About Stephanie
Stephanie Safos-Moriarty is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 11 years of experience. She focuses on practical therapy that helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, depression, grief, and ADHD. Stephanie speaks plainly and aims to make starting therapy feel achievable for someone worried or overwhelmed.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and learn new coping skills. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy are also part of her approach, so sessions tend to be goal-directed and action oriented.
Background and approach
She matches methods to each person rather than using one fixed style. In sessions she helps clients build routines, manage mood swings, reduce impulsive behavior, and improve communication skills. She also supports people facing trauma, substance use concerns, eating or sleeping problems, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her work includes supporting those who identify as LGBT and people coping with compassion fatigue and career stress. Stephanie practices in Florida as a FL LMHC. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules.
Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time and costs vary by location and therapist availability. To begin, a person chooses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability. Stephanie aims to partner with clients so they can set clear goals and see steady progress.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and replacing them with more useful ones. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with motivation or focus. DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling difficult relationships.Stephanie approaches treatment as a collaboration. She will work with each person to decide which approach or combination of approaches fits their goals and situation. That means trying practical tools in early sessions and adjusting the plan as progress and needs become clearer.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people read facial cues and practice new communication skills. Phone sessions can be a simpler way to check in when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and texting make short, frequent check-ins possible and can fit into busy days or work breaks. These formats help people fit therapy into their lives while working on skills from CBT and DBT.
