About Stacey
Stacey Shane-Nusbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, depression, and issues around self-esteem and identity. Men looking for support with life transitions, intimacy, grief, or parenting concerns may find her approach relevant to their needs.
Stacey draws from practical therapy methods rather than a single roadmap. She works with clients using techniques from cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance and commitment approaches, and skills-based strategies like dialectical behavior methods. Sessions often include developing coping skills, improving communication, and setting realistic goals that fit daily life.
Her background includes work in many settings such as telehealth, assisted living and skilled nursing, in-patient and out-patient addiction programs, clients' homes, and private practice offices. That variety shaped a flexible style for different ages and life situations, and informed how she adapts strategies to meet each person's circumstances.
Stacey emphasizes a person-centered and trauma-aware framework. She pays attention to cultural context, family systems, and the ways past experiences influence current patterns. Therapy combines practical skill teaching with exploration of underlying influences when that serves the client's goals.
Her manner is relaxed and compassionate, with room for humor when appropriate. She aims to build a working relationship where clients feel understood and can take active steps toward clearer priorities and better daily functioning.
How Stacey’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It helps people build a life that reflects what matters to them rather than chasing symptom-free days. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and patterns in current relationships and can help improve intimacy and emotional safety with others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns and manage anxiety, depression, or compulsive habits.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and how they react to different methods. Together they decide what to try first and adjust the plan as needed based on how things are going.
Many people find online therapy convenient for fitting help into busy lives. It can reduce travel time, make scheduling easier around work or family, and allow for shorter check-ins when useful. Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking to make sure they fit your schedule and needs. Online work still centers on building skills, improving relationships, and setting practical goals that carry into everyday routines.
