About Staci

Staci DiMattia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey. She brings 17 years of direct therapy experience and offers down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, addiction, relationship turmoil, parenting strain, grief, and trauma. Staci aims to build a trusting connection where thoughts and feelings can be talked through without judgment.

She focuses on creating an open space so people can take steady steps toward clearer thinking and healthier choices.

Background and approach

Staci frames the work as a partnership that respects each person’s pace and goals. Her background includes long experience in varied clinical settings, giving her familiarity with substance use recovery, bipolar mood concerns, postpartum and pregnancy-related emotional challenges, and issues tied to family of origin. She also addresses blended family dynamics, codependency, first responder stress, and women’s issues.

In sessions she helps people break problems into manageable parts and develop practical tools for coping. That can look like practicing new ways to handle anger, building routines that ease anxiety, or developing strategies to navigate relationship stress. The focus is on useful skills you can apply day to day.

People who want straightforward guidance about parenting, career pressures, or life transitions often find this approach helpful. Staci supports people making changes related to substance use, intimacy difficulties, grief, and other common life challenges.

Online support

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Staci uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize clear steps and practical skills. One commonly used approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and replacing them with more balanced thoughts; this helps with anxiety, mood shifts, and stress. Another approach centers on behavioral changes and building routines - it supports recovery from substance use, mood management, and handling anger by practicing new habits in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to figure out which methods match their concerns, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s working, adjust techniques, and set small, achievable goals so progress feels meaningful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people see facial cues and use visual tools. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging support brief updates, homework discussion, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy family and work schedules and make consistent support easier to maintain.
