About Stacy
Stacy Uptain is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Nevada with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people who report stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Stacy focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions and straightforward ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Stacy asks questions to clarify what is most urgent and what patterns keep coming up. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that maintain distress. She also draws on the Gottman Method when relationship communication and trust are central concerns, and uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, testable goals and track progress.
Sessions are goal-oriented and structured. Stacy helps clients map simple experiments they can try in daily life, then reviews what worked and what didn’t. She emphasizes clear skills for managing anger, easing anxiety, improving communication, and lifting low mood.
Her approach is practical and direct. People who want concrete tools and clear steps often find this style helpful. Stacy encourages people to notice small changes and build on them over time.
Stacy works in Nevada and conducts sessions in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the site’s online options. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Stacy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot the thoughts and behavior patterns that keep problems going, then breaks those patterns into specific skills to practice. The Gottman Method is used when communication or trust is a central issue, with a focus on concrete interaction skills. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term, measurable goals and track small changes that feel useful.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Stacy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and what to try first, then adjust based on real progress and client feedback.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Some people find online meetings easier to attend during work breaks or between errands, or helpful when they prefer not to be on camera for a quick check-in. Confirm the current session options before booking so the chosen format fits your daily routine.
