About Stacey

Stacey Polson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wyoming with 28 years of experience in mental health. She started her career working in middle schools and has since provided counseling to individuals, couples, groups, and people facing life transitions. Stacey aims to make the first step feel manageable and approachable for anyone who reaches out.

She uses a person-centered style where the client leads and she acts as a guide. Sessions focus on breaking problems into smaller steps, setting clear goals, and finding ways to meet those goals that fit day-to-day life. Stacey often helps clients notice how thoughts shape feelings and actions and then work on changing unhelpful patterns.

Common concerns Stacey addresses include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, self esteem, parenting and family conflict, career questions, and coping with major life changes. She also works with aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, body image, and postpartum concerns.

Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Developmental Psychology and a Master’s degree in Counseling, both from the University of Wyoming. Those academic foundations combine with years of school-based and community work to inform a practical, down-to-earth approach.

People who prefer a friendly, goal-oriented counselor often find her style helpful. She aims to support clients in building clearer thinking, stronger coping skills, and a more hopeful outlook as they navigate change.

How Stacey's Approaches Guide Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy is about following the client's lead and offering support without taking over. It helps when someone wants a collaborator to listen, reflect, and help set personal goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and shifting emotional responses in relationships and attachment, which can be useful for intimacy and connection struggles. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at small, practical steps and strengths to move forward quickly on specific problems like career decisions or coping with change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacey will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on how things are going.

The original biography did not specify which online session formats are provided, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins around work or caregiving, and making it easier to meet when schedules change. Licensed professionals can use a mix of goal-focused exercises, emotional reflection, and short practical tasks in remote sessions to keep progress moving without requiring a large time commitment.
