About Stephanie

Stephanie Miller-Olsen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 10 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and related concerns. Stephanie also addresses addiction, parenting challenges, sleep problems, career stress, ADHD, and relationship issues.

Stephanie uses straightforward, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and mindfulness-based approaches. Sessions emphasize concrete skills such as coping strategies, thought records, and behavior changes that can be applied between meetings.

Her background includes work with adults on mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic attacks, dissociation, and post-traumatic stress. She has experience addressing codependency, commitment issues, domestic violence effects, guilt and shame, and self-harm concerns. Stephanie aims to help people identify small steps that reduce distress and restore daily functioning.

In sessions she offers practical tools from DBT skills and emotion-focused techniques when helpful, plus motivational interviewing to support behavior change. The process typically involves setting clear goals, tracking progress, and practicing new responses to old problems. She asks clients to try techniques between sessions and then review what worked.

Stephanie works in English and practices in New York. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling options to make sure they fit with your needs.

How Stephanie’s approaches translate to online work

Stephanie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and build specific behavior changes. CBT sessions focus on practical steps such as tracking moods, testing new responses, and short exercises to practice between meetings.

She also incorporates client-centered methods that emphasize the person's perspective and goals, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-centered work helps clarify what matters most, while DBT skills provide concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. Together they set goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
