About Stephanie
LCSW in Florida with five years of experience. Stephanie Goossens Alayon helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and works from a background that includes clinical social work.
Stephanie focuses on short-term, skills-based work and deeper attachment themes when needed. She uses evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness practices, solution-focused planning, and attachment-based ideas to address patterns that cause pain.
Sessions often begin with a few concrete goals. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practices small changes that can reduce distress. For relationship and family issues she looks at how past attachments affect current connections and communication.
Stephanie has five years of experience working with adults in clinical settings. Before that she spent time supporting adolescents and young adults in related roles. That background shapes how she blends skills training with attention to early relationship patterns.
Her work is practical and paced to the person. She can help people build coping skills for daily stress, manage strong emotions, and plan next steps during life transitions. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session to see if the fit feels right.

How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current interactions and trust. Online sessions use talking and behavioral exercises to map those patterns and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes. In remote sessions a therapist guides thought records, behavioral experiments, and between-session practice to reduce anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. These are often practiced in session with role-plays and then applied in daily life to help manage intense emotions and improve communication. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is reviewed and new priorities emerge. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals commonly use these benefits to help people maintain consistency with therapy while balancing everyday life.Sheet 3
