Stephanie Horner , LPCC

Stephanie Horner is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a long career spanning both healthcare and mental health. She spent the first decade of her professional life in nursing, including work as a high-risk labor and delivery nurse, and then moved into school health administration and program development for at-risk youth. For the past 25 years she has practiced as a counselor and therapist, offering services to children and adolescents with emotional, behavioral, and special needs as well as support for their parents. She now focuses primarily on an adult population.

That varied background gives her a broad perspective on the kinds of stressors and complex situations people face. She has extensive experience helping individuals manage change and adjustment, build self-esteem, and address anxiety, trauma, depression, and parenting concerns. Her approach blends compassion with structure - she is described as kind, gentle, empathic, positive, and a good listener, while also being serious, thoughtful, wholistic, client-centered, and solution-focused.

Her objective as a therapist is practical and collaborative. She guides clients through identifying the relevant issues (problems), clarifying their wants and needs, and learning skills and techniques to create sustainable solutions that support not only immediate relief but long-term well-being. Ultimately, she aims to empower people as they navigate life transitions, challenges, and growth.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can make a meaningful difference. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

One of the primary benefits is flexibility. Clients can connect in whatever way fits their life and comfort level, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to keep appointments and integrate therapeutic work into a busy schedule.

Licensed professionals offer these remote services, and clients have the option to change therapists at any time if they feel another fit would be better. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible, practical way to pursue personal growth and address everyday mental health concerns.
