About Stacey
Stacey Polson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wyoming with 28 years of counseling experience. She brings a calm, approachable style and focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and life transitions. Stacey aims to make starting therapy feel manageable and straightforward for visitors who are worried or unsure about the first step.
Stacey trained in developmental psychology and counseling at the University of Wyoming. She previously worked as a middle school counselor and has long experience supporting individuals, couples, and groups outside schools. That background shapes her practical, down-to-earth approach to everyday problems like job stress, self-esteem, and relationship conflicts.
In sessions she follows a person-centered stance where the client leads and she offers guidance. Stacey helps people break down problems into small steps, set realistic goals, and try manageable changes. She also draws on emotionally-focused ideas to look at relationship patterns and solution-focused techniques for quick, practical moves that make a difference.
People often seek her help with codependency, commitment and control issues, chronic illness or caregiving stress, body image, and challenges around pregnancy and postpartum. She also works with concerns common in midlife and aging, such as finding life purpose and coping with separation or divorce.
Her style is personable and often a little light-hearted when appropriate. Stacey encourages people to experiment with new ways of thinking and acting so they can begin to feel more in control and hopeful about the future.
How Stacey’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the client as the leader in the room. It helps people who need someone to reflect their feelings, clarify goals, and follow their pace. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at emotional patterns in relationships and helps people name and change interaction cycles that cause hurt or distance. Solution-Focused Therapy targets practical steps and small experiments to produce quick changes and build momentum.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacey will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts the pace and tasks as clients try ideas and report back on what works or doesn’t. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels doable and relevant to day-to-day life.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into busy routines. Online work can make it simpler to check in during a break, keep continuity when life is hectic, or continue progress between in-person options.
