Stacey Herrera , LCSW

Stacey Herrera is a licensed clinical social worker who practices in Texas. She holds an LCSW and has five years of clinical experience helping people manage relationship and family challenges. Stacey focuses on women's issues among other concerns and aims to offer respectful, practical care.

She helps people navigate relationship strain, family conflict, blended family issues, and communication problems. Stacey also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, sexual trauma, domestic violence, and related post-traumatic stress concerns. She works with those facing depression, anxiety, stress, anger, and problems with substance use.

Her approach is direct and collaborative. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs, so conversation and the plan change as progress is made. Stacey uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused work to address thoughts and patterns that keep people stuck.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing to build coping skills and to strengthen motivation for change. Solution-focused strategies are used when clients want concrete steps and short-term goals. Stacey prioritizes dignity, respect, and compassion in sessions.

Stacey encourages people who are ready to take the first step to reach out. She explains options, listens to each person’s goals, and helps set clear next steps. The aim is steady progress toward a more manageable, satisfying life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Stacey uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety, depression, and relationship conflict. CBT focuses on practical tools and small experiments people can try between sessions to see what helps.

She also draws on trauma-focused therapy to address the effects of past abuse or traumatic events. That work slows things down, focuses on safety and coping skills, and helps people process memories and reactions at a manageable pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Stacey will discuss options, listen to your goals, and recommend strategies that fit your needs and preferences. Clients and therapist choose the path collaboratively and adjust it over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexible options. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be used when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief daily check-ins or ongoing notes between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and life schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress.
