About Stephanie

Stephanie E Rettig is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, depression, life transitions, and related challenges.

Background and approach

With ten years of clinical experience, she works with individuals across a range of concerns including ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, intimacy-related matters, eating and anger difficulties, and career dissatisfaction. She emphasizes building a strong therapeutic relationship as the foundation for growth and change.

Her approach blends evidence-based methods and client-centered care to support clients in finding greater life satisfaction and emotional balance. Stephanie encourages self-acceptance and explores patterns that limit well-being, guiding clients toward practical tools and deeper self-understanding.

She also attends to attachment-related themes such as abandonment, family of origin issues, communication and commitment problems, and co-occurring challenges. Available Monday through Thursday between 10:30 AM and 5 PM CST, Stephanie maintains a deliberately balanced caseload to offer focused attention.

Prospective clients can expect an empathetic, collaborative therapist who aims to empower people to discover identity, purpose, and a renewed sense of belonging within their relationships and communities.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Stephanie incorporates Internal Family Systems and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered principles to support online clients. Internal Family Systems helps people explore internal parts and their roles, which can clarify patterns around anxiety, self-criticism, or relationship dynamics. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and building psychological flexibility, making it useful for stress, depression, and life transitions. She also emphasizes a client-centered stance that prioritizes empathy and the therapeutic relationship to help clients feel heard and respected.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the collaborative work; she will discuss goals, preferences, and practical concerns with each client to tailor methods that fit. Clients are encouraged to explore which strategies resonate and to adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, online therapy with her provides flexibility for varied schedules and communication styles. These formats allow for ongoing support between in-person commitments, enable access from different locations within Texas, and give options for people who prefer shorter messages or real-time conversations. Licensed professionals can adapt interventions across these channels to maintain continuity of care and responsiveness to client needs.
