About Stephanie

Stephanie Camfield is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New Mexico. She brings four years of community-based psychotherapy experience and focuses on family and parenting concerns as well as relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.

She aims to build a strong working relationship rooted in honesty, presence, and a touch of humor to make therapy a practical, engaging process. Her sessions tend to be grounded in mindfulness, somatic awareness, and experiential practices that help people notice how their bodies and beliefs shape daily life.

Background and approach

She emphasizes the role of relationships - with partners, family members, community, and self - and uses those connections as a starting point for change. Stephanie approaches work with openness and genuine appreciation for each person’s story. Stephanie has experience as a school social worker in Native communities, supporting children, youth, families, and advocating for educational services when needed.

She identifies as a Native woman of the Muscogee Nation and integrates an understanding of historical and generational trauma into her care. She also draws on cultural strengths and practices as part of the healing process. She uses a mix of psychotherapeutic approaches including attachment-based, client-centered, existential, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing techniques.

Stephanie is in postgraduate training in Traumatic Stress Studies with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk and continues to develop specialized skills in trauma work. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapy is provided via a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions explore patterns in close relationships, improve connection, and help parents and caregivers respond differently to their children’s needs.

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, nonjudgmental listening, and collaboration. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they identify practical changes and set personal goals during remote sessions.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention skills and body awareness to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These practices can be guided in video or audio sessions and adapted to phone, chat, or text formats for daily use.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together they will choose which techniques to try. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Online formats offer flexibility for busy families and caregivers. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions provide an easier access option, and live chat or text-based messaging supports brief check-ins and ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a family schedule while maintaining consistent progress.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
