About Stephanie
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with nine years of clinical experience. Stephanie Nunez helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, and low self-esteem. She works with additional concerns such as panic and mood disorders, social anxiety, isolation and loneliness, and women's issues including pregnancy and childbirth.
Stephanie uses a person-centered, trauma-informed stance in sessions. That means she starts by listening to what matters most to each person. She pays attention to cultural background and life context while working alongside clients to set clear, manageable goals.
In practice she focuses on skills that reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Sessions can include exploring reactions to past harm, learning strategies to manage panic or anger, and addressing the emotional effects of chronic illness or difficult relationships. She also supports people processing experiences of sexual assault and self-harm thoughts.
Stephanie speaks English and Spanish and offers clinical work in both languages. Her approach emphasizes collaboration - she helps clients try methods and then adjusts based on what works. The aim is steady, realistic improvement rather than quick fixes.
Clients start by describing their current struggles and goals. From there she and the client choose practical steps for change and check progress regularly. New clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to begin.

How evidence-based methods translate to remote sessions
Stephanie works from a trauma-informed, person-centered perspective and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and everyday problems. One common technique involves skills training to manage anxiety and panic - people learn breathing, grounding, and behavioral strategies to reduce immediate distress and regain control. Another approach focuses on processing traumatic or painful experiences in a careful, paced way so memories feel less overwhelming and day-to-day reactions lessen.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She asks about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they test methods, review progress, and change plans when needed to fit how someone responds in real life.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, such as attending a shorter check-in during a work break or choosing a phone session when video would be difficult. Many people find remote work reduces travel time and helps maintain continuity of care when schedules shift.
