About Lacey
Lacey Gibson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and changes in life. She works with adults on issues like parenting stress, relationships, self-esteem, depression, and attention challenges. Her tone is calm and direct, aimed at making therapy feel understandable and reachable.
She focuses on practical steps you can use between sessions. Conversations look at thoughts, feelings, and everyday habits that keep problems going.
Background and approach
She helps people try new ways of handling difficult moments and notice what actually makes life easier. Lacey uses approaches that center the person's experience. That means listening first, then collaborating on goals.
She blends talking therapies with focused tools so sessions feel grounded and useful rather than abstract. Her background includes five years of clinical practice in California. Lacey holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, and brings that clinical perspective to routine concerns like parenting strain, relationship conflict, and coping with loss.
She commonly helps people facing family tensions, intimacy-related struggles, communication problems, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce. Other areas she supports include caregiver stress, body image concerns, and issues around abandonment and attachment. Sessions aim to be concrete and manageable.
Lacey helps people set small goals, practice skills, and track progress in ways that fit busy lives. The focus is on steady steps forward, not quick fixes.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to you. It helps people feel heard and then collaborate on goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful cycles; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong emotions that affect relationships and intimacy, supporting clearer communication and connection.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable, then try methods that suit those priorities. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively and adjusted as progress is tracked.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let you work face to face when a longer conversation is needed. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief, ongoing support between sessions or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines while keeping the focus on useful tools and steady progress.
