About Stacy

Stacy Mitchell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of clinical experience in California. She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, and the daily challenges that undermine confidence and motivation.

Background and approach

Stacy emphasizes collaborative work that respects each person’s perspective while helping them build skills to navigate relationship strain, grief, addictive behaviors, sleep difficulties, and ADHD-related struggles. Her approach centers on empowering clients to identify strengths and create workable solutions that fit their lives.

Stacy has supported individuals facing trauma and abuse, intimacy and family conflicts, parenting and life-transition issues, and concerns around self-esteem, isolation, and life purpose. She frames therapy as a partnership in which clients are treated as the experts of their own experience while she offers guidance, structure, and tools drawn from her training.

Stacy welcomes people exploring personal growth and change and aims to provide a compassionate, respectful environment that encourages resilience and skill development. Her practice balances practical coping strategies with attention to deeper emotional healing so clients can move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Applying CBT Online for Practical Change

Stacy draws primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a goal-focused approach that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties, low self-esteem, and symptoms often reported with ADHD by teaching practical coping strategies and behavioral experiments.

Therapy is a collaborative exploration and Stacy approaches treatment planning as a shared process. She works with clients to clarify goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what proves most helpful. This collaborative stance helps ensure the chosen strategies fit each person’s needs, preferences, and life circumstances.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from California without commuting, support skill practice between sessions, and allow clients to choose the way of interacting that best suits their daily routines and therapeutic goals.
