I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Texas. I have been practicing since 1995, most of this time in Community Mental Health Programs. I have worked with many issues of concern to my clients, ranging from serious mental illness to life choices. I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, elderly individuals, couples and groups. In 2005, I opened my private practice and kept it open full time until 2020. During the pandemic, my clientele reduced due to my choosing to begin telehealth sessions instead of face-to-face sessions. I am residing in a smaller city and most of the population is not comfortable with tele-health so I decided to continue at a reduced capacity as long as possible. In early 2021, I accepted the vaccine in an effort to revive my practice but became ill due to complications. I stopped practicing for approximately 3 months, until I could be sure that I was feeling well enough to provide my clients with the services they deserved. In December 2021, I tested positive with the virus and became very ill. I am now practicing through Better Help rather than begin my solo private practice again. I am competent in the use of Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Client-Centered, and Transpersonal therapies. I specifically focus on hypnotherapy, meditation, and inner child support in the Transpersonal therapies. Each of these therapies are used based on the treatment plan which is derived from the problems or concerns that the client defines as their choice for treatment and the goal they wish to reach. In working with couples, the goal is to enhance healing independently and interdependently. I believe that we are attracted to someone who fits like a lock and key with ourselves. This engages our personal issues so that our significant other becomes the rock upon which we break ourselves and then heal through positive communication techniques, compromise and negotiation. I believe that each person is unique and the path for growth of each person can only be determined by themselves, or jointly, for couples. My role in the support of my clients is to lend them my knowledge, feedback and guidance as they grow through the process of the journey. Each client has the right to self-determination and respect and can refuse any treatment suggestion without fear of consequences. I am honored to assist you in your choice of becoming the best version of yourself, and, if appropriate, as a union of two creating a separate identity while maintaining each individually.

Hi, I’m Stacie — a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC). I became a therapist after a lifelong journey of living with and overcoming chronic illness and pain. That experience gave me deep empathy for others navigating similar challenges — the physical pain, emotional toll, and often invisible weight that can come with it. I’m passionate about supporting individuals who live with chronic pain, disabilities, and long-term health conditions, as well as those facing substance use challenges, anxiety, and life transitions. My goal is to help clients find hope, self-compassion, and practical ways to cope — even when life feels heavy or uncertain. I believe healing is not one-size-fits-all. In sessions, I can integrate creative expression and simple art-based techniques (like card making) to help clients process emotions and find calm. Whether we’re working through trauma, loss, or daily stressors, I strive to create a space that’s safe, genuine, and empowering. If you’re ready to move toward healing — at your own pace and with someone who truly understands the ups and downs of the journey — I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

For more than a decade, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals, couples, and families move through some of the hardest seasons of their lives. I work with clients who experience a wide range of symptoms and concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and ADHD. I also have experience working with people who are experiencing burnout, and overwhelm with life transitions. My passion is guiding clients out of survival mode and into a place of clarity, connection, and emotional resilience. I specialize in solution-focused and emotionally focused therapy—two powerful, research-based approaches that help clients quickly identify what’s not working and begin making meaningful change. I aim to create a space where every person feels safe, seen, and heard. My clinical lens is deeply systemic, meaning I help clients understand not just what they feel, but why—considering relationships, identity, culture, and life experience. From there, we work together to build healthier communication, stronger boundaries, and practical strategies that support long-term healing and growth. Clients often describe me as honest yet compassionate, grounding yet empowering. I believe therapy should be both reflective and forward-moving. Yes, we explore the roots—but we also build the tools. I look forward to working with you!

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Port Aransas is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
