About Stacey
Stacey Shane-Nusbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage anxiety, depression, stress, relationship struggles, addictions, grief, and parenting challenges. She brings 11 years of clinical experience and works with many life changes and identity concerns such as LGBT issues, self-esteem, trauma, eating and sleeping problems, and ADHD. Her style is relaxed and conversational.
She uses plain language and practical skills. Stacey aims to help people feel heard, understood, and able to take small steps toward their goals.
How Stacey works
In sessions she mixes therapy approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws from acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, attachment-focused work, dialectical behavior tools, and a client-centered stance. That lets her teach coping skills, explore relationship patterns, and support emotional regulation.
Stacey has worked in many settings across Florida, including telehealth, assisted living, inpatient and outpatient addiction programs, home visits, and independent practice. That variety informs how she adapts strategies to real life and complex medical or caregiving situations. She tends to emphasize collaboration and choice.
People who prefer practical skill-building can focus on that. Others who want to understand patterns from the past can do deeper work. Sessions are paced to match the person’s preferences and goals.

How Stacey’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, chronic stress, and life changes where avoidance keeps someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns, which helps with depression, anxiety, and some behavioral concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions, helping people with intimacy, communication, and relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Stacey will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they’ll try interventions and adjust the plan so it fits the person’s needs and pace.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let therapists and clients work face to face for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when video isn’t practical or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, skill reminders, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or medical needs.
