About Stacie
Stacie Story is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing family and parenting stresses, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what a parent or caregiver is living through. Her first concern is practical help that fits daily life.
For thirty years Stacie has worked with adults on issues like low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, relationship problems, and addiction. She also supports people dealing with trauma, bipolar disorder, depression, and anger.
Background and approach
Her practice pays particular attention to women's issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and the stress caregivers often carry. Stacie uses familiar, hands-on strategies in sessions. She focuses on clearer communication, coping tools for anxiety and stress, and step-by-step plans for change.
Sessions look at family of origin patterns, parenting challenges, and how to rebuild connection after loss or conflict. Therapy with Stacie mixes listening with practical exercises. She may use cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and solution-focused steps to set small goals.
Dialectical skills are offered when emotions feel overwhelming and steadier regulation is needed. People who work with her find an experienced clinician who combines professional skill with a compassionate viewpoint. Stacie aims to help clients feel more able to handle daily demands and to move toward clearer purpose.
She practices in South Carolina as an LPC, bringing a calm, relational style to each session.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities, offering a nonjudgmental space where the client guides what matters most. This approach helps people who need supportive listening and clearer self-understanding.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, identifies unhelpful thoughts and builds concrete skills to change reactions and behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and practical problem solving in daily life.
The right approach is often discovered together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps. Treatment is collaborative and flexible to personal preferences.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make sessions easier to fit into busy schedules. These formats allow continuity of care when travel, caregiving, or work make in-person visits difficult. Many clients find the variety of options helps them practice skills between sessions and stay connected with their therapist.
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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
