About Staci
Staci DiMattia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 17 years of experience as a therapist. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood symptoms, and issues related to substance use and recovery. She also addresses relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges like parenting, intimacy, and self-esteem.

Her background includes long experience in multiple clinical settings before working as a therapist for 17 years.

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions and problem solving.
Many people come to her for help with codependency patterns, blended family issues, and addiction-related concerns. She also supports people through life changes like pregnancy, postpartum, career shifts, and loss. Staci offers straightforward feedback, skill-building, and practical strategies to help clients set boundaries, reduce overwhelm, and manage emotions.

How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and what they help
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to guide work in session. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful relationship patterns and teaching clear skills for setting boundaries, handling conflict, and reducing people-pleasing. This is helpful for someone wanting concrete ways to change recurring behaviors that cause stress.A second approach emphasizes coping skills for mood and anxiety symptoms, such as short behavioral experiments, grounding techniques, and stepwise plans for managing overwhelming emotions. These methods aim to reduce day-to-day distress and increase the ability to tolerate difficult feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which techniques fit best based on the client’s goals, current concerns, and preferences. That collaborative process may involve trying different strategies and checking regularly on what is helping.
