About Stephanie
Stephanie Greene is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in South Carolina with 20 years of psychotherapy and clinical social work experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, eating-related concerns, and life transitions. She also supports those dealing with grief, career questions, addiction, and attention concerns.
Stephanie’s background includes private practice since 2002 and roles as a psychological editor for a national surgical journal. She has taught as adjunct faculty at the college level and held memberships in multiple professional organizations. This mix of clinical and academic work shapes her practical focus.
In sessions she uses straightforward, person-centered methods and evidence-informed tools. Clients can expect a mix of listening, problem-solving, and skill-building aimed at reducing distress and improving day-to-day coping. She names clear boundaries and direct feedback as part of how she works.
She has particular experience with eating and food-related issues, including binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, obesity, and support around bariatric surgery before and after procedures. Many clients continue longer term for health maintenance to preserve skills they’ve learned.
Stephanie emphasizes collaboration: she describes the therapist’s role as guiding and offering tools while the client does the substantive work. That approach is applied across relationship concerns, family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment themes, and practical life planning.
Sessions focus on building coping skills, improving communication, and strengthening self-awareness. Stephanie uses methods such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to address present problems and sustain healthy habits.
How Stephanie uses evidence-informed approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says so they can recognize their own solutions; it is useful when someone needs understanding and clearer personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going; it is often used for anxiety, mood, and eating-related issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes teaching concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can help with stress, impulsive behaviors, and strong emotions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Stephanie will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She combines listening with skill teaching and encourages client participation in choosing what to practice between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins between work tasks, video if you prefer face-to-face contact, or phone if bandwidth is limited. These practical choices help people keep therapy consistent while managing everyday responsibilities.
