About Stephanie
Stephanie Borgono is a licensed clinical social worker with 19 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so clients can use skills in daily life. She works with people who want clearer coping strategies and better self-esteem.
In sessions she focuses on concrete steps that reduce anxiety and lift mood. She uses structured tools to spot unhelpful thinking and then tests new behaviors.
Background and approach
She also adds mindfulness exercises to ease tension and improve focus. Stephanie favors a collaborative, down-to-earth style. She listens for what matters most and then builds small plans to move forward.
Conversations are paced to fit each person’s needs and comfort level. Her background as an LCSW gives her broad experience across common and complex concerns. Over her career she has supported people through major life transitions and relationship challenges.
That experience informs how she helps clients problem-solve and regain balance. Therapy sessions may include skills practice, short experiments between appointments, and mindfulness work. The goal is steady progress through practical changes rather than quick fixes.
She practices in New Jersey and conducts sessions in English.
Approaches used in online therapy
Stephanie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to help people manage anxiety and mood concerns. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more balanced thinking, which can reduce worry and improve daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower stress and increase focus.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls let people work face to face when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions can be easier when a camera is not wanted, and chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins or those who prefer written communication. These options help fit therapy into work, family, and everyday life.
