About Stacee
Stacee Compton is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health (LPC-MH) based in South Dakota with 15 years of experience. She has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and communication problems, parenting challenges, and other life changes. Her work also includes helping those navigating adoption and foster care, blended family issues, attachment concerns, and grief.
Stacee takes a straightforward, person-centered approach. She focuses on building a trusting relationship and meets people where they are.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and paced to each person’s needs. She adapts techniques rather than applying a single method to every situation. In sessions she listens for patterns that affect daily life, such as codependency, control issues, or difficulty regulating emotions.
She uses mindfulness and narrative tools to help clients notice thoughts and reframe painful stories about themselves. Attachment ideas guide work around family of origin, abandonment, and caregiver stress. Parents and caregivers often come with concerns about behavior, attention, or emotional regulation in children and teens.
Stacee also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, bipolar mood challenges, and recovery from domestic violence or other traumatic events. Her style is direct but warm. She helps set small, achievable goals and checks progress each week.
The aim is to reduce overwhelm and increase skills for handling stress and anxiety in everyday life.
Approaches used online and how they help
Attachment-Based Therapy highlights how early relationships shape current patterns. It looks at how closeness, abandonment, or family of origin issues affect feelings and behavior and helps people experiment with new ways of relating.Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s own goals and pace. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection so clients can make sense of their experience and decide what changes to try.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity to stress and anxiety. It can help with rumination, emotion spikes, and being more present during parenting or difficult conversations.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose or blend methods that match goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That collaborative decision is revisited as work progresses.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
