About Steven
Steven Nordeen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin. He brings six years of clinical experience and a straightforward, person-centered way of working. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.
Sessions are built around respect, honesty, and practical steps clients can use between meetings. Before counseling, he held roles in vocational rehabilitation, case management, and forensic mental health. That work involved helping people with severe and persistent mental illness navigate services and legal systems.
Background and approach
He also has background in corrections and a variety of nonclinical jobs that shaped his problem-solving approach. His style is influenced by humanistic ideas and Client-Centered Therapy. He aims to treat people with unconditional positive regard while keeping conversations direct and realistic.
He expects honesty from clients and offers the same in return. In sessions he mixes approaches to match what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps when patterns of thinking and behavior cause distress.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change addictive behaviors or move toward new goals. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas may be brought in to understand long-standing patterns. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
People who prefer working online can expect practical tools, clear goals, and collaborative planning. The focus is on manageable steps and building skills to handle anger, stress, and related concerns.

Approaches online that focus on change and meaning
Steven commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions, which means conversations start with the client's concerns and move at their pace while the therapist reflects and supports. It helps people who need a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through difficult feelings and decisions.He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is useful for managing anger, anxiety, and stress by teaching practical skills and small behavior changes. Motivational Interviewing may be used when someone is weighing a change, such as cutting back on substance use; it helps clarify motivation and build commitment.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust over time based on what helps. Clients take part in deciding the focus and pace of work.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can offer shorter check-ins, and messaging lets someone pace communication over time. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life while working toward clearer thinking and better emotional control.
