Stacie Hill
Stacie Hill is a trauma and anxiety coach, researcher, and founder of Anchored By Faith Coaching, where she helps individuals heal from emotional and mental health challenges through a faith-centered and trauma-informed approach. Her professional journey began with a strong desire to help others, leading her through academic exploration in education, biology, and nursing before discovering her true passion for psychology during a college course at County College of Morris. That pivotal moment inspired her to pursue advanced study in clinical psychology at Centenary University, where she became highly engaged in research, case studies, and academic presentations within the psychological sciences.
Throughout her career, Stacie has gained extensive experience working in diverse mental health environments, including inner-city community mental health services, case management roles, and private practice settings. She is especially proud of her work helping develop a state-funded domestic violence Abuse Intervention Program for offenders, where she contributed to creating the group counseling manual and program framework. Her work has been presented at professional conferences, including the Eastern Psychological Association Conference, where her research on trauma-related mental health challenges and behavioral psychology was published. These experiences have deepened her commitment to helping individuals understand the connection between emotional wellbeing, behavior patterns, and long-term healing.
Today, Stacie is dedicated to guiding clients toward lasting emotional and spiritual wellness by helping them calm the body, renew the mind, and restore a sense of purpose and identity. Through Anchored By Faith Coaching, she provides support for individuals who want to incorporate faith into their healing journey and move from survival-based living into confidence, peace, and resilience. She remains passionate about witnessing transformation in her clients’ lives, empowering them to grow, heal, and pursue their goals with renewed strength and clarity.

What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to having a supportive family, especially my amazing husband who has always been supportive and even encouraged me to start my business when I was wanting to give up. He kept pushing me, telling me I'm so good at this with my education, background, empathy and compassion for people. Without a support family, I wouldn't be able to do what I do. My church has also been incredibly important. The pastor there has really helped me grow and has been supportive of me starting a business to help Christians that need counseling but want to do it in a way that includes God. Putting God first is the foundation of everything I do.
What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
The best career advice I’ve ever received is to always continue learning and never stop growing. Staying curious helps you adapt to change, build new skills, and stay relevant in your field. Just as important is to lead with confidence believe in your expertise, speak with purpose, and trust your ability to make an impact even when facing new challenges. Learning keeps you prepared; confidence helps others recognize your value.
What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
I would tell her not to get discouraged by the people that come through messages being inappropriate, because that doesn't show her character, it shows theirs. I would encourage her to keep pushing through, but never tolerate that kind of stuff. Report, block, do whatever you need to do to stay safe, because at the end of the day, our safety is what is most important. If we're not safe, then we're not going to be able to help others. As women in this field, we get sexually harassed a lot because people think we'll just take it, but we need to set boundaries and protect ourselves.
What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
One of the biggest challenges right now, especially with social media, is dealing with an insane amount of inappropriate messages. I've had someone offer me $3,000 to do guided meditation and other things, and I even went on one consultation call where a person was actively pleasuring himself. Yesterday another person offered me $5,000 a month for something inappropriate. As women in the field, we get sexually harassed a lot because people think we'll just take it. It's disgusting and it's a real challenge we face. On the opportunity side, the field has become mostly female-dominated now because it's turned into a nurturing field. When I worked in in-home community mental health in the inner city, case management, and private practice, the teams were mostly all females, which means there are a lot of examples for women to look up to in leadership positions.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
Putting God first is the most important value to me in both my work and personal life. Faith is the foundation of everything I do.
