About Stacey

Stacey Harrell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana. She focuses on practical support for common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and parenting challenges. Her style is straightforward and respectful, aimed at helping people find manageable steps forward.

Stacey draws on twelve years of clinical experience in mental health, healthcare, and school settings. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. She also applies Motivational Interviewing to help people find reasons and energy to make changes.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize strengths and realistic coping skills. Conversations are tailored to each person’s needs, with concrete tools to try between meetings. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Stacey holds a Texas LCSW license number 109491 and a Louisiana LCSW license number 10703. Her approach blends structured techniques and open listening to help people move through life changes, grief, addiction concerns, or relationship and family stresses. People who choose Stacey can expect a practical, down-to-earth partnership.

She helps set small goals and checks in on how new strategies are working. Her work centers on helping clients build confidence and healthier habits over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around the client’s priorities. It helps people feel heard and builds a respectful working relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits.

The right approach is often discovered together. The therapist will work collaboratively to match techniques to a person’s goals, needs, and comfort level. Sessions may begin with a more open, listening style and add structured CBT or motivational techniques as progress is tracked.

Online therapy offers several flexible ways to meet including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage parenting or work demands, and keep continuity when life gets busy. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and check-ins to work well over these formats, helping clients practice new skills between sessions and stay connected to their goals.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
