Stacie Aori
MA, AMFT
I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families experiencing mood disorders, trauma, and complex family transitions.
Healing is a collaborative and evolving journey where we continuously build, grow, and ease forward by elevating our strengths. I specialize in supporting individuals and families as they navigate life's challenges. My clinical experiences have ranged from school-based therapy and outpatient mental health to private practice and crisis stabilization. I have supported individuals and families navigating acute crises, depression, anxiety, trauma, and complex family transitions.
My approach is rooted in person-centered and psychodynamic frameworks where I believe that individuals can take the lead in their own healing as they uncover how past experiences shape their present lives. I integrate different modalities and interventions in my practice, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), systemic family frameworks, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
I work collaboratively with clients to tailor treatment to the unique needs, goals, and strengths of the individual. I look forward to working with you to identify and implement treatment that works for you.
