About Stacy

Stacy Uptain is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Nevada who brings 15 years of clinical experience to her work.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, and depression, while also addressing concerns such as abandonment, communication problems, divorce and separation, and issues around forgiveness, guilt, and shame. Stacy emphasizes clients' existing strengths and treats each person as the expert on their own life, partnering to build practical strategies and clearer direction.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the Gottman Method for relationship work, and Solution-Focused techniques to target thoughts, patterns, and actionable change. Stacy encourages those taking the first steps toward therapy, acknowledging that initiating care takes courage and framing the process as collaborative and strength-based.

She offers services in English and works with clients through a variety of online formats suited to individual needs and schedules.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Work

Stacy integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also applies the Gottman Method for clients addressing relationship challenges, using structured tools to improve communication and reduce conflict.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to explore goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, and then tailor a plan that may combine elements from CBT, the Gottman Method, and solution-focused techniques to meet those needs.

Online therapy with Stacy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to engage in skill-building, communication work, and problem-solving from locations that fit their lives, while maintaining continuity of care even when in-person sessions are not practical.
