About Stacie

Stacie Story is a licensed professional counselor with 30 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She focuses on everyday struggles like low self-esteem, caregiver stress, relationship friction, and questions about life purpose. Her approach is gentle and straightforward, aimed at practical change rather than jargon.

She uses Client-Centered Therapy to make space for each person’s priorities and pace. That means conversations start with what matters most to the client and build from there. She also draws on tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help manage thoughts and emotions.

Stacie brings a faith-informed perspective when clients want it, and she pays special attention to women’s issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and family-of-origin patterns. She often works with caregivers who feel overwhelmed and people coping with isolation or major life shifts.

Sessions focus on improving communication skills, setting realistic goals, and finding better ways to handle stress and anger. She also supports people dealing with grief, postpartum depression, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, and intimacy-related issues.

Clients can expect collaborative, practical steps between sessions along with time to reflect. Stacie practices in South Carolina and speaks English. She aims to help people build stronger connections and clearer next steps for their lives.

Online approaches and how they help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s goals and perspective and helps build trust and clarity during conversation. It is useful for people who want their concerns heard first and a therapist who follows their lead.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical techniques for changing unhelpful habits. It can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and managing day-to-day stress.

Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as work progresses to keep sessions focused and useful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can combine conversational, skills-based, and solution-focused tools in remote sessions to address the same issues they would in person.
