Stacy Scarisbrick, BACP

Stacy Scarisbrick is a counsellor trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychodynamic therapy and person-centred approaches, bringing a thoughtful and client-focused style to her practice. She works to build a respectful therapeutic relationship where people feel heard and supported while exploring their thoughts, feelings and patterns. Stacy is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body that sets standards for ethical practice in the United Kingdom.

She emphasises a non-judgmental, compassionate environment that helps clients gain perspective and move toward greater self-understanding and empowerment. Her work focuses on helping people cope with everyday pressures as well as significant life events, using practical strategies alongside opportunities for deeper reflection. Stacy's areas of specialism include anxiety and stress, depression, sexual abuse and domestic violence, family and relationship issues, work-related stress, low self-esteem, financial concerns, addictions, and perinatal challenges such as postpartum depression, birth trauma, miscarriage and infant loss. She also supports clients facing relationship difficulties and other interpersonal stresses, offering a space to process difficult experiences and consider constructive steps forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Stacy uses several evidence-informed approaches adapted for online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an accepting space where the client’s own goals and pace guide the work; it helps with building self-esteem, processing emotions and improving relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression and stress. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and relationship patterns shape present difficulties, supporting deeper insight and long-term change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Stacy works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits their needs, goals and preferences. Together they will try to find strategies that feel meaningful and achievable, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Stacy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life, and allow people in different locations to connect with licensed professionals and therapists who can guide them through challenges and coping strategies.
