www.staceystetsontherapy.com I have been trained in applied behavioral analysis, internal family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy which provides a safe and secure environment to create insight, awareness and growth. By gaining awareness into automatic thoughts and feelings we can gain insights into our behaviors and create space for our choices. My practice is a confidential and judgement free setting where you can have a selfish hour to focus on yourself and care for yourself. Mental health is the best form of self care you can practice.

Taking the first step and seeking help is oftentimes the most difficult decision one must make. Finding the right therapist for you or your family isn't easy. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and that the therapist plays an active role in the treatment. Therefore, finding the right match -someone with whom you have a sense of rapport- is critical. My view of a patient is beyond a set of symptoms. Each client is a unique person who brings his or her particular experiences, strengths, and vulnerabilities.

My approach involves exploration of past experiences & beliefs while growing a narrative toward your aspirations. I believe in tailoring the therapeutic process utilizing traditional & creative methods. Using psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches, I aim to provide a deep & spontaneous therapeutic experience in a warm, understanding & safe environment

Chronic pain and illness can have a significant impact on the lives of those living with it. They can take a toll on mental and emotional wellbeing, relationships, and the way we feel about ourselves. People often describe feeling frustrated with their body, unable to keep up with day to day tasks, or anxious for when they may feel unwell again. Interactions with the medical system and insurance companies can be exhausting and traumatic. Pain and illness can play a big part in our relationship dynamics; creating challenges with the people we care about most who want to help but don't seem to understand or know how.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC), as well as a licensed certified alcohol and drug counselor (LCADC). For over a decade I have been working with adolescents, adults, and families utilizing an eclectic, holistic approach. I work with clients helping to foster the mind/body connection. Together we nurture this connection in order to promote balanced, well-rounded mental health. I received my Bachelor's Degree from Washington University in St. Louis and my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Long Island University.

My view on successful psychotherapy is that it provokes insight, motivation and productivity for you, not only in session but out in life. Together we create a purely confidential, client-focused relationship to distinguish your desired outcomes. Then, using a blend of mind-body and cognitive-behavioral techniques, we explore your thoughts and how they shape the way you feel and behave. We also develop new patterns of thought and behaviors to create the way you want your life to be. Lifestyle behaviors such as diet, exercise, self-care and social interaction also come into play as they shape the whole person.

Welcome! I’m glad your journey has brought you here today. Do you feel like you’re hiding the real you? Do you worry that you make decisions based more on other people’s approval rather than your own sense of truth? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and your relationships? Do you desire to live your most authentic life? Maybe you don’t know what it looks like. You might even feel afraid to find out. Life can feel scary at times. And sometimes we face moments that overwhelm us, and that cause us to shut down and disconnect.

I subscribe to the belief that the unexamined life is not conducive to living your best life.

As a therapist I've had extensive experience utilizing a strength-based approach. I listen carefully and learn from you how your experiences have contributed to who you are now. I help you explore what your goals are, what your strengths are, and what is blocking you from reaching your potential. But how can we restore self-esteem following disappointments or messages of personal inadequacy? How can you learn to trust following being betrayed? and what does it mean to "heal" following the loss of a loved one?

I believe that my work is in helping clients walk less blindly through life. I try to ask questions to clarify the principles underlying the ways they relate to the world and others. I help not only with common problems (anxiety, depression, PTSD, phobias, OCD, etc.) but also work with those whose issues are not easily captured by a diagnosis and are existential in nature. The so-called "worried well" come to uncover and work through the sources of internal struggles, in order to become their best selves and live a more fulfilling life. I am fully bilingual and practice in both English and Russian.
