About Stephanie
Stephanie Gore is a licensed professional counselor practicing in South Carolina. She supports people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and struggles with self-esteem. Her approach is steady and practical, aimed at helping people take small, useful steps forward.

Background and approach
She draws on therapies that emphasize values, present-moment awareness, and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. That means clients might practice mindfulness exercises, try new ways of responding to stress, or work on shifting negative thinking patterns. Motivational techniques are used to help people find reasons to keep trying when change feels hard.
Stephanie aims to create a respectful, culturally aware atmosphere. She pays attention to each person's background and what matters most to them. The work moves at a pace chosen by the client and focuses on practical changes that make daily life easier.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. People who want straightforward guidance and concrete tools often find this approach helpful. Stephanie encourages curiosity, steady effort, and forgiveness toward oneself along the way.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking small steps toward them. Online ACT sessions can help with anxiety, depression, and uncertainty by practicing values-driven choices and acceptance skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical ways to change them. In remote sessions clients may work on thought records, behavior experiments, and techniques to reduce panic or social anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person and adjust strategies based on what feels useful and realistic.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, homework, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options give flexibility so people can keep progress moving even with busy schedules.
