Stacy Walsh is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She brings an energetic and compassionate style to sessions and helps people tackle issues like stress, anxiety, parenting strain, and low self-esteem. Stacy's background includes work with child welfare and caregivers, and she draws on that experience to support people through life changes and trauma-related concerns.
Stacy earned a Master of Social Work at the University of Denver and holds LCSW and CSW credentials. She also trained as a Co-Active Coach and completed Brené Brown's Dare to Lead workshop, which informs her work around leadership, shame, and purpose. These influences shape a collaborative approach that balances goal-focused strategies with support for hard emotions.
In practice she uses client-centered techniques alongside solution-focused and motivational styles to help people set small, manageable goals. She also brings trauma-focused methods when past harm affects current functioning. Sessions aim to build strengths, reduce overwhelm, and identify concrete next steps the person can try between meetings.
Stacy has three years of clinical experience and has worked extensively in and around the child welfare system. That work included supporting people who experienced abuse or neglect and those caring for children who have experienced trauma. She also supports first responders facing compassion fatigue and work-related stress.
Outside of clinical work she is a spouse and mother to a toddler and a dog, and she welcomes people from diverse cultures and identities. To begin, the site matching process will help determine whether she might be a good fit for your concerns and goals.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building collaboration. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around what matters most to them, making it useful for issues like low self-esteem, parenting strain, and life transitions.
Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps and short-term goals. It is helpful when someone wants clear actions to reduce stress or make progress at work or home. Motivational Interviewing supports change by exploring a person’s own reasons and confidence for making a shift, which can be useful for career moves or addressing guilt and shame.
Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the work. Stacy will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then decide together which methods to try. That process is collaborative and can change over time as different priorities emerge.

It can also make scheduling around parenting or work commitments simpler, letting people access help without rearranging an entire day.
