Stacey Werth-Sweeney, LMHP - Therapist in Nebraska

About Stacey

Stacey Werth-Sweeney is a licensed mental health practitioner (LMHP) in Nebraska with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and family matters. Stacey keeps sessions warm and interactive and aims to make conversations straightforward and useful.

She has worked with people across a wide range of difficulties, from everyday life stressors to histories of trauma and abuse. Her background includes supporting those coping with grief, addiction challenges, career uncertainty, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

She also addresses issues such as codependency, communication breakdowns, and blended family concerns. Stacey draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness alongside motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques. That mix lets her help people change unhelpful thinking, try small experiments, and practice simple skills between sessions.

She shapes the plan to fit each person’s situation rather than using the same steps for everyone. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Stacey aims to build on strengths and find realistic next steps that feel doable.

She encourages clients to try practical tools and then review what worked and what needs adjusting. For someone juggling family stresses, relationship strains, or recovery from past hurts, Stacey offers steady support and straightforward strategies. Her style is respectful and compassionate while keeping a focus on progress and problem solving.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Stacey uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that help manage stress and improve sleep. Motivational interviewing is another tool she uses to help people find their own reasons to change and to strengthen motivation for goals like reducing substance use or improving routines.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Stacey will listen to the client's concerns, discuss options, and tailor methods to match goals and preferences. The process is collaborative so clients help shape which techniques are tried and how quickly to move between them.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text messaging allow for flexibility around work, family, and caregiving demands. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to practice skills in real time between meetings. Stacey uses the available formats to maintain regular contact and to support steady progress toward goals.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

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.
