    About Stephanie

    Stephanie Altomonte is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 16 years of experience. She focuses on practical steps people can use to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and addiction. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental and aims to help people find clearer direction when life feels overwhelming.

    She often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own motivation for change. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

    Stephanie has worked with people facing seasonal affective disorder, postpartum depression, and veterans’ concerns. She supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, and life transitions. She also helps people with career decisions, parenting strain, and issues related to attention and impulse control.

    Many clients come with concerns about substance use, control issues, or social anxiety. Stephanie uses solution-focused steps alongside mindfulness practices to create manageable goals. The focus is on small changes that add up over time.

    Her work emphasizes figuring out what matters to each person and finding realistic ways to move toward those values. She helps people strengthen coping skills and recognize progress. The overall aim is more stability, clearer priorities, and better day-to-day functioning.

  2. How these approaches translate to online therapy

    Stephanie often brings Motivational Interviewing into sessions to help people clarify their reasons for change and boost commitment to goals. That approach focuses on asking reflective questions and building motivation from a person’s own values. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also used to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts, connect with values, and take small actions toward a meaningful life.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. That collaborative process guides which tools and exercises are used in ongoing sessions.

    If you plan to work online, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and make it simpler to continue work between appointments. Discussing practical needs and scheduling preferences helps shape a plan that fits day-to-day life.
