About Stephanie
Stephanie Cooley, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Mississippi with 17 years of experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, depression, grief, eating issues, parenting struggles, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and ADHD using approaches she lists as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy.
Cooley frames work as practical and goal-oriented. She uses techniques from CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She combines mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness and uses solution-focused steps to set small, achievable goals.
Her sessions focus on clear skills and short-term strategies when those fit the client’s goals. She also addresses trauma with approaches that aim to reduce distress and build coping skills. Conversations tend to center on concrete problems and what to try next.
Cooley has worked across a wide age span during her career. She emphasizes respect and sensitivity in sessions and adjusts the way she talks and plans work to fit each person’s situation.
Parents reading this should expect straightforward, skills-based work and practical plans to try between meetings. The first sessions usually clarify goals and identify one or two small steps to practice before the next appointment.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Many of her methods adapt well to virtual conversations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and testing new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus; it helps with daily stress and emotion regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust plans based on what works for the client.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it possible to practice skills in the settings where problems actually occur. If you need guidance on which format will fit your routine, mention that in the matching questionnaire when scheduling.
