Stacy Shepherd is a Clinical Psychologist and Educational and Developmental Psychologist based in Broulee, NSW. You can find her practice at 3/40 Train Street, Broulee NSW 2537. Stacy also works as a Psychologist, so sessions can be a good fit for a range of needs, depending on what’s happening in day-to-day life.
In many cases, people come to see Stacy when anxiety or stress is starting to take over. At times that can look like constant worry, trouble sleeping, feeling on edge, or finding it hard to switch off after a busy day. Other people seek help when behaviour and emotions feel out of sync, especially when things at home, school, or work are putting pressure on them.
Stacy offers counselling sessions that aim to be practical and understandable. Sessions often use behavioural therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). This kind of approach can help you notice the patterns that keep a problem going, then work on ways to change them. It’s not about “quick fixes”. It’s more about building skills you can use in the real world.
Stress management techniques are a big part of the work too. That can include learning how to slow things down in the moment, spotting early signs of burnout, and creating a plan for coping when life gets a bit heavy. For some people, it’s also about building confidence and routines that make things feel more manageable.
Stacy’s educational and developmental psychology background can be useful when concerns link to learning, development, or school-based challenges. In these situations, sessions may focus on understanding what’s behind the difficulties and finding supports that fit the person, not just the diagnosis.
Over time, Stacy works with clients to set clear goals for therapy. The aim is usually to help you feel more in control, and to make daily life easier to handle. Progress can be gradual, and that’s okay. Sometimes it’s one small step at a time, especially when stress has built up for a while.
Stacy’s approach is calm and grounded. She keeps the focus on what you need right now, and then works from there. She has psychology training and continues to keep her practice up to date with good, evidence-informed care. If you’re looking for a psychologist in Broulee who can help with counselling, CBT, behavioural strategies, and stress management, Stacy is there to support you.
