01About Stephanie
Stephanie Dixon is a licensed professional counselor with 13 years of experience who helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life changes. She speaks plainly and aims to make sessions feel approachable. Her style is warm and interactive while keeping conversations focused on real-world steps people can try between meetings.
She began as a career counselor and later broadened her work to include adults and young adults who need help with relationships, parenting stress, or adoption and foster care concerns.
Background and approach
Her background includes long experience addressing trauma, post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, and sexual assault and abuse. She also assists people dealing with addictions, grief, and issues around self-esteem and self-love. In sessions she blends Attachment-Based ideas with client-centered listening and practical Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools.
She can be direct when a clear plan is needed, yet she invites clients to guide the agenda and give feedback about what is or is not helpful. Motivational interviewing helps with making changes and staying committed to goals. Stephanie pays attention to how past relationships affect current behavior and mood.
She works with common life challenges like parenting strain, caregiver stress, career transitions, and social anxiety. Expect a focus on coping strategies you can use right away and on building healthier patterns over time. Her practice is based in Missouri and sessions are offered in English.
She aims to collaborate so each person finds an approach that matches their needs and pace.

How Stephanie’s Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions use conversation and exercises to notice patterns and build safer ways of relating. This approach can help with attachment issues, family problems, and struggles that come from adoption or foster care experiences.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following what matters most to the client. In practice this means sessions are driven by the person's priorities while the therapist reflects and asks questions that deepen awareness and choice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, offered alongside these approaches, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses simple experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting - useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which approaches match their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may shift over time as goals change and progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options offer flexibility so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort.
