About Stephanie

Stephanie Hrit practices from a client-centered approach that keeps the person at the heart of care. She is a licensed clinical social worker - LCSW - and uses clear, practical methods to help with stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She focuses on listening first, then building a plan that fits each person's needs.

Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Stephanie adapts language and pacing so conversations feel manageable even when topics are hard to talk about.

Background and approach

Her work combines evidence-based tools like cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and emotion regulation skills from dialectical behavior approaches. That mix aims to reduce overwhelming feelings, reshape unhelpful thinking, and teach steadying coping strategies.

Over six years of practice, Stephanie has supported people dealing with relationship strain, body image concerns, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and the aftermath of abuse or traumatic events. She also helps those facing feelings of emptiness, commitment worries, codependency, and trouble with communication or control. Sessions may include practical exercises, short skills practice, and collaborative goal-setting.

The tone is respectful and down-to-earth, with a focus on small, doable steps toward feeling better. Stephanie works from North Carolina and conducts work in English.

Online support

Using practical therapies online to build coping skills

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities, so sessions start with what matters most to the individual and move at their pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to help manage intense feelings and improve communication.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to try methods and see what fits best based on goals, needs, and preferences. Plans adjust over time so techniques that help most get more emphasis.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people work face-to-face when a longer discussion or skill demonstration is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins, progress notes, or step-by-step coaching possible between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy schedules.
