She has helped children, adolescents, and adults navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns.

She meets people where they are and shapes each session to the person's needs.

Stacee emphasizes practical steps alongside careful listening so clients can move toward clearer goals.

Her approach draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to strengthen relationships and sense of safety.

Narrative methods are sometimes used to reframe difficult stories.

Parents often find her practical style helpful when managing behavioral struggles or adjusting after adoption or family changes.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating and safety in relationships. Online sessions can use this approach to look at how early relationships affect current bonds and to practice new ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, offering listening, reflection, and support to help people find their own solutions and clarify goals.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding skills that reduce overwhelm and improve emotional awareness. These techniques are easy to practice between sessions and can be guided just as well in conversation as in person.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences and adapt methods accordingly. Together they decide which approaches to prioritize and adjust as progress is made.

The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice new skills in the settings where they live and parent, helping changes carry over into daily life.
