Over five years of practice in Oklahoma has given her experience with a broad range of concerns. In addition to the main areas above, she also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She brings attention to both day-to-day coping and deeper emotional patterns.

People who work with Stana can expect clear goals and a collaborative plan. She emphasizes empowerment and practical tools that can be used between sessions. The approach balances compassionate listening with action steps to move toward a more fulfilling life.
Approaches and online options for managing anxiety and stress
Stana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety and stress. One approach focuses on teaching emotion regulation and coping skills so clients can respond differently to triggers and reduce overwhelm. Another approach helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, then practices new ways of thinking and behaving to improve mood and self-esteem. These methods aim to give concrete tools that can be used between sessions.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Stana works with each person to learn their goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they try methods that fit the person and adjust the plan as progress is made or needs change.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to stay connected. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and practice of skills. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work for lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients share moments or updates between sessions and fit support into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, or other commitments.
