About Stacey
Stacey Shane-Nusbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 11 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, trauma, grief, parenting stresses, anger, bipolar symptoms, and ADHD. She also addresses issues related to intimacy, eating and sleeping problems, and life changes.
Stacey draws from several practical therapy methods rather than a single school of thought. Sessions focus on learning clear skills, trying different ways to respond to intense feelings, and making straightforward plans to reduce conflict and simmering resentment. She uses both short-term strategies and longer-term work depending on what a person needs.
Her approach mixes acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based perspectives, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral tools, and DBT skills when helpful. That means there is room for discussing values, looking at relationship patterns, practicing emotional regulation skills, and testing new behaviors between sessions. Stacey often combines techniques from more than one approach as progress requires.
She has experience in varied settings including telehealth, assisted living and skilled nursing facilities, inpatient and outpatient addiction programs, clients' homes, and private practice. That range informs how she adapts sessions to everyday life and to different stressors people bring in.
Stacey aims for a relaxed, direct style. Sessions may include problem-solving, skill practice, and reflection about past patterns that keep repeating. The work is practical and geared toward reducing angry outbursts, lowering built-up resentment, and improving communication with others.
How Stacey’s therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice hard feelings without being driven by them and clarify what matters most. It is useful for reducing reactivity and making choices that match personal values rather than impulsive anger. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful thinking and reduce emotional escalation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication in strained relationships.Finding the right combination of these approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress or obstacles appear. Expect to discuss what helps most in real life and to test different skills between sessions.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in their everyday environment. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and communication strategies to online visits so the work stays practical and relevant.
