Stacie Armstrong , LPC

Stacie Armstrong is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and addictions. She also supports concerns around intimacy, sleep, self-esteem, career shifts, and coping with major life changes. Her work often includes issues common to women's lives and transitions. She creates a calm space where clients can speak honestly without judgment and begin making practical changes.

Her style is straightforward and warm. She listens first, then helps people name what matters most. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, like managing intense emotions, improving daily routines, and setting goals for work and relationships.

Stacie draws from several approaches to match each client's needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take small steps toward them. Cognitive behavioral strategies help identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new behaviors. Attachment-informed work looks at how past relationships shape current patterns.

She blends these methods into clear, doable plans. For someone facing burnout, grief, or shifting life roles, she helps break problems into bite-sized tasks. For people dealing with mood symptoms or addictions, she focuses on consistency and skills that reduce distress.

Stacie holds LPC licenses in Texas and Arkansas and works with adults across a wide range of concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Stacie often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small meaningful steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck and committing to actions that match personal goals.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thinking that lead to unhelpful feelings and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and teaches concrete skills for changing thoughts and routines, which can help with anxiety, mood, and sleep issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She treats approach selection as a team effort and will adjust methods based on a client's goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide which techniques fit best and make a plan to practice skills between sessions.

Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or when a shorter, more immediate contact suits a busy schedule.

These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while keeping the focus on consistent, practical steps toward change.
