Stacey Christensen, LCSW

Stacey Christensen is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Stacey aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can begin to make changes.

She keeps conversations focused on each person's needs. Stacey tailors session content and a treatment plan to match what an individual is facing. She emphasizes practical steps people can try between meetings to help reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Stacey draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma responses, anxiety, and grief reactions. She helps people talk through difficult memories, manage panic or obsessive thoughts, and cope with loss or major life changes. Her approach is steady and person-centered rather than prescriptive.

In sessions she listens for patterns that cause extra stress, and then works with clients to test new habits and ways of thinking. Stacey also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, chronic illness, body image concerns, and the challenges that come with adoption or blended families.

She has three years of professional experience as an LCSW, and she approaches each case with sensitivity and respect. Stacey encourages anyone considering therapy to take the next step when they feel ready and to expect a collaborative process focused on clear, manageable goals.

How evidence-based methods fit into online therapy

Stacey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, anxiety, and grief. For trauma and post-traumatic stress she focuses on helping people process distressing memories and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life. For anxiety and panic she works on identifying thought patterns and teaching grounding and breathing strategies to manage intense moments.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Stacey will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their needs and goals. That means discussing what feels helpful, trying techniques in session, and adjusting the plan based on how things go together.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options with the therapist before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats may also be better for brief follow-ups or phone-style conversations, while others support longer face-to-face discussion when preferred. Verify available formats and schedule to find what fits your routine.
