About Stephanie

LPC Stephanie Cooley has 17 years of clinical experience in Mississippi working with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, relationship and family concerns, depression, grief, eating issues, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her practice. Sessions are conducted in English. Stephanie does not accept international clients.

Stephanie focuses on clear, practical conversations. She helps people name what feels most urgent and chooses small, doable steps to try between sessions. Expect straightforward talk about patterns of thought, behavior, and routine that affect mood and relationships. Stephanie emphasizes skills practice and brief, focused goals so progress can be measured.

Her approach includes thought work from CBT to challenge unhelpful thinking. She uses mindfulness techniques to teach attention and stress management. Solution-Focused Therapy helps people identify strengths and next steps when a full plan is not yet needed. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events are affecting daily functioning.

Stephanie has experience across a wide age range and across many problem areas. She aims to make sessions practical and relevant to everyday life, such as parenting demands, work stress, or relationship conflict. She asks about routines and responsibilities to keep recommendations realistic.

Sessions follow a collaborative style. Goals are set together and revisited regularly. Clients are directed to specific exercises, breathing and attention practices, thought records, and short behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping.

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In online sessions this often means reviewing thought records, setting small behavioral experiments, and tracking outcomes between meetings. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and ADHD-related challenges.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment focus. Online sessions can include guided breathing, short attention exercises, and discussion of how to integrate these practices into daily routines.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will review symptoms, daily routines, and goals with the client and recommend either CBT, mindfulness techniques, solution-focused steps, or trauma-focused work as appropriate. The plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most.

This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins during breaks. Some methods translate well to shorter or more frequent meetings, while others use longer sessions for skills practice; Stephanie will discuss format and timing that best match a person’s schedule and therapeutic needs.
