About Stephanie
Stephanie Roman is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Colorado with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing relationship strains, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. Stephanie focuses on practical support and steadiness as people move through difficult moments.
She uses client-centered methods to help people put their own priorities first. That means conversations that focus on what the person already knows about their life and what they want to change. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and coping skills for stress, anxiety, and anger.
Narrative Therapy is part of her approach for people who feel stuck in a single story about themselves. She helps clients look at how personal histories shape decisions and relationships. When trauma is present, Trauma-Focused Therapy methods guide careful, paced work on painful memories and their ongoing effects.
Over two decades Stephanie has worked with a wide range of concerns including addiction, ADHD, grief, intimacy issues, sleep problems, and career stress. She also supports people navigating adoption and foster care issues, caregiver strain, and chronic illness or pain. Her work includes addresssing family of origin dynamics, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Stephanie helps people build skills, reframe painful stories, and try new ways of handling relationships and stress. To begin, she asks about goals and what has or hasn’t helped so far.
How Stephanie’s approaches translate to online work
Stephanie commonly uses client-centered therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's priorities, which can help when sorting out relationships, identity, and career choices. DBT offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, stress, and anger, useful for anxiety, addiction, and mood instability.Narrative Therapy is also part of her toolbox and helps people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. That approach can be helpful for issues like shame, family of origin problems, and feeling stuck after major life changes. Together these methods give practical steps as well as ways to rethink personal narratives.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, past experiences, and what has or hasn’t worked before recommending techniques. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to try and adjust them as needed.
