About Steven
Steven Goe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 30 years of professional experience. He helps people facing grief and loss, career transitions, stress and anxiety, and life changes related to aging, fertility, and adoption. He also supports men dealing with sexuality and related concerns, and works with clients on workplace and relationship strains.
Steven uses straightforward conversation to clarify what matters most to each person. He creates a setting where clients can speak about difficult thoughts and feelings without judgement. Sessions focus on identifying practical steps, exploring values, and testing small changes that fit day-to-day life.
His background includes executive and professional coaching alongside clinical practice. That combination shapes a style that blends listening with goal-oriented techniques. Clients often work on career decisions, midlife questions, or rebuilding after loss.
Clinically, Steven draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide the work. He uses these approaches to address anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and questions of life purpose.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what the client is saying to help them clarify values and choices. It is useful for people trying to work out what matters after a big life change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety and low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on doable steps and small experiments that move a person toward clearer goals and decisions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each client to identify which methods match their goals and preferences, and adjust as the work progresses.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the time spent traveling to appointments. Licensed professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity during life transitions and to support goal-focused work without requiring in-person attendance.
