About Stacy

Stacy takes a warm, supportive approach in sessions. She focuses on strengths and practical steps people can try between meetings. Her style is positive and compassionate, with an emphasis on collaboration and listening first.
Background and approach
She often uses client-centered conversations to understand what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are included when helpful to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Solution-focused methods help shape concrete goals and short-term plans.
Stacy has worked in community mental health centers, a hospital detox unit, and with incarcerated women, as well as in independent practice. She has particular experience with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, and understands the stresses of parenting a child with special needs.
Her work also covers issues such as substance abuse, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, codependency, eating and sleep problems, anger, and isolation. She aims to explore alternatives to medication when appropriate and to tailor care to each person’s circumstances. Sessions can be held through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Stacy welcomes people from different locations, and she conducts therapy in English.
How Stacy’s Methods Translate to Online Therapy
Stacy uses client-centered conversations to focus on each person’s priorities and life situation. This approach is about listening carefully, reflecting what matters to you, and shaping sessions around your goals. It helps when someone needs support with anxiety, parenting stress, or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and to try practical experiments to change them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and some eating concerns because it breaks problems into small, manageable steps.
She also draws on solution-focused techniques that aim for clear, short-term goals and immediate strategies. This helps people who want quick, practical changes or tools to manage crises and make progress between sessions.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Stacy will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation often happens in the first few sessions and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and access from different locations. Video calls let you use face-to-face interaction when helpful, phone sessions work well for lower bandwidth or when being on camera isn’t desired, and live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between visits. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum on coping skills and goals.
