The goal is to make progress that feels realistic and steady.
Background and approach
With 15 years of experience, Stacy brings steady presence to hard conversations. She helps people talk through relationship tensions, communication problems, and the emotional fallout of separation or infidelity. She also addresses deeper themes such as shame, abandonment, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
Her approach pulls from cognitive behavioral methods and brief, solution-focused work. For couples or partners she uses elements of the Gottman Method to improve communication and reduce recurring conflict. Stacy aims to tailor methods to what feels useful for each person rather than following a single script.
Stacy encourages a collaborative pace. She invites people to name small goals and tries out straightforward tools together. Starting therapy is often the hardest step, and she emphasizes practical next steps you can take right away.
Approaches that fit online therapy
Stacy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and teaches practical coping skills for anxiety and mood concerns. She also draws on the Gottman Method for relationship work, focusing on improving communication, reducing conflict cycles, and rebuilding trust between partners.Solution-Focused Therapy is another tool she uses to set small, achievable goals and build momentum. That approach is brief and action-oriented, which can feel good when someone wants fast, useful steps. Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Stacy works with each person to pick approaches that match their goals, needs, and comfort level rather than imposing a single method.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a camera feels uncomfortable. Live chat and text-based messaging enable quick check-ins, brief support between sessions, or ongoing reflection in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and daily routines while pursuing steady progress.
