About Stephanie
Stephanie Crume is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people facing stress and anxiety. She supports those coping with addictions, LGBTQ concerns, family conflict, grief, and life transitions. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical steps you can use day to day.
She treats worries about sleep, work, relationships, and self-esteem with clear strategies and steady encouragement. Sessions center on identifying what matters to each person and building small habits that point toward those values.
Background and approach
Stephanie uses evidence-informed methods to help break unhelpful patterns and to strengthen coping skills. Her work often includes addressing trauma, compassion fatigue, and the strain caregivers experience. She also supports people living with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, and those managing ADHD, chronic illness, or chronic pain.
Conversations are grounded and aimed at useful changes rather than abstract theory. Stephanie draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based ideas to guide sessions. She helps people weigh options, try new responses, and notice what works.
The tone in sessions is collaborative and respectful of each person's history and goals. With 13 years of professional experience, Stephanie focuses on practical progress. She invites clients to name small steps they can take between sessions and to track what shifts.
Her goal is to help people move from feeling stuck to feeling more capable and intentional.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build safer, more connected ways of relating to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stephanie collaborates with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She mixes methods as needed and checks in about what is helping so plans can change over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and work through skills in real time. Phone sessions can be good when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or reflections between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving, and travel while letting licensed professionals provide consistent support.
