About Stephenie

Stephenie Connelly is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Oklahoma with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and caregiver fatigue, and also works with concerns like parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and social anxiety.

Background and approach

Her practice also addresses relationship and family dynamics, communication problems, and issues related to LGBT identity and life transitions. Her approach centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

Stephenie uses evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused techniques while maintaining a client-centered stance that prioritizes each person’s values and goals. She encourages the small act of beginning therapy as a meaningful step and supports clients through practical coping strategies and collaborative planning.

Sessions are offered through a variety of remote formats to fit different schedules and needs. Stephenie aims to tailor treatment to the individual, combining problem-focused strategies with empathic listening to help clients build resilience and move toward clearer goals.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress; it provides concrete exercises and practical strategies clients can use between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and building a trusting therapeutic relationship, offering space for clients to explore feelings and values while the therapist reflects and supports personal insight. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing the effects of traumatic experiences, using stabilizing skills and carefully paced interventions to help people regain a sense of safety and control.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Stephenie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines techniques as appropriate and continually checks in to adapt the plan based on progress and feedback.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it easier to access consistent support from Oklahoma and to integrate therapeutic work into daily life through shorter check-ins or full-length sessions as needed.
