Meet Stacey
Psychologist Fellow and Author
My commitment to helping people who have experienced trauma, similar to what I have faced, inspired me to pursue studies in clinical psychology. Currently, I am completing my postdoctoral fellowship at the Palo Alto VA Medical Center. Being a mother, grandmother, and a wife has enriched my life and deeply influenced my compassionate approach to therapy and writing.
​
My personal experiences, along with my dedication to trauma-informed care, fuel my passion for supporting survivors and fostering hope and healing through my work and writing.

My Approach to Therapy
Trauma-Informed Care (TIC)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
Compassion
Focused Therapy (CFT)
Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)
