About Stephanie

Stephanie Borgono is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 19 years of clinical experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She also focuses on related concerns such as body image, communication problems, impulsivity, and family problems.

Stephanie keeps sessions practical and straightforward. She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to spot thinking patterns that make anxiety worse. She brings mindfulness techniques to help people notice responses in the moment. She also uses solution-focused tools to set concrete short-term goals.

In a session she helps people break big problems into small steps. She practices clear communication work, like improving how someone talks about needs or boundaries. She can help with managing emotions during life transitions such as divorce or separation, and with issues linked to identity or neurodiversity.

Stephanie has nearly two decades of experience working with adults across a range of concerns. She aims to help people build practical coping skills, reduce avoidant patterns, and improve day-to-day functioning. She works in English and is based in New Jersey.

How her approaches translate to online work

Stephanie commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy when working with anxiety and mood concerns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that contribute to distress, which can help with social anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices so people can notice their reactions and practice responding differently.

She also uses solution-focused therapy to set clear, small goals and track progress week to week. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process - she works with the person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and what feels workable in everyday life.

Session-format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals adapt tools like CBT worksheets and mindfulness exercises to work well over video or audio, helping people practice skills between appointments.
