About Stephanie

LCSW in New Jersey with 10 years of experience, Stephanie Fredericka helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and related concerns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. Sessions are presented in English and focus on practical skills and understanding what drives difficult feelings.

Stephanie meets people where they are and starts by listening to what matters most right now. She and the client set short-term goals and check progress each week. She emphasizes clear, actionable steps such as changing unhelpful thinking, trying small behavior shifts, and testing new ways of coping.

Her offerings include support for parenting strain, relationship stress, grief, sleep and eating problems, substance use concerns, bipolar mood challenges, and career-related stress. She also works with people facing compassion fatigue and burnout. Stephanie combines a problem-solving stance with attention to past patterns that still affect current life.

In sessions she often blends CBT techniques for symptom relief with psychodynamic ideas about early patterns. Solution-focused methods help people identify what works now and scale it up. The mix is designed to move someone from feeling stuck to clearer next steps.

Practical matters are part of the process. Stephanie uses a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people use the platform’s matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the provided booking flow.

How Stephanie’s approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises, tracking moods between sessions, and step-by-step practice to reduce anxiety or improve sleep.

Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that began earlier in life and how they show up now. In remote sessions this can mean talking about recurring relationship patterns and noticing emotional themes that come up in the session itself.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete changes and measurable goals. Online meetings can be used to set one or two clear targets, check progress, and adjust plans quickly.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match goals, preferences, and what is most helpful in session. This is revisited as needs change.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Ask about the available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire. Online work can make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day, allow sessions without travel, or reduce the need to be on camera for every meeting, depending on the formats offered.
