About Stacie

Stacie Whitehead is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with 11 years of professional experience.

Background and approach

She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and issues around self-esteem and motivation, drawing on a strength-based view that centers the client's knowledge of their own life. Stacie approaches each case with the belief that clients bring important resources and resilience that can be mobilized to address current difficulties.

Her work also addresses attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, communication and control issues, fertility-related stress, isolation, jealousy, life purpose, veteran and armed forces issues, mood disorders, and cultivating self-love. Stacie uses evidence-informed methods to help people build practical coping tools, improve relationships, and reconnect to values that matter to them.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process and supports clients through the courage it takes to pursue meaningful change.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Access

Stacie draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can be useful for addressing anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who are ambivalent about change by exploring values and strengthening internal motivation in a collaborative way. Solution-Focused Therapy features in her work as well, offering brief, goal-oriented strategies that focus on building practical steps toward desired outcomes.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Stacie works with clients to determine what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She frames therapy as a partnership and adapts techniques to align with each person’s priorities, helping them test helpful changes and refine strategies together.

Online therapy with Stacie uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for scheduling and different communication styles. These remote options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy lives and allow clients to access licensed professionals from their own locations.
