Stacey Strehle, LPC

Stacey Strehle is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of clinical experience in private practice and community mental health. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, or big life changes. Stacey also supports those managing ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma, and a range of other struggles. Her approach is practical and individualized. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered work, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. Sessions focus on small, doable changes - learning new ways to respond to thoughts, building helpful habits, and clarifying values and goals. Stacey aims to create a respectful, compassionate space. She listens closely and adjusts methods to match each person’s strengths and pace. That can mean practicing new skills during sessions or setting brief exercises to try between meetings. People come to her for help with specific problems like sleep or eating issues, parenting stress, career decisions, or impulsivity. She also addresses deeper themes such as family-of-origin wounds, abandonment, guilt, and body image concerns. Working with Stacey is presented as a collaborative process. She encourages clear goals and regular check-ins so people can see progress and shift course when needed. The focus is on useful tools and steady steps toward feeling more in control and more connected to what matters.

How Stacey’s approaches translate to online care

CBT helps people notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that make life harder. In online sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them with real-life experiments, and practicing alternative responses between appointments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult feelings are present. Work might include learning to sit with uncomfortable emotions, choosing actions that match personal values, and setting small steps toward meaningful goals. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Stacey collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what’s helpful. Online formats offer practical advantages. Video calls let the conversation feel most like an in-person visit and are useful for in-depth skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when a quieter or lower-bandwidth option is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, quick skills coaching, or people who prefer writing over talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping a regular rhythm of contact.
