About Stacee
Stacee Compton is a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health (LPC-MH) in South Dakota with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures and broader life challenges, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and communication problems, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and issues related to LGBT identity.
Compton draws on approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered methods, and mindfulness to help people understand how past relationships and current habits shape their reactions. She also uses motivational interviewing and narrative techniques to help clients clarify goals and make changes that feel doable.
Sessions focus on practical conversation and developing skills that fit daily life. She helps people name patterns, practice new ways of communicating, and build coping strategies for emotional ups and downs. For parents and people in blended families, she addresses adoption, attachment, and family-of-origin concerns in straightforward terms.
Her style centers on realism and collaboration. She listens to what each person brings and adjusts the pace and tools to match their needs. Many clients notice clearer thinking about priorities, relationships, and next steps after a few sessions.
Compton practices from South Dakota and conducts work in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships shape current reactions and helps people notice patterns in closeness and trust. This can be useful for relationship strain, blended family stress, and histories of abandonment or adoption issues.Client-centered therapy focuses on clear, nonjudgmental conversation. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them organize thoughts when life transitions feel overwhelming. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce anxiety and manage mood swings.
Choosing an approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and practical needs, then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made over time based on what works for the individual.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats she is offering. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Therapists help clients adapt tools like mindfulness or motivational interviewing to everyday routines so progress can continue between meetings.
