About Stacey

Stacey Werth-Sweeney is a licensed mental health practitioner (LMHP) practicing in Nebraska with 15 years of experience.

Background and approach

She grounds her work in evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while drawing on complementary approaches to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, grief, and addictions. Her background includes helping clients manage career challenges, sleep difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Her style is warm, interactive, and person-centered, focusing on listening with respect and tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs. Stacey has experience working across a spectrum of symptom severity and in a variety of clinical settings, which informs a flexible approach when addressing complex issues like bipolar disorder, family dynamics, codependency, and forgiveness work.

She also offers support for concerns such as abandonment, body image, blended family issues, financial stress, and isolation. Stacey emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies to help clients move toward more fulfilling, resilient lives.

She frames therapy as a courageous first step and positions herself as a supportive guide for those ready to make changes and build coping skills.

How practical approaches translate to online therapy

Stacey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy appears in her practice to build present-moment awareness and coping strategies that support emotional regulation and stress reduction. Motivational Interviewing is also part of her toolkit to help people clarify goals and strengthen motivation for change, particularly when working through addictions or ambivalence about life changes.

Determining which approach or combination will best fit a client's needs is a collaborative process. She works together with each person to consider goals, preferences, and the nature of the concerns, then tailors interventions and pacing accordingly rather than prescribing a single method upfront.

Online delivery offers practical flexibility for those balancing work, family, or geographic constraints. Video calls and phone sessions allow for real-time conversation and therapeutic exercises, while live chat and text-based messaging can provide more frequent check-ins and tools between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and apply skills in day-to-day life without requiring travel.
