About Lacey
Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior strategies with mindfulness and trauma-focused practices. She uses worksheets and structured exercises to help people apply what they learn in sessions to real life. Lacey also incorporates somatic tools and integrative mental health concepts when clients are coping with intense anxiety or trauma responses.
Over the years she has worked with individuals who face mood disorders, sleep disruptions, substance use concerns, hoarding, burnout, and struggles tied to aging or neurocognitive decline. Lacey has experience addressing first responder and military-related challenges along with grief, relationship concerns, and issues around self-esteem and impulsivity.
Her style is practical and strengths-based. She helps people identify small, manageable steps and build routines that support lasting change. Worksheets and skill practice are common parts of sessions so progress can carry into daily life.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many daily stressors by teaching clear skills and homework tasks. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships through specific skills and practice that reduce impulsive reactions.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help calm the body and mind. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses past injuries by safely processing traumatic memories and building coping strategies when needed. Lacey uses these methods to tailor sessions to the problems a person brings and to what they want to change.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps most. That way the plan reflects the client's needs and preferences rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins around a workday, or avoid the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can use worksheets, guided practices, and homework in online sessions to keep progress moving between meetings.
