About Stacy
Stacy Freeland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression. Stacy emphasizes practical steps clients can use to feel steadier in daily life.
She starts from the view that each person knows their own story best. Sessions focus on building on existing strengths and finding workable habits. Conversations are direct and goal-oriented, with room to notice what gets in the way of change.
Stacy uses several evidence-informed approaches to help people shift unhelpful patterns. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger, worry, or low mood. Mindfulness practices are used for grounding and reducing reactivity.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy strategies help people choose actions that match their values even when emotions are difficult. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change, such as with addictions or other sustained behavior shifts.
In sessions clients can expect clear feedback, practical tools, and short-term goals they can test between meetings. Stacy also addresses related concerns like sleep, relationships, work stress, and parenting strain. She invites people who want to manage anger or overwhelming emotion to try small, doable steps and check what works for them.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions. It focuses on choosing meaningful behaviors even when emotions are strong, which can be useful for anger and avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and gives concrete skills to test different responses. That can help with anxiety, depression, and managing impulse-driven reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and everyday life. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than prescribing a single path from the start.
If you plan to meet online, confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the contexts where their anger or stress happens and bring those experiences back into the session for discussion and problem solving.
