About Stacy

Stacy Pierce is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who centers her practice on evidence-informed strategies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), to help people address a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

With 16 years of clinical experience, she focuses on issues such as stress and anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression, while also offering support around parenting concerns, career transitions, and self-esteem. Her work also encompasses areas like LGBT issues, family dynamics, anger management, and coping with major life changes.

Pierce approaches each person as the expert of their own story and draws on strengths already present to guide change. She integrates acceptance and commitment techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered principles to tailor care to individual needs.

Her practice includes helping clients navigate complex situations such as abandonment and attachment concerns, blended family issues, substance-related disorders, domestic violence, and medical-related stress like cancer. Prospective clients are encouraged to view beginning therapy as a courageous step, and she aims to offer collaborative support through the process.

Integrating therapeutic approaches through online care

Stacy commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and build practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasizes values-driven action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while working toward meaningful life goals. Both approaches are presented in accessible, practical terms to address issues like addictions, grief, and coping with major life changes.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts techniques over time so the work stays relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during transitions, balance therapy with work and family commitments, and access support from home while working toward personal goals with a licensed professional.
