About Stephanie
Stephanie Agosh is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in New York with 11 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She also supports concerns such as grief, anger, career questions, bipolar mood issues, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Stephanie uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She listens to what is happening now, then works with each person to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Conversations focus on small, doable steps clients can try between meetings. Sessions are conversational and focused on problem solving rather than long theory talks.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related methods to address thinking patterns and behavior. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and tolerate hard feelings, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and client-centered ways of talking are woven in when they fit the person’s needs.
Stephanie aims to help people build skills for managing strong emotions and making practical changes. She pays attention to both mood and daily routines, such as sleep, work life, and coping strategies. Treatment plans are adjusted as progress is seen or goals change.
People who start with her complete a short intake and set concrete goals for early sessions. The work tends to be structured and action-oriented, with an emphasis on learning specific tools to use in everyday life.
How CBT and related approaches work in remote sessions
Stephanie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new responses. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so people can try small experiments and track what changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and accept difficult emotions while still taking action that matters. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships influence current patterns and helps people recognize and change those patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options and decide together which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes reviewing what has or hasn't helped in the past and adjusting the plan as needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when that helps, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote sessions useful for practicing skills in real-life settings and for keeping regular appointments around work or family commitments.
