About Stephanie

Stephanie Greene is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in South Carolina with 20 years of psychotherapy and clinical social work experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strains, eating and body image concerns, parenting pressures, grief, addiction, career questions, and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder.

She helps people who are dealing with family issues, blended family challenges, and problems that come from difficult communications and attachment wounds. Stephanie also supports those coping with life changes, caregiver stress, cancer-related concerns, and the aftermath of separation or divorce.

Her practice often includes work on eating-related issues such as binge eating, bulimia, anorexia, obesity, and preparation for or recovery after bariatric surgery. Many clients continue beyond crisis work to focus on health maintenance and keeping steady coping skills in place.

Stephanie uses straightforward talk and clear boundaries in sessions. She describes her style as personable and direct, and she asks clients to take an active role in the work between sessions. That work may include skill practice, reflection, or goal-focused tasks that support longer term coping.

Her background includes private practice since 2002, experience as a lead psychological editor for a national surgical journal column, and teaching as adjunct faculty at the college level. She also maintains professional affiliations related to clinical social work.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Before booking, confirm current session formats and any scheduling details so they match your needs.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people name their own priorities. It supports people who need a calm, respectful space to talk through family pressures, relationship worries, or parenting strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and habits that keep problems going. It uses concrete exercises and small experiments to change how someone responds to stress, anxiety, mood shifts, or eating-related urges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. It can help when people feel overwhelmed by impulsive behaviors, intense mood swings, or difficult family interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie will discuss methods and fit with each person and make collaborative decisions based on goals and preferences. That means trying practical tools, noticing what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, require less travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what style of session would fit your schedule and daily life.
