Stacie Borchert

Stacie Borchert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who supports people dealing with chronic illness, pain, and the emotional strain that can follow. She focuses on helping people who face anxiety, depression, addictions, low self-esteem, life transitions, and feelings of isolation and loneliness. Stacie aims to help clients find practical coping strategies and more self-compassion.

She draws on her own lived experience with chronic illness to understand the daily and long-term challenges clients describe. That background informs a collaborative style where the client’s goals guide the work. Sessions often include straightforward skills for managing stress, mood, and substance use concerns alongside gentle attention to meaning and life purpose.

Stacie uses creative expression and simple art-based activities when they fit the client’s needs, such as card making to help process emotions and reduce overwhelm. She invites people to move at their own pace and to experiment with different ways of coping until something feels workable.

Stacie has four years of clinical experience and holds the LPC credential. She frames therapy as a partnership and emphasizes practical tools alongside emotional support. People who value a therapist who understands chronic health challenges may find her approach especially relatable.

How therapy methods translate to online care

Stacie describes using practical coping skills and creative expression to help people manage pain, mood, and substance use concerns. Practical coping skills include short, teachable strategies for stress and anxiety management such as breathing techniques, behavioral experiments, and simple routines to reduce overwhelm. These techniques aim to help with daily mood and moment-to-moment distress.

Creative expression and art-based activities involve guided exercises like card making or other low‑tech projects that help people name feelings and process difficult experiences. These activities can be adapted to work remotely by using common household materials and brief, focused steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to determine whether skill-building, creative exercises, or a mix of both is the best fit based on goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as needs change over time.

The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people work with a therapist who understands chronic health challenges even if they live far from the therapist’s office.
