About Stephanie

Stephanie Roman is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with two decades of clinical experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her, listening first to understand each client's story. Her style emphasizes practical steps and support as people work toward clearer relationships and steadier mood.

Many clients seek her help for relationship strain, trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Her background includes long-term work with people facing complicated life changes and emotional pain.

Background and approach

She uses Client-Centered Therapy to build trust and to follow each person’s pace. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and reducing self-harm or impulsive behaviors. Narrative Therapy is another tool she uses to help people reframe painful life stories and find different ways to move forward.

Trauma-Focused Therapy offers focused techniques when past harm keeps affecting day-to-day life. Stephanie blends these approaches to match what each person needs in the moment. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-focused.

Conversations include skill practice, problem solving, and revisiting difficult experiences when the client is ready. Her aim is to help people feel more capable and more connected to what matters to them. Stephanie’s work is informed by 20 years of practice in Colorado.

She speaks English and offers several online session formats to fit different schedules.

Using evidence-based approaches in online care

Stephanie often draws from Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, validation, and following the client’s lead to help them make choices that fit their values. DBT offers clear skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review goals, symptoms, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This collaborative process makes it easier to adjust techniques as needs change over time.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules. These formats can make it simpler to keep regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and access care from home or work. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to each format so clients get practical support in ways that fit their life.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
