About Stephanie

Stephanie Claudio is a licensed social worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, relationship strain, and self-esteem struggles. She is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas. Stephanie also supports people managing ADHD and those involved in adoption and foster care processes.

She uses practical tools to improve communication and to manage intense emotions like guilt and shame. Stephanie draws on techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions often include learning small skills that can be used between meetings.

Stephanie has four years of clinical experience and works with young adults and people aged 6 to 17, focusing on attachment issues and family of origin patterns. She pays attention to how early relationships shape current behavior and relationships. This helps when addressing things like codependency, impulsivity, and obsessive thinking.

People can expect a collaborative tone in the room. Stephanie prioritizes listening first, then tailoring strategies that fit each person’s goals and life. Topics she commonly addresses include divorce and separation, communication problems, fertility-related stress, and forgiveness work.

Her practice centers on steady progress rather than quick fixes. She aims to help clients build clearer boundaries, more dependable routines, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when emotions feel intense. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and improving motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns; it helps people recognize and change repeating dynamics in relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns, which often helps with anxiety and obsessive thinking. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals and life. Sessions may blend elements from different approaches so the plan matches what a person needs and prefers. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or reduce travel time. Online work can also make it simpler to practice skills between meetings and to bring real-life situations into conversation. Licensed professionals tailor pacing and tools so therapy fits everyday routines rather than upending them.
