Background and approach
Stacie approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings as well as talking through what feels stuck.
Her style is warm and straightforward. She aims to create a calm space to sort through worries, practice better communication, and reduce daily stress. Stacie helps clients break down big problems into manageable goals and small actions.
People often come for help with guilt or shame, caregiver stress, codependency, isolation, and workplace strain. She also supports those working through forgiveness, life purpose questions, and challenges related to pregnancy and childbirth. Stacie adapts her approach to each person’s needs and priorities.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Many evidence-based techniques focus on changing thought patterns and building skills for daily life. One common approach helps people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts so anxiety has less hold. This method is useful for everyday worry, panic symptoms, and persistent negative thinking.Another approach emphasizes gradual practice and behavior change. It breaks difficult tasks into small steps and uses repeated practice to reduce avoidance and build confidence. That style is often helpful for managing stress, improving communication, and addressing relationship patterns like codependency.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, while phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can help maintain momentum between sessions or fit into busy schedules. These options help people access consistent support without rearranging as much of daily life.
