About Stacey

Stacey Strehle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 11 years of clinical experience in independent practice and community mental health.

Background and approach

She focuses on a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, coping with life changes, ADHD, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting, anger, career challenges, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Additional areas of attention include abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, fertility concerns, and impulsivity. Her work emphasizes individualized care that draws on cognitive behavioral strategies alongside acceptance and commitment, client-centered, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques.

Stacey approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring interventions to match a client's strengths and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. She aims to create a collaborative process that supports clients as they explore change and build practical skills.

Stacey frames therapy as a courageous step toward greater fulfillment and resilience, and she focuses on empowering clients through encouragement and skill development. Her practice offers a thoughtful blend of evidence-informed methods and client-led pacing to help people navigate life transitions and emotional challenges.

Online approaches that combine skills and values

Stacey draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete skills for managing symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, and sleep disruption. She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy to guide people in clarifying personal values, learning acceptance strategies for difficult thoughts and feelings, and taking committed action toward meaningful goals. Both approaches emphasize practical exercises that can be used between sessions to build momentum and resilience.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Stacey treats that as a collaborative decision. She listens to each client's concerns and preferences, discusses different methods, and adapts techniques over time so the plan aligns with goals and comfort levels rather than imposing a single method from the start.

Online therapy with Stacey makes use of multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit into busy schedules. These options let clients engage in therapy from home or other convenient locations, maintain continuity through life transitions, and choose the communication style that best supports their progress.
