01About Stefanie
Stefanie Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Wisconsin. She draws on 14 years in the mental health field and aims to meet people where they are. Her style is direct but warm, focusing on practical steps you can use day to day.
She has worked in inpatient hospitals, intensive outpatient programs, in-home therapy, case management, and outpatient settings. That breadth means she has experience with depression, anxiety, complex trauma, post-traumatic stress, and severe mental illness.
Background and approach
She also has supported people dealing with relationship tension, family problems, anger, and caregiver stress. Stefanie’s approach is person-centered and flexible. She leans on cognitive behavioral work and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to help with mood, coping, and emotion regulation.
She also uses mindfulness practices and EMDR when trauma processing is needed. She values collaboration over advice-giving. Sessions are a conversation that aims to help each person find workable strategies for their life.
Stefanie believes steady effort over time produces the best changes, similar to building physical health. Stefanie returned to outpatient work after time at home with her young family, and she sees online counseling as a practical way to reach people. She combines problem-solving, values-focused work, and emotion skills so clients can make clearer decisions and feel more able to handle life’s demands.

04Online support
Approaches that translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. It helps people clarify values, set goals, and feel understood while exploring personal solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Stefanie will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and recommend which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change over time depending on what helps most.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation without travel time. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins, homework support, or flexible communication possible between scheduled sessions. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives.
