About Stacy

Stacy Brown is a licensed counselor who uses practical therapy methods to help people handle stress and family challenges. She holds LPCC and LPC credentials and brings 16 years of clinical experience in Texas to each session. Stacy speaks English and works with clients both in the state and internationally.

She focuses on common life pressures like anxiety, eating and body-image concerns, anger, and grief. Parenting and family issues are a particular area of attention, and she also addresses relationship intimacy, career stress, and coping with major life changes.

Background and approach

Stacy works with concerns related to ADHD, trauma and abuse, bipolar conditions, and compassion fatigue as well. Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. Sessions emphasize concrete skills - for example, changing unhelpful thoughts, building emotional regulation tools, and practicing grounding exercises.

Conversations and treatment plans are adapted to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all script. Stacy aims to create a respectful space where clients can try different strategies and see what helps them most. She supports work on issues such as codependency, OCD symptoms, gender dysphoria, self-harm thoughts, and women’s concerns when relevant to the presenting goals.

The focus is on practical steps that make daily life more manageable. Therapy with Stacy can include coaching-style guidance and skill practice alongside traditional talk therapy. She frames progress as small, steady changes and partners with clients to identify realistic next steps.

Approaches and what online therapy offers

Stacy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as part of her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and support healthier habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Stacy will work together with each client to choose methods that fit personal goals, preferences, and everyday life demands. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels practical and doable rather than overly theoretical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, continue care while traveling or living abroad, and use shorter check-ins when full sessions aren’t needed. The focus is on making therapy accessible and flexible while supporting real, step-by-step changes.

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.

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.
