Judith Stanton, LPC

Judith Stanton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 29 years of clinical experience. She invites people to begin by taking a small step toward change and then meets them with respect and steady collaboration. Judith aims to build a trusting relationship where practical, workable solutions are found together.

Her practice focuses on common life problems such as relationship struggles, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress, and the ripple effects of trauma and addiction. She also addresses intimacy-related concerns, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to caregiving or chronic illness. Judith draws on long experience helping people cope with abandonment, family-of-origin issues, codependency, and complications that follow major health events like cancer or HIV/AIDS.

Her background includes community-based counseling and work in outpatient, clinical, and correctional settings. That variety has exposed her to homelessness, domestic violence, and long-term effects of childhood abuse and neglect. Judith has supported people needing short-term coping strategies as well as those pursuing longer-term therapeutic work.

In sessions she keeps the approach straightforward and people-focused. She aims to listen deeply, reflect what matters, and help clients practice new ways of thinking and relating. The goal is to move toward everyday peace and more reliable joy in ordinary life.

Judith welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into a person’s routine and what to expect in early sessions. She encourages prospective clients to reach out and begin with a simple matching step to find the right next move.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current bonds and trust. It helps people who struggle with connection, abandonment worries, or repeating patterns in relationships by examining how they relate to others and themselves.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person's own experience and choices. The therapist listens without judgment, reflects what the client says, and supports the person in finding their own solutions for issues like depression, grief, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is practical and skills-focused, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and coping with difficult life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest ways of combining methods that fit a person's needs. That collaboration continues as progress is tracked and methods are adjusted together.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm available session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Different approaches translate well to online sessions - for example, CBT lends itself to skills practice and homework, while client-centered and attachment-based work focus on conversation and relationship-building over time.
