About Stan
Stan Peck is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Alabama who focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy. He uses clear conversation and real strategies to help people dealing with stress, anxiety, mood challenges, and sleep problems. He aims to meet people where they are and build plans that fit daily life.
He has about 10 years of professional experience and has worked in inpatient mental health hospitals. That background includes supporting people with serious mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. He also has experience addressing addictions and substance use concerns.
In sessions he keeps things respectful and straightforward. He works with people on parenting concerns, motivation, confidence, and low self-esteem. He helps people who are grieving, struggling with body image, or coping with major life changes.
His approach draws on several evidence-informed methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy. He tailors conversations and plans to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.
Stan emphasizes compassion and sensitivity in therapy. He encourages small, practical steps and will help set realistic goals. Taking the first step can feel hard, and he offers steady support while people work toward clearer sleep, better coping, and improved day-to-day functioning.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and problems with sleep. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them; it often helps with mood, anxiety, and sleep patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can help with intense emotions and impulsive behaviors.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will happen together. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That collaborative process guides whether ACT, CBT, DBT, or a mix best fits the person’s needs.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when needed. It also makes it easier to practice strategies in the settings where challenges occur, such as nighttime routines for sleep, while still keeping sessions focused and goal-oriented.
