Stacy Sechrist, LCSW

Approaches that blend thinking and body-centered work for online care

Stacy often uses cognitive techniques that help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new ways of responding. These methods are useful for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem because they teach clear steps to shift thoughts and behaviors.

She also draws on somatic and mindfulness-based methods that focus on how the body holds stress. Those approaches include simple breathing and grounding skills and help when anxiety, chronic pain, or overwhelm show up as physical sensations.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist and client set goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what fits the person's needs and preferences. This collaborative process helps pick tools that feel useful in everyday life.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can support quick check-ins, and messaging is useful for short updates or continued reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to choose a format that matches the kind of work a person wants to do.
