The goal is to find concrete steps that fit each person's life. Her professional path includes roles in both clinical and academic settings. She has worked with counseling practices and directed arts programming focused on grief and loss.
She also taught humanities and ran a university writing center, which shaped her interest in storytelling and meaning-making. Stoneberg offers therapy online and emphasizes collaborative planning.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and commitment work focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It’s useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and navigating life changes because it emphasizes doing what matters even with difficult feelings.Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify and change thought patterns that drive distress. Sessions include practical exercises and behavior changes that can reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and anger over time.
Arts-based methods use poetry, visual art, or expressive movement to name emotions and process grief. These practices can be paired with talk therapy to reach feelings that are hard to put into words.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist works with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and daily routine, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for deeper work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers writing. Together these formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work and family life.
