About Stacy

Stacy Herman is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with seven years of experience. She began working in community settings and in school districts, and she focuses on helping people who are dealing with family conflict, parenting challenges, stress, anxiety, and depression.

She came to counseling after watching families struggle and deciding to help people find clearer ways to cope. Stacy earned a Master of Arts in Education from Chadron State College and shifted from school work to clinic settings to follow that calling. Her background includes supporting people affected by autism, communication problems, and self-esteem concerns.

Stacy favors a straightforward, down-to-earth approach. She listens first, then helps people notice how their thoughts shape their behavior. Sessions often involve talking through patterns and practicing small changes that make daily life easier.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including grief, anger, sleeping problems, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes. She also addresses issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and forgiveness.

People who want a compassionate listener who also offers practical tools may find her style helpful. Stacy aims to help clients build skills for handling relationships, parenting stress, and the everyday challenges that get in the way of feeling like their best self.

How therapy approaches shape online sessions

Stacy uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions in the moment so they can respond rather than react; this is helpful for stress, anxiety, and anger. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means she offers a listening, nonjudgmental space and follows the client's lead to set goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, appears in her work as a way to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete changes that improve mood and daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Stacy will talk with the client about goals and preferences and try different ways of working until there is a good fit. The plan can change as needs shift, and sessions are collaborative rather than prescriptive.

If you are considering online options, confirm the specific session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with Stacy during the matching process about how to schedule sessions that fit your routine and goals.
