Stephanie Borgono

Stephanie Borgono, LCSW, supports people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She has 19 years of experience and helps clients who are managing ADHD and other challenges, including concerns related to intellectual disability. Her style is direct and practical, focused on everyday tools that make life more manageable.

She uses short, concrete steps in sessions so people can try ideas between meetings. Stephanie emphasizes clear communication and building habits that reduce overwhelm. She pairs goal-focused work with mindfulness practices to steady attention and mood.

Clients can expect collaborative sessions that prioritize immediate problems and workable strategies. Stephanie invites people to set small goals and track what helps. She explains therapeutic techniques in plain language and checks in about progress often.

Her background includes nearly two decades of clinical practice in New Jersey as a licensed clinical social worker. Stephanie has worked with a range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and identity questions. She brings that experience to practical problem solving in therapy.

Stephanie blends cognitive behavioral methods with solution-focused planning and mindfulness exercises. She helps people identify unhelpful thinking, practice new responses, and build routines that support emotional stability. The emphasis is on skills that fit daily life and can be adjusted as needs change.

Approaches that guide online sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. It focuses on practical exercises and small experiments you can try between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing skills to lessen reactivity and improve focus. It is useful for stress, racing thoughts, and managing impulsivity by training present-moment awareness.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear, short-term goals and what is working already. Sessions often map out the next small step toward a stated goal and measure progress in concrete ways.

Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, preferences, and goals and then try methods that feel like a good fit. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.

Please confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, as specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and focus so therapy fits into everyday life without asking clients to change routines drastically.
