About Stacey
Stacey Shane-Nusbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and mood concerns. She speaks plainly and aims to make therapy practical and understandable for busy parents. Stacey offers a calm, down-to-earth presence and focuses on clear steps you can try between sessions.
She uses a mix of evidence-based methods to meet people where they are. Sessions often include skill practice, gentle exploration of past patterns, and simple strategies for managing strong emotions.
Background and approach
Stacey avoids a one-size-fits-all approach and blends techniques based on what each person needs in the moment. Her background includes work in assisted living and skilled nursing, inpatient and outpatient addiction settings, clients' homes, independent practice, and telehealth. That range has shaped a flexible style that translates across different life stages and challenges.
Stacey emphasizes strengths, cultural context, and trauma-aware care when relevant. In therapy she helps people sort through grief, self-esteem concerns, communication problems, parenting stress, sleep and eating struggles, and substance or behavioral addictions. She also supports those dealing with trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and major life changes.
Her approach aims to reduce overwhelm and increase practical coping skills. Stacey describes her style as laid back and empathic. She encourages curiosity about the hows and whys of treatment when that helps motivation, but also supports a straightforward, skills-first path when preferred.
The goal is clear forward movement toward the client's priorities.

Telehealth approaches that meet you where you are
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by shifting attention toward what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships and helps people build safer ways of relating and communicating. This can be useful for intimacy issues and ongoing relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thought and behavior loops into concrete parts you can change with practice, which is helpful for anxiety, mood problems, and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they choose techniques and may mix approaches over time so therapy matches changing needs and momentum toward goals.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video sessions let you work face-to-face from different locations, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into a busy schedule, make follow-ups simpler, and let therapists and clients try different formats to see what helps most.
