About Stephanye
Stephanye Clagett is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with four years of counseling experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship problems, and she also lists social anxiety and phobia among her concerns.
She came to counseling after more than a decade working as a chiropractor. That background shaped her view that physical pain and emotional distress often interact. That observation is one reason she moved into mental health work and now focuses on emotional and relational difficulties.
Stephanye works with adults, teens, and couples on worries such as panic, low self-esteem, grief, life transitions, and substance concerns. She uses approaches described in her biography, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused methods, along with mindfulness and trauma-informed practices. In sessions she aims to identify what keeps problems going and to teach practical coping skills.
Sessions tend to focus on clear, achievable steps people can try between meetings. She helps clients break problems into manageable parts and track small changes over time. This practical focus is meant to build skills for handling day-to-day stressors and relationship conflicts.
People who prefer direct, collaborative work may find this a good fit. The biography notes work with ADHD, compassion fatigue, and a range of intimacy and family-related concerns, so those specific topics can be discussed early in treatment. To confirm current session options, readers should check available online therapy choices before booking.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Stephanye lists several evidence-based techniques in her biography. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical steps and on building what already works; it can be useful for short-term goals like managing stress or improving communication. Mindfulness practices teach simple skills to notice thoughts and bodily sensations so they are less overwhelming in stressful moments. Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as needs change. The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. Phone sessions can require less bandwidth and may be easier when a short check-in is preferred, while video sessions let a therapist and client work face-to-face when that helps communication. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routines and practical needs before scheduling.Areas of expertise
