Hello, I'm Stacy R.

Stacy is a Licensed Clinical Counselor and Certified Trauma Professional from San Diego​,​ California​,​ with additional training and certifications in leadership​,​ trauma​,​ somatic​,​ and other therapeutic modalities. Stacy has worked with foster youth​,​ families​,​ couples​,​ and adults with concerns ranging from trauma​,​ anxiety​,​ depression​,​ to difficulty managing the stressors of everyday life. "As a therapist​,​ I see clients weekly that are struggling to manage stress​,​ release emotions​,​ and connect to themselves and others. But they’re in therapy​,​ they should be able to “get better” right? I mean​,​ you learn a breathing or grounding technique in session​,​ then go sit in traffic​,​ or right back to work and family. Without time and space to really let these skills sink in and integrate them into your life it's no wonder we constantly “need a vacation” a “retreat” a “get away”. Connect to Happiness was created as a way to teach others how to get IN to their lives​,​ rather than crave to escape it. Dominica is an unspoiled paradise​,​ and as a frequent solo traveler​,​ I have never felt a greater sense of relaxation and clarity than I did here. The perfect setting to allow your nervous system to settle​,​ and really learn to embody the “coping skills” that will give you the power to create and control your own happiness​,​ even after you’ve returned to your day to day."
