01About Stacey
Stacey Gooden greets people with a calm, steady presence. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. Stacey talks in plain terms and focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions.
She sees the strain of trauma and abuse and the long-term effects of things like abandonment, guilt, and isolation. Stacey helps people untangle painful memories and reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress and social anxiety.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to create space for emotions and to identify small, manageable changes. Her approach blends cognitive strategies and relaxation techniques with parts-focused and trauma-processing work. She uses straightforward tools to reduce worry, improve sleep, and lower everyday tension.
Sessions often include short exercises to practice skills in daily life. Stacey also integrates Christian Counseling when clients want faith to be part of their work. That means she can incorporate Biblical perspectives alongside therapeutic techniques when it fits a person’s goals and values.
People who choose Stacey typically want clear, step-by-step help and a therapist who listens without judgment. She offers phone, video, chat, and text formats to fit different schedules. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step starts the process.

Therapeutic methods and online sessions that fit your life
Stacey draws on cognitive strategies that help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts, reduce worry, and improve daily functioning. These techniques are useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress symptoms.She also uses parts-focused work, sometimes called Internal Family Systems, which helps people understand different parts of themselves and reduce internal conflict. This approach can be helpful for shame, abandonment wounds, and lingering reactions after trauma.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Stacey will listen to your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. Together you can adjust the plan as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online therapy with Stacey includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you have a face-to-face conversation; phone can work when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between appointments.
