I work with college students and young adults who are struggling to adjust to college life, feeling lonely, having difficulty making friends, or feeling like they don’t quite fit in.

I provide an affirming, supportive space for LGBTQIA+ students and those exploring identity, belonging, and relationships during this important stage of life.

Well, if you are here, welcome! I am Stacey. I know it’s a journey to find the right therapist, and I’m glad you found your way to TheraHope. Most of my clients tell me, "You really get me" because I understand that being a student right now is heavy. We will work together to navigate the symptoms that weigh you down - like a racing mind or total shut down but also the daily drama with friends, parents and partners that drains your battery. If you are carrying past trauma, we will work together to navigate that negative self-talk and truly understand the "why" behind how you are feeling. We will create a game plan at your pace. My goal is to help you stop just "surviving" the semester and actually start feeling like yourself again. I really do care about my clients and I hope you decide to join this therapy road with me! Reach out today!

A lot of the students I work with are in the middle of figuring things out. They may be adjusting to college, navigating changing friendships and relationships, balancing academic and personal responsibilities, or trying to manage anxiety, depression, and the pressure that comes with major life changes. I have a special passion for supporting women and female-identifying students as they navigate concerns like self esteem, identity, relationship challenges, boundaries, stress, and the many transitions that come with young adulthood. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, questioning your next steps, or struggling to prioritize your own needs, therapy can be a place to feel supported while building confidence and resilience. Through WellQor, I provide online therapy that can fit into a busy student schedule, and WellQor accepts most major insurance plans to help make care more accessible. I enjoy helping women develop healthier coping skills, strengthen their sense of self, improve relationships, and move through life's challenges with greater clarity and self compassion. I believe most people are doing the best they can with the tools they currently have. Therapy can be an opportunity to develop new tools, gain perspective, and better understand the patterns that influence your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. My role is not to tell you what direction to take, but to help you feel more confident navigating your own path. If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply looking for support during a challenging season of life, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we'll create a space where you can slow down, reflect, and build the confidence to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.

As a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 20 years of experience, I have worked with individuals from many different backgrounds and life stages, helping them navigate challenges related to stress, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and personal growth. Throughout my career, I've worked in a variety of settings, including military and veteran healthcare, behavioral health programs, and private practice, which has given me a broad perspective on the many ways people experience and respond to life's challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based care. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable exploring your experiences, gaining new perspectives, and developing skills that support your well-being both now and in the future. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply looking for support during a period of growth and change, I strive to create an environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

One of the greatest joys I have in life is the privilege of walking beside clients on their journey to healing and wellness. I work hard to provide clients with a safe and comfortable space where they can address the issues of importance to them. I view myself as a fellow traveler whose role it is to collaboratively create a map to get clients where they desire to go. No two clients are the same, and no two maps are the same. Each experience with clients is new and deserves a fresh approach which is based on your needs, not mine. I work hard to get to know you, your story, your goals, your strengths, and your growing edges. I hope each and every client leaves the session feeling heard, valued, and respected. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I work with individuals, couples, and families from a systemic point of view. I work with clients to figure out where the various puzzle pieces fit inside their lives and relationships. I have earned a Masters and PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, and along the way have taken extra training in a variety of areas. I am a sex therapist, a clinical sexologist, a certified sex addiction therapist, a certified partner trauma therapist, and a Gottman Level 3 trained therapist. I invest in the best training in order to provide you with the best tools. Clients come to me to work on issues of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, recovering from sexual assault/sexual abuse, and for exploring issues of sexual identity or sexuality issues. I am comfortable working with individuals, couples, and entire families — and I am comfortable working with adolescents and adults. I am in-network with several insurance panels. In working with couples, I primarily utilize the Gottman Method Couples Therapy. This approach to therapy is one of the most well researched and effective approaches to helping couples resolve issues, increase connection, improve communication, and gain a better understanding of how relationships work. When I am not in the office, you can usually find me hanging out at home, tending the garden, collecting eggs from the chickens, caring for our goats, harassing our dogs and cats, or harassing my very patient wife and very tolerant adult children. I sometimes get to play golf (and sadly lose A LOT of balls). And I enjoy working with various local groups such as the Human Rights Coalition of Alachua County, the Human Rights Council, the PRIDE Center, and working to help make our community a safe place for all people. Licensed in or able to provide telehealth services in the following states: Delaware, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Utah, Virginia

Our approach emphasizes the relationship between individual wellness and social justice – knowing deeply that individual wellness can be better leveraged in a society that is well. We know radical inclusion requires an openness to radical transformation and through ongoing evolution, we can build healthier and more inclusive societies where everyone can be fully human.

Therapy is not always easy. But that doesn't mean it is without joy. In therapy, we get to come to an appreciation of both joy and sorrow that are the consequences of living a fully human life. Through appropriate challenge and support, we are able to expand the range of our humanity and our participation in the world. My approach is grounded in brief psychodynamic models of treatment. I believe that therapy can help make us conscious of the adjustments we have made to cope with our life circumstances and can shine a light on new possibilities towards greater authenticity. I continually seek to improve my own utility as a therapist, and I read voraciously towards that end. My understanding of psychology, sociology, and social work provide not only a foundation for understanding client struggles, but also a basis from which to conceptualize growth and solutions.

I enjoy working with neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families, including those with autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, and other disabilities. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or struggling with emotional regulation, relationships, school, or daily life demands. Together, we create a neuroaffirming space where clients can better understand themselves, build on their strengths, develop practical coping skills, and find approaches that honor the way their brains naturally work. As an art therapist and former elementary school art teacher, I offer a creative, person-centered approach tailored to each client's needs. I incorporate art therapy, sandtray therapy, play therapy, DBT, CBT, and solution-focused techniques to support emotional growth, self-understanding, and meaningful change. I believe healing happens when people are given space to show up as they are. You don't need artistic experience, perfect words, or everything figured out to begin therapy. If you're looking for a compassionate, collaborative space to explore challenges and strengths, I'd be honored to support you.

Beginning the work of therapy can bring up many emotions, and I am here to be with you through all of them. I approach therapy with reverence for your lived experience, nervous system, and desires for the future. I specialize in working with teenagers through adults to address concerns related to anxiety, depression, life transitions big or small, religion and identity, and family of origin issues. I’m passionate about working with parents to explore their own histories and ties to the present, as well as individuals seeking to understand their experience of neurodivergence or that of a loved one. I utilize a psychodynamic approach and draw from relational-cultural theory, polyvagal theory, and internal family systems. This means we will wonder together about the ways past experiences and relationships impact you in the present emotionally, mentally, and physically. I'm deeply committed to maintaining an anti-racist, neurodiversity-affirming, and queer-affirming practice, considering clients and their challenges in the context of oppressive systems. I know how challenging it can be to find a therapist who feels like a good fit, and I'd love to connect with you if anything in my approach resonates with your experiences.

As a Licensed School Counselor and Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I know each of us face challenges, life transitions, and pain.

I work with clients to bring meaning and understanding to how their thoughts, beliefs and life experiences impact their actions and related outcomes. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Theory, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Exposure Response Prevention principles and interventions to encourage insight and behavioral change. I know seeking therapy and finding a therapist is a risk that feels scary to many. My goal is to honor that bravery, hold space for anything you bring to the table, and help you move forward in a safe and comfortable environment.
