About Stephanie
Stephanie Nunez is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She works with individuals facing panic attacks, social anxiety, and the aftermath of sexual assault. She is fluent in English and Spanish, and she brings nine years of experience to her practice.
Her approach centers on the person in front of her. She practices with empathy and cultural responsiveness, listening carefully to each person’s story before suggesting steps forward.
How Stephanie works
Sessions focus on practical skills, clear goals, and gradual changes that fit day-to-day life. Stephanie describes her work as trauma-informed and person-centered. That means she pays attention to past harm and to how it affects current feelings and behavior.
She tries to make sessions feel respectful and affirming so people can speak openly about painful experiences. She also supports people dealing with life circumstances like chronic pain, blended family dynamics, pregnancy and childbirth, and relationship patterns involving narcissism. Topics such as guilt, shame, isolation, and self-harm are addressed directly and without judgment.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Stephanie draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to individual needs. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying alternative ways of thinking and responding; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and worry. Another approach centers on understanding how past trauma affects present reactions and building coping skills to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. These methods are explained in simple steps and practiced between sessions to build lasting skills.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and personal preferences together and adjust techniques as therapy progresses. Clients and the therapist set the pace and choose strategies that fit each person’s life and comfort level.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work with a licensed professional who speaks their language without needing to change location. Ask about current session options when you schedule.
