About Stacey

Stacey Werth-Sweeney is a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner (LMHP) in Nebraska with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addiction issues, grief, sleep problems, self‑esteem struggles, and career difficulties. Stacey also addresses a range of related concerns such as codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and caregiver stress.

She uses cognitive behavioral approaches alongside mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution-focused, and trauma-focused methods. In sessions she focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns, practicing new skills, and setting clear, achievable goals. Conversations are practical and action oriented, with steps to try between meetings.

Stacey has experience across settings and has worked with people whose needs range from mild difficulties to persistent mental health challenges. That background informs how she structures sessions and sets priorities when problems are complex or long‑standing. She draws on several methods to match what someone needs in the moment.

Clients can expect structured sessions that include thought tracking, behavioral experiments, and brief skills practice. Stacey often integrates mindfulness exercises to help manage anxiety and sleep. Motivational interviewing is used when people want to change habits or address addictions and ambivalence.

Her practice is in Nebraska and sessions are conducted in English. To begin, users select the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How CBT and related approaches work for online sessions

Stacey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns that feed anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT breaks problems into clear steps - thoughts, feelings, and actions - and tests small changes to see what helps. Mindfulness Therapy is used alongside CBT to teach short attention and breathing exercises that reduce reactivity and support sleep and stress management. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels unsure about making a change; it focuses on values and small, practical steps to build motivation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Stacey will review symptoms, goals, and preferences and discuss which methods fit best. That conversation is collaborative and aims to set clear, achievable goals and decide on homework or between‑session practice that makes sense for daily life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. One practical benefit of online sessions is easier scheduling around work or caregiving, which can make it simpler to keep regular appointments. Online meetings can also allow shorter check‑ins or focused skill practice when that fits a person’s routine. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt tools like thought records and mindfulness exercises to remote sessions so people can practice skills in real time.
