About Stephanie
Stephanie Fredericka is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New Jersey. She brings ten years of experience to brief and ongoing therapy. Her background centers on practical, down-to-earth work with people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and related struggles.
She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with clearer choices. Solution-focused techniques help set small, concrete goals so progress is visible. Psychodynamic ideas are used when it helps to understand patterns that repeat over time.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be calm and straightforward. Stephanie begins by listening to what matters most, then builds a plan focused on the client’s own strengths. She aims for steps that can be tried between sessions and adjusted as needed.
Clients come for many reasons including trouble sleeping, relationship strain, grief, addiction concerns, ADHD, parenting stress, career pressure, and coping with big life changes. She also offers support around compassion fatigue and mood-related issues like bipolar disorder. Therapy can look different depending on a person’s needs.
Stephanie leans toward approaches that are practical and goal-oriented, while also making space for deeper reflection when that feels helpful. Her style is warm and encouraging, with attention to what will make life easier day to day.

Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Stephanie commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety, anger, or depressive patterns. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on current strengths and small, achievable goals so change feels manageable and progress shows up quickly.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs, adjusting the plan as you go. Together you decide which techniques to keep and which to set aside based on what helps most.
Online formats offer practical advantages. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for flexible, ongoing support between sessions and can fit into busy schedules. These options make it easier to get consistent help while balancing work, family, or other demands.
