Stephanie Douple, LPC

Stephanie Douple brings lived experience and formal training to her work supporting people facing substance misuse and mental health challenges. Raised partly in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and living in multiple states as a child, she completed a Bachelor of Science in Advertising and Broadcasting with minors in Marketing and Public Relations in Utah before launching a career in the performing arts and fashion industries. Her early years included modeling and work in marketing, and she later taught performing arts and managed talent, experiences that shaped her collaborative and creative approach to helping others.

In 2018 Stephanie confronted her own struggles with substance misuse and mental health, a turning point that led to a deep personal and spiritual shift and inspired a professional pivot. She trained as a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and went on to earn a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She also holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - reflecting her graduate-level training and clinical licensure. Her practice is grounded in person-centered work and integrates evidence-based methods such as Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Known for a warm, authentic style, Stephanie values reducing stigma and helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, self-esteem concerns, and depression. She balances professional commitment with a personal love of sunshine, good food, and playful moments, bringing both empathy and practical skills to therapy.

Evidence-Based Therapies Delivered Through Online Care

Stephanie integrates a few targeted, evidence-based approaches to address trauma, addiction, and emotional difficulties. Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) focuses on identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs and replacing them with more constructive ways of thinking - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. Internal Family Systems (IFS) helps clients understand and work with different parts of themselves - that process can support healing from trauma, codependency, and attachment wounds. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, often applied when trauma or abuse is central to a person’s concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Stephanie works collaboratively with each client to explore their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they determine which techniques or combination of techniques will be the best fit for the work ahead.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, access support from home or work, and integrate therapy into daily life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to individual needs.
