About Stacy
Stacy’s practice grew from work in several clinical settings where she met people at different points in life. She talks through what feels stuck and helps people build practical skills. Sessions focus on improving day-to-day coping, handling upsetting thoughts, and repairing communication patterns that cause recurring conflict.
Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot thought patterns that keep problems going. She also uses client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities, and elements of dialectical behavior work for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Stacy describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide each step.
People often come with questions about direction after big changes, feeling empty, or doubts about relationships and work. In sessions she breaks down problems into manageable steps. That can mean practicing new ways of talking, testing small behavioral changes, or trying mindfulness-based exercises from acceptance and commitment therapy.
Stacy helps people strengthen everyday supports and coping techniques. She can be a steady resource for those sorting out what matters next and learning to live with difficult feelings rather than letting them take over.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take action around those values. It uses mindfulness and behavior change exercises to reduce avoidance and rebuild direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical experiments and homework to change unhelpful thinking and responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will review goals and preferences together and try methods that fit the client’s needs. That collaborative process lets them adjust techniques based on how the work feels and what leads to useful changes.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions may use less bandwidth and work better for quick follow-ups, while video sessions let the therapist observe body language and practice role-play exercises. Ask about the formats offered so you can pick what suits your routine.
