About Stacey
Stacey Coombes welcomes people seeking clear, steady support through tough emotions and life changes. She makes space for worries about stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the lasting effects of trauma or abuse. Sessions aim to be calm and respectful so people can say what they need to say and think about what comes next.
Stacey has ten years of experience and holds NCPS as a credential.
Background and approach
She combines different ways of working to match what each person needs rather than following a single method. That means practical tools may be used alongside deeper conversations about attachment, shame, body image and control issues.
Her background includes work with people facing grief, postpartum depression, bipolar and other mood disorders, as well as those coping with separation, domestic violence and military-related issues. She also offers support around parenting stresses, career decisions and eating or intimacy-related concerns. Therapy sessions often blend talking, reflection and simple exercises.
Stacey uses approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, emotion-focused work and acceptance-based strategies to help with unhelpful thoughts, strong emotions and patterns that get in the way of daily life. She encourages small, manageable steps and tailors pace to each person.

How Stacey works online
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Stacey will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That decision can change over time as things shift and new priorities emerge.
The original biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins around work or childcare. It also allows sessions when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs lower bandwidth, and it still supports focused discussion, practical exercises and reflective work between meetings.
