About Staci

Staci Davis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Registered (LCSW-R) practicing in New York with 30 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, relationships, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, grief, career changes, and coping with life transitions.

Her approach is collaborative and practical. She uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused techniques to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions include talking through current problems, testing small changes, and reflecting on what works in daily life.

Staci often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behavioral experiments. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and track small wins. Those methods are used to address panic, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, communication problems, and family-related strains.

In sessions she helps people build coping skills they can use between meetings. That can mean simple tools for managing intense moments, steps to repair strained relationships, or plans to shift work-related pressure. The focus is on practical moves that reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Clients who reach out complete a brief intake and then work with Staci to set priorities. She emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes and supports people as they try new responses to recurring triggers.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT focuses on identifying and testing the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active. Online sessions can use guided exercises, homework tasks, and brief behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, panic, obsessive patterns, and reactive anger. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows in on practical goals and small changes. In virtual meetings that can mean setting specific steps, tracking short-term progress, and reinforcing successful strategies between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That choice is revisited as work progresses so techniques can be adjusted to what helps most.

Confirm session options before booking, because formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that virtual sessions let them practice new skills in the context of their everyday routines while keeping therapy manageable alongside family and work commitments.
