About Stacey
Stacey Langley is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) based in Iowa. She has nine years of clinical experience and a background working as a behavioral health intervention specialist and domestic abuse advocate. Stacey focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, parenting challenges, or difficulties managing strong emotions like anger.
Her style is warm and interactive. She believes the relationship between client and therapist matters most and treats each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions focus on learning practical strategies and coping skills that fit each person's situation.
Stacey combines several therapy approaches to meet real needs. She uses trauma-focused methods to address past hurts, cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and solution-focused ideas to set clear, manageable goals. She also draws on attachment-informed work to understand relationship patterns.
Her earlier roles supporting families and survivors of domestic abuse inform how she responds to safety concerns and complex emotional histories. Stacey aims to help people build skills for everyday life, whether that means reducing anxiety, improving communication, or finding new ways to cope with grief and loss.
Stacey earned both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in social work from the University of South Dakota. She uses that training along with hands-on experience to support people through change and healing.
How Stacey's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice why they react a certain way in close relationships and practice different, healthier responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It helps people break cycles of worry, low mood, and unhelpful habits by learning new thinking and coping skills.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Stacey works together with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay useful and relevant.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up check-ins that keep progress on track. Different formats can also support shorter or more focused visits when that better fits a schedule. Discuss format preferences when you begin so sessions can be planned around your everyday routines.
