She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Stacey focuses on practical support and straightforward conversation to help people manage difficult emotions and situations.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions.

She also has experience with forgiveness work and feelings of guilt or shame.
In session, Stacey talks through options and practical steps people can try between meetings. She adapts discussion and plans to match what the person says is most useful. The overall approach centers on working toward better daily functioning and managing symptoms that interfere with routine life.
People who value straightforward, problem-focused conversations may find her style fits well. Sessions are conducted in English and follow the practice patterns of an NC LCSW.
How her evidence-based approaches work online
Stacey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and symptom management. One common approach she draws on emphasizes learning specific coping strategies for anxiety and panic attacks, such as breathing and grounding techniques, stepwise exposure to feared situations, and planning for small achievable goals. These methods help people reduce avoidance and increase confidence handling social situations and stressful moments.Another approach centers on processing trauma and related reactions. This involves pacing conversations about difficult memories, identifying triggers, and developing tools to manage reactions when they occur. It can support people coping with past abuse, loss, or ongoing stressors like caregiver strain or serious illness.
Finding the right therapeutic method is part of the work. Stacey collaborates with each person to decide which techniques to try first based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan over time and checks in about what is or isn’t helpful.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, remote therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to continue focused, tool-oriented work that fits into everyday life without changing the core therapeutic aims.
