About Stacee

Stacee Compton is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health (LPC-MH) based in South Dakota. She brings 15 years of experience helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting strains, and relationship and communication problems. She also addresses pregnancy and childbirth-related concerns as part of her broader practice focus.

Stacee adapts her approach to each person. She starts by listening and asking what matters most to the client. Then she uses therapy methods that fit the person's needs and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her work often involves looking at early attachments and how those patterns affect current relationships. She uses client-centered conversations to help people name feelings and make practical changes. Mindfulness skills are introduced when clients want tools to manage stress and stay calmer in the moment.

Stacee has particular experience with adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, and attachment questions from childhood. She also helps people facing grief, body-image struggles, codependency, and mood or attention challenges.

Her style is straightforward and supportive. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings. The therapist sees the relationship itself as a helpful part of change and encourages open, honest conversation about what is working and what needs adjusting.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they show up now. It helps people understand why certain reactions feel automatic and supports safer ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and empathy. The therapist follows each person's lead, helping them name feelings and find their own solutions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and calm the body, which can reduce reactivity and help with stress and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Stacee will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process helps shape the focus of sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, scheduling during a break, avoiding travel time, or choosing a shorter check-in when needed. It also allows consistent contact when addressing parenting challenges, blended family concerns, or postnatal stress while keeping appointments more convenient.
