About Stacie
Stacie Byers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with 29 years of experience in mental health. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and career-related concerns such as imposter syndrome. Her work also addresses parenting strain, sleep problems, grief, and the emotional impact of chronic illness and caregiving.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based and client-centered approaches to look at how emotions and relationship patterns affect daily life. Sessions focus on naming hard-to-identify feelings, noticing patterns that repeat, and practicing new ways of relating to oneself and others. Stacie also draws on cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior strategies when they fit a person’s needs.
In practical terms she talks through what’s happening now and looks at past experiences that shape current reactions. She helps people build skills to manage intense emotions, reduce worry, and improve communication. Conversations are adjusted to each person’s situation rather than following a fixed script.
Stacie works with concerns such as abandonment and attachment issues, family of origin problems, control and impulsivity, guilt and shame, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with divorce or separation, fatherhood issues, and end-of-life or hospice related stress.
Her approach aims to find what helps each person move forward with clearer thinking and steadier emotion. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session so they can see if her style fits their needs.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and reshaping emotional responses and relationship patterns. It helps when strong emotions or attachment needs make it hard to respond differently in difficult moments. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds and ongoing relationships influence reactions today and helps people notice and change those patterns.Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's experience and choices. It emphasizes listening and reflecting so the person can make sense of their feelings and decide what next steps feel right. Together these approaches help surface emotional patterns, practice new responses, and build clearer thinking about relationships and self-management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences and adjust techniques as needed. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize EFT, attachment work, or other methods such as CBT or DBT skills.
