About Stephanie
Stephanie Crume is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBTQ+ related issues, and family conflict. She also supports clients dealing with trauma, grief, depression, and challenges like sleep problems and low self-esteem.
Stephanie treats each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps that can be used outside of therapy. Conversations are straightforward and goal-oriented, with attention to what feels doable for everyday life.
Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and adjust behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clear values and actions even with uncomfortable feelings. Attachment-based ideas look at relationship patterns that affect current stress and connections.
She has worked across a range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and blended family stress, caregiver strain, and chronic illness. Stephanie also addresses ADHD, bipolar disorder, and co-occurring problems like substance use alongside mood or anxiety symptoms.
Clients can expect a mix of skills practice, thoughtful conversation, and problem-solving relevant to their daily routines. The emphasis is on small, measurable steps that match a person's goals. To begin, clients are asked to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to clarify priorities and next steps.
Approaches used in online sessions and what to expect
Stephanie often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments, which can help with social anxiety and avoidance. ACT emphasizes clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions in line with those values even when anxiety shows up.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will listen to concerns, try a few methods, and together with the client work out what fits best for ongoing sessions and goals. Adjustments are made as progress and needs become clearer.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let clients practice skills in the environments where their challenges happen. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so sessions match your routine and practical needs.
