About Stacie

Stacie Sylvester is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with 20 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, and related concerns.

Stacie offers straightforward, person-focused therapy. She centers conversations on what feels most urgent to the client and helps people name and track emotions. Sessions use practical tools and reflection rather than jargon. The goal is clearer thinking and more manageable next steps.

Her approach draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to strengthen how people relate to themselves and others. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that keep distress going. Emotionally-Focused ideas inform how feelings are explored in the room.

Stacie works with people dealing with relationship shifts, recovery from past harm, and struggles tied to shame or guilt. She helps clients sort out difficult memories and current choices, and practice different ways of responding to stress. Sessions include talk, reflection, and practical exercises people can try between meetings.

Clients in Kentucky can expect a clinician who combines experience and clear methods. She speaks English. If you want to start, follow the site process to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her methods translate to online work

Stacie integrates Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in a way that suits online sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape feelings and responses, which can help with guilt that ties to close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That collaboration can include trying a technique for a few sessions and adjusting based on how it feels and what matters most to the client.

The site process asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session, so practical matters are handled up front. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals often use online meetings to keep regular momentum between sessions without asking clients to rearrange large parts of their day.
