About Stephanie
Stephanie Schindler is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) with 26 years of clinical experience. She trained in marriage and family therapy and has spent decades helping people navigate hard seasons in life. Stephanie focuses on practical steps that lead to change rather than lengthy talk alone.
She uses a brief, solution-focused approach to pinpoint problems and try small, effective shifts. In sessions she helps people break worries into manageable steps and find realistic problem-solving techniques.
Background and approach
The goal is to build skills that can be used between appointments. Stephanie works with adults on relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, anger, intimacy concerns, career questions, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She frames challenges as solvable and focuses on what can be changed now.
Therapy sessions are conversational and direct. Stephanie listens to what matters most, then suggests practical strategies to try. She encourages experimentation and reviews what works and what needs adjusting.
Clients who want clear steps, straightforward guidance, and a focus on moving forward may find this style a good fit. Stephanie aims to collaborate with each person to create a path that matches their daily life and responsibilities.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Stephanie draws on evidence-based, solution-focused techniques that aim to quickly identify practical changes a person can make. This approach breaks problems into specific steps, helps set short-term goals, and tracks what improves over time. It can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and everyday parenting concerns.She also brings principles from marriage and family therapy training to individual work, using relational ideas to look at patterns and communication that affect relationships and parenting. That perspective helps people see small shifts that reduce conflict and improve connection.
Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will work together with each client to pick techniques that match their goals, needs, and daily routines. If a strategy isn't helping, adjustments are made so work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging provide flexibility for brief reflections, notes between sessions, or when writing feels most helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between meetings.
