About Stacy
Stacy Freeland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri who focuses on easing stress and anxiety. She centers sessions on each person’s strengths and helps people take the first steps toward change. Stacy frames therapy as a partnership where the client’s story guides the work.
She uses straightforward conversations to identify what feels stuck and what matters most. Typical concerns addressed include anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and struggles with addiction.
Background and approach
Stacy also supports people dealing with grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, sleep and eating issues, and changes in life or career. Her approach draws on several practical methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and small, meaningful actions. Mindfulness work helps people learn to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. Stacy takes a collaborative style in sessions, listening first and tailoring techniques to fit a person’s goals.
She aims to make steps feel manageable and to build skills that work day to day. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to suit different needs. With four years of experience, Stacy brings steady support and a focus on practical change.
People who want clear tools, calm conversation, and a strengths-based approach often find this style useful.
How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful actions even when thoughts or feelings are uncomfortable. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by directing attention toward what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood changes because it uses clear exercises and homework. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to notice thoughts and sensations without reacting to them, which can reduce reactivity and improve daily coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Stacy will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend techniques from these approaches. The plan can be adjusted over time so methods match progress and changing needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let people use visual cues and hands-on exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging works well for brief check-ins, daily coaching, or bridging between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between appointments.
