About Stacey

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience, Stacey Gooden helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and life changes. She also focuses on feelings tied to abandonment, guilt and shame, loneliness, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety and phobia. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients.

Stacey uses practical tools from cognitive and relaxation strategies alongside parts work and trauma-focused methods. She integrates faith-based perspectives through Christian counseling when clients want that included. In sessions she listens, helps sort thoughts and emotions, and works toward clearer coping steps people can try between meetings.

Her approach mixes skill-building with deeper trauma work. Cognitive strategies identify unhelpful thinking patterns and offer alternative ways to respond. Relaxation techniques teach simple practices to reduce immediate physical tension and anxiety.

Parts work, sometimes called IFS, helps people notice different internal parts and develop a more steady, compassionate leadership toward them. Trauma-focused interventions are used to address long-standing or overwhelming memories and their effects on daily life.

Stacey offers an initial short phone consultation to discuss goals and fit. She asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Payment follows a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. Confirm current session options before booking to be sure the format fits your needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Stacey uses a mix of evidence-based techniques. Cognitive strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing alternative responses, which can reduce anxiety and change unhelpful behavior patterns. Relaxation techniques teach breathing, grounding, and body-based skills to calm physical tension and ease stress in daily life. Parts work, often called IFS, helps people notice and relate to different internal parts with curiosity so they can reduce internal conflict and increase self-direction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, life demands, and preferences. That conversation normally happens early in care and can change as needs shift over time.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats. Please confirm the available formats before booking so you know which options are offered. Online work can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into a regular routine, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so sessions can happen around other commitments.
