About Stephanye
Stephanye Clagett is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina with four years of clinical experience. She moved into counseling after more than a decade as a chiropractor, seeing how pain and emotional struggles often go hand in hand. That experience shaped her interest in helping people address both inner and physical sources of distress.
She helps adults, teens, and couples facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and life transitions. She also supports people dealing with relationship problems, low self-esteem, substance concerns, and career strain. Stephanye takes a warm and collaborative approach, meeting clients where they are and focusing on practical steps forward.
In sessions she emphasizes identifying root causes, building healthier coping skills, and creating changes that last. Her work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. This can include looking at thought patterns, setting concrete goals, and practicing present-moment awareness.
Stephanye is experienced supporting concerns related to ADHD, intimacy, anger, and compassion fatigue, as well as additional areas such as abandonment, blended family issues, and fatherhood challenges. She frames therapy as a team process and encourages clear communication and incremental progress.
If someone wants to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session. The first steps focus on understanding immediate needs and planning achievable goals together.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online work
Stephanye uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and helps people try specific alternative actions to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns. Mindfulness-based strategies teach simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and improve emotion regulation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences together and adjust methods over time. This helps tailor sessions to what actually works for the person rather than relying on a single method from the start.
Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as scheduling brief check-ins on a lunch break or avoiding travel time to an office. Please confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Licensed professionals can help plan how sessions will fit into daily routines and recommend homework or short practices to use between meetings.
