Stephanie Camfield, LCSW

Stephanie Camfield is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Mexico who brings four years of community-based psychotherapy experience to her practice. She emphasizes the healing power of a strong therapeutic relationship and meets people with a grounded presence, honesty, and a sense of warmth that includes humor when appropriate. Stephanie combines experiential work with evidence-based practices, drawing on mindfulness, somatic awareness, and compassion to help clients access new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Her clinical focus includes relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes. Stephanie has experience as a school social worker serving Native communities, offering support to children, adolescents, and families and assisting with advocacy so children receive services that meet their needs. As a Native woman of the Muscogee Nation, she brings a lived understanding of historical and generational trauma and values cultural practices as important resources for healing and resilience.

Stephanie is pursuing postgraduate training in Traumatic Stress Studies with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, which complements her community-centered approach and strengthens her work with trauma-impacted individuals and families.

Therapeutic Approaches for Remote Care

Stephanie Camfield draws on attachment-based work to explore how early and current relationships shape patterns of trust, communication, and emotional safety. This approach can be helpful for people working through relationship difficulties, family conflict, or struggles with closeness and boundaries.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to help clients develop present-moment awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations. Mindfulness practices support coping with stress, regulation of strong feelings, and building resilience after difficult experiences.

Client-centered principles guide her practice, meaning the therapist maintains an accepting, nonjudgmental stance and follows the client’s pace and priorities. This collaborative way of working helps people feel heard and supported as they explore their goals and values.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Licensed professionals and therapists work together with clients to identify which methods fit best based on individual needs, goals, and preferences. Stephanie aims to tailor interventions and adjust course as healing unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people seeking care. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility to meet from different locations and at varied times. For many clients this accessibility makes it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing family, work, and other commitments.
