About Stephanie

Stephanie Weinblatt is a licensed counselor with 16 years of clinical experience. She is licensed as an LCPC in Illinois and holds an LPC, and she focuses on concerns like parenting, self-esteem, coping with life changes, coaching, ADHD, stress, and anxiety. She emphasizes a strengths-based view, inviting clients to use their skills and knowledge as the foundation for change.

Stephanie listens first and follows the client’s lead. She sees people as the experts on their own story and works to build confidence and motivation.

Background and approach

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented when helpful, and they also make space for reflection and processing. Her approach blends client-centered principles with techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT. That means she pays attention to each person’s values and perspective while also working on thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.

The combination supports solving daily problems and changing patterns that cause stress. Stephanie often helps people facing life transitions, midlife shifts, pregnancy or postpartum changes, and women's health concerns. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, and depression using a collaborative style.

Her goal is to support and empower clients as they take steps toward a more satisfying life. Therapy with Stephanie invites honest conversation and clear goals. New clients can expect a respectful, encouraging space to try new strategies and build lasting skills.

How approaches like client-centered therapy and CBT work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting each person's own goals. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to build confidence before trying new behaviors.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets specific thoughts and actions that contribute to stress or low mood. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and motivation by teaching simple skills to change patterns and test new habits.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Stephanie will work with each person to figure out what methods suit their goals and preferences. She blends listening with practical tools and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions simplify check-ins, and live chat or text messaging can support brief troubleshooting or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a parenting schedule, workday, or a period of life change while keeping focus on clear, achievable goals.

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.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
