My name is Stacey Nicole Paxton. I am a Certified Anger Management Specialist, Master Addiction Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor with over 9 years’ experience. I launched my career working in community health, non- profit agencies, residential drug treatment facilities, primary care treatment centers, and private practice. As a therapist I endeavor to instill hope, facilitate growth, and provide quality individualized treatment planning and tailor our dialogue to meet your specific needs. My approach is interactive and warm. I strive to educate, advocate, and encourage those who are working hard to become better versions of themselves. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages and stages in life and distinct challenges with concerns related to substance abuse, anger management, depression, anxiety, self- esteem, mood disorders, and adjustment difficulty. I utilize an integrated approach in therapy using models of treatment such as Cognitive Behavioral Interventions, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness Based Interventions and Solution Focused Interventions. My goal is to partner with you to create a space in your environment and within yourself where you increase awareness and feel empowered to live your most authentic life! I believe through collaboration and therapy you can begin to feel balanced and empowered and this approach will help you feel safe as you encounter change. If you’re ready to take the next step. I’m here to support you! I’m excited to meet you and begin working together!
