About Stephanie

Stephanie Crume is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 13 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and relationship strain. She also supports clients facing addiction, grief, parenting pressures, and issues connected to adoption and foster care. Stephanie approaches work with respect for each person’s story and strengths. She frames therapy as a partnership and provides steady support through difficult changes.

Her sessions focus on practical skills and clear steps. Stephanie uses methods that help people notice thoughts and feelings, build routines, and improve communication with loved ones. She helps clients set achievable goals and practice new responses between sessions. The aim is to make daily life feel more manageable.

Stephanie draws from a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Existential Therapy. Those methods guide conversations about values, coping tools, and relationship patterns. She adapts techniques to fit each person’s needs rather than following one fixed plan.

People who come for help often want support with self-esteem, coping with life transitions, or managing long-term conditions like bipolar disorder or chronic illness. Stephanie also works with those dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and communication problems. Her background includes many years of clinical practice in Oklahoma settings.

She offers therapy in English and is open to working with international clients. To start, clients follow the site process to match with her and schedule appointments according to availability.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It teaches noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that worsen symptoms, and replacing them with more helpful habits and skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and emotional responses, and it helps people shift patterns that cause pain.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Stephanie will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.

The therapist biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone keep continuity of care if they move or travel. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work for remote sessions by using exercises, homework, and focused conversations to build new habits and improve relationships.
