About Stacey

Stacey Shane-Nusbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, grief, and anger. She also addresses issues related to sleep, eating, intimacy, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and life changes.

Stacey uses several practical therapy methods and often combines approaches to match each person's needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), attachment-based work, and client-centered approaches. Sessions tend to focus on skills you can use between meetings and on understanding patterns that keep problems going.

Her background includes work in many settings, such as telehealth, assisted living and skilled nursing facilities, inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment, clients' homes, group programs, and private practice. That mix gives her experience with a range of life situations and cultural perspectives. She has provided individual therapy and group work across adult age ranges.

In sessions Stacey will talk through what brings you in, set reasonable goals, and introduce concrete tools to manage emotions and behavior. She balances active skills teaching with space to look at how past relationships and patterns show up now. Many people find this practical approach useful when they want to change how they respond to anger, stress, or conflict.

She invites questions about how therapy would fit into daily life and what to expect from early sessions. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's matching and scheduling steps to set up a first appointment.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting those thoughts run their behavior. It emphasizes values-based action and practical steps to act in ways that matter despite discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and on learning concrete skills to change them, which can be useful for anger, anxiety, and mood problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in close relationships and how early relational experiences shape reactions today, helping people understand why certain interactions trigger strong emotional responses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to test methods, track what helps, and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. That means sessions can shift from skills practice to exploration of relationship patterns as needed.

The original biography notes prior telehealth experience but does not list current session formats, so confirm which formats are offered before you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and reduce travel time. They also let people practice skills in real-life contexts between meetings. Discuss format options during the matching and scheduling steps so practical details fit your routine.
