About Stephanye
Stephanye Clagett is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with four years of counseling experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship problems. She also supports clients facing issues like grief, addictions, low self-esteem, and challenges tied to ADHD and career stress.
Before counseling, she spent over a decade working as a chiropractor and noticed how often chronic pain and emotional distress were linked. That observation led her to switch careers and focus on mental health work. Her clinical background informs a practical approach that considers both body and mind.
She works with adults, teens, and couples on worries that range from panic symptoms to life transitions and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions often look at root causes and teach coping skills people can use day to day. Stephanye uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods, brief solution-focused strategies, mindfulness practices, and trauma-informed care.
Clients can expect a collaborative process where goals and steps are discussed together. She describes the work as hands-on and skills oriented, helping people build resilience and develop clearer ways to handle stress and relationship patterns. The focus includes practical change rather than abstract theory.
If someone is exploring therapy for guilt or shame connected to relationships, faith, or past actions, Stephanye’s background in trauma-informed approaches and mindfulness may be relevant. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
Therapeutic methods and how online sessions work
Stephanye commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; this can be useful for anxiety, depression, and guilt tied to repetitive thinking. She also draws on solution-focused strategies that emphasize small, practical steps and short-term goals to make immediate changes when stress or life transitions feel overwhelming.Mindfulness practices are part of her offering and are explained in simple ways that help clients notice bodily signals and reduce reactivity. These techniques are often combined with trauma-informed perspectives to address how past events affect current feelings and relationships. Choosing and adapting approaches happens collaboratively; she helps clients weigh what fits their goals and preferences as sessions progress.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work or caregiving, allow a shorter check-in on busy days, or avoid travel time. Therapists who work online can still offer focused, evidence-based techniques and practical homework between meetings to support progress outside sessions.
