Background and approach
She focuses on practical skills that someone can use between sessions. Her approach blends several methods so care fits each person. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act on them. Attachment-based and client-centered ideas shape how she builds a trusting relationship. She pays attention to how relationships, culture, and life roles affect stress and coping.
Sessions can include emotion regulation tools, communication practice, and problem-solving strategies. Stacey works with adults across a wide age range and brings a strengths-based, trauma-aware perspective. She likes to explain how and why certain tools are used when clients want that background.
Her goal is steady progress toward clear, doable goals while keeping sessions grounded and relatable.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters, and take small meaningful steps toward those values. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that fuel symptoms like depression, anxiety, or problematic habits; it often uses concrete exercises and homework to build new routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. That shared decision helps tailor a plan that feels doable rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video works well for fuller conversations and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can support shorter updates, between-session coaching, or people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to keep momentum and use skills in real time without traveling to an office.
