Stacie Story, LPC

Stacie Story is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She aims to make sessions straightforward and practical so parents and busy adults can talk through what matters most in a few clear steps.

She draws on 30 years of experience working with concerns such as self-esteem, compassion fatigue, addictions, and depression. Her work often addresses family dynamics, communication problems, caregiving stress, and questions about life purpose. Stacie also supports people coping with postpartum challenges, aging and geriatric issues, and feelings of isolation.

Stacie uses a mix of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to meet people where they are. Sessions typically focus on practical skills, clearer thinking patterns, and techniques for managing strong emotions and difficult interactions.

Her style is compassionate and faith-informed, with attention to women’s issues and the strains caregivers face. In conversation she helps clients identify small, achievable changes and builds on strengths already present in their lives.

To begin, she asks people to describe their main concern, current routines, and short-term goals. From there she and the client shape a plan that fits daily life, whether the focus is on coping strategies, improving communication, or rebuilding a sense of purpose.

How her approaches translate to online work

Stacie draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in most conversations. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and building trust so people can name what matters most. CBT looks at thought patterns and behaviors and teaches practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your goals, preferences, and day-to-day routines to choose techniques that fit your life. That collaborative planning helps tailor sessions so they focus on the most useful skills for you.

If you are considering online options, confirm current session formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT skill teaching and client-centered conversations to remote formats while keeping attention on practical changes and emotion regulation.
