
Stephanie Greene is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 20 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, hands-on work that helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, eating concerns, and life transitions. Her approach is direct and personable, with attention to clear boundaries and realistic goals.
She often helps people move from crisis to maintenance, teaching skills that keep improvements in place over time. Many clients shift their focus to sustaining healthy coping once immediate problems ease. Stephanie encourages clients to take an active role in their progress while she provides guidance and structure.
Her background includes long private-practice experience and roles as a psychological editor for a national surgical journal. She has taught as adjunct faculty at the college level and has remained connected to professional organizations throughout her career. This mix of roles informs her practical view of therapy.
Stephanie uses several evidence-based methods that emphasize client goals and present-focused change. She draws on Client-Centered therapy to build collaboration, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation when needed. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing are also part of her toolbox.
Stephanie practices in South Carolina and offers sessions in English. She has particular experience supporting people with eating-related issues including pre- and post-operative bariatric care, and works with concerns such as grief, parenting stress, career questions, ADHD, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

Approach and online therapy that fit your needs
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship where the client sets goals and the therapist follows their lead. This approach helps when people need support making choices, clarifying values, or rebuilding confidence after a major life change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and eating-related struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills add techniques for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance when needed.
Choosing the right method is part of the work together. Stephanie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past, and then shape an approach that fits. That planning is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking since the therapist's profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand quick support. They also let people continue care from different locations, which can be helpful for those who travel or live outside the therapist's region.
