About Stacie
Stacie Armstrong is a licensed professional counselor with 20 years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, mood changes, or low self-esteem. She also supports those managing ADHD, addiction, sleep problems, and intimacy-related concerns.
She keeps sessions straightforward and respectful. Stacie aims to create a calm space where people can talk freely about their thoughts and feelings. She encourages small, practical steps that fit into daily life rather than quick fixes.
Background and approach
Her approach blends storytelling and behavior-focused tools. Narrative ideas help clients reframe problem-filled stories about themselves. Cognitive and acceptance-based methods offer skills to manage difficult thoughts and emotions.
Attachment ideas guide work on relationship patterns and how past experiences shape present connections. Sessions are client-centered, so the person’s goals steer the work rather than a fixed agenda. Stacie has practiced in Texas and Arkansas and brings two decades of clinical experience to common life challenges.
She listens for strengths people may overlook and helps build on them. The focus is on realistic change and practical coping skills. Stacie often combines longer talks with brief skill practice between meetings.
That mix helps people try new responses in real situations and then review what worked. The tone is steady, patient, and practical to help people move toward more balanced days.

Online session options
How narrative and skills-based approaches work online
Stacie draws on Narrative Therapy to help people notice the stories they tell about themselves and try new ways of framing problems. Narrative work can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, attachment wounds, and feelings of being stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, complements this by teaching simple strategies to accept difficult emotions while moving toward meaningful actions. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and stress when avoidance gets in the way.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Stacie will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can shift over time based on what feels most helpful in sessions and between meetings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make brief updates and ongoing support possible between meetings. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
