About Stacie
She focuses on common problems such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and mood concerns including bipolar disorder. She also addresses trauma-related symptoms, addiction struggles, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges tied to ADHD and obsessive behaviors.
Stacie adapts sessions to each person’s needs. She uses familiar therapy approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking, attachment-based ideas to address relationship patterns, and client-centered methods that keep the person’s goals central. Dialectical behavior therapy tools and existential perspectives are also part of her toolbox when they fit a person’s aims.
Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She aims to create a respectful space where people can talk through tough feelings, try new coping skills, and set realistic steps toward change. She invites collaboration on treatment plans and focuses on what matters most to the person sitting in front of her.
Stacie encourages those ready to make a change to take a small step first. She supports people through grief, career stress, caregiver strain, and life transitions, helping them find clearer directions and practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.
Approaches that guide online work and life changes
Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It can help people notice repeated patterns in closeness, trust, and abandonment concerns and try different ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking, reduce anxiety, and improve mood through small behavioral changes. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist following the person’s lead and offering empathic reflection to clarify goals and choices.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration can shift over time as priorities change or progress is made.
If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking since formats are set by the practice. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people continue momentum through life transitions or while managing caregiving or work responsibilities. A therapist will discuss how to structure sessions so they match each person’s schedule and goals.
