About Stacy
Stacy Freeland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. She uses straightforward care to help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and other challenges. Stacy emphasizes each person's strengths and practical steps toward change.
She works from a few core approaches that focus on real-life skills. That can mean learning new ways to handle strong emotions, shifting thought patterns that get in the way, or building actions that match personal values.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and aim to leave people with tools they can use between appointments. Stacy has four years of clinical experience and has supported people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and grief. She also helps clients facing ADHD, sleep and eating concerns, career stress, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Anger management is a listed focus and she helps people find safer ways to respond when anger becomes a problem. Her practice includes attention to relationship and communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, and life transitions like divorce or separation. Stacy also addresses needs related to aging, chronic illness, and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome.
She frames work as a partnership where the client’s goals guide the pace. People can expect a calm, practical approach that mixes conversation with exercises. Sessions can include mindfulness practice, values-based planning, and steps to reduce unhelpful thinking patterns.
Stacy supports clients as they try new behaviors and track progress over time.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for managing mood, anxiety, anger, and life changes by focusing on what matters most and taking small steps toward those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that cause distress. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pace, using empathic listening to help people feel heard and make their own changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on progress and feedback.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and exercises, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule appointments, keep momentum after a session, and use tools that suit different lifestyles.
