About Steven
Steven Brashear, LMHC, helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, and depression. He meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life feel more manageable. Steven frames change as a process people can influence, not something that happens overnight.
He emphasizes strengths and what a person already does well. Steven uses a straightforward, collaborative style in sessions. He listens first, then offers tools drawn from several approaches to match what the client needs.
Background and approach
Sessions often include clear exercises people can try between meetings. He explains ideas in plain language and checks in to see what works. His work draws on methods such as the Gottman Method and acceptance and commitment approaches to help with relationships, values, and coping.
Cognitive behavioral ideas are used to spot unhelpful patterns and replace them with more useful actions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills may be introduced to help regulate strong emotions and manage impulses. Steven holds a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and has five years of professional experience.
He practices from Florida and conducts sessions in English. He focuses on helping people address problems like communication struggles, attachment concerns, body image, and life purpose alongside core issues like anxiety and trauma.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Steven commonly draws on the Gottman Method and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. The Gottman Method focuses on relationship skills, communication, and repair strategies that can be practiced in-session and at home to improve connection and reduce conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take committed actions while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than battling them.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and situation. That might mean using Gottman-informed exercises for relationship concerns or ACT and cognitive-behavioral tools to manage anxiety and mood. The plan can change as clients learn what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and role-play of communication skills. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to exchange quick strategies and stay connected between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and maintain steady progress.
