Lacey Gibson

Lacey Gibson, LCSW, helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start. She works with individuals dealing with anxiety, anger, grief, depression, and parenting stress. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping clients find practical steps forward.

She uses clear, evidence-informed methods to support change. Sessions focus on building coping skills, improving communication, and understanding emotional patterns that keep problems repeating. Lacey encourages small experiments between meetings so clients can test new ways of reacting and relating.

Her work often centers on relationship and intimacy concerns, family stress, and life transitions. She also helps with self-esteem, ADHD-related struggles, and issues tied to abandonment or attachment. Clients looking to address body image, caregiver strain, or the fallout of divorce will find direct, problem-focused support.

Lacey trained and practices using approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. She draws from these tools to tailor sessions to each person’s needs rather than applying one fixed method.

She holds a license as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California, and has five years of clinical experience. Sessions are offered in English and she does not take international clients. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How Lacey’s approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s experience and pace, giving space for someone to be heard and to shape goals. This approach helps when clients need empathy and a steady partnership while they sort through strong feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete tools to interrupt patterns like rumination or reactive behavior and is useful for anxiety, anger, and low mood.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying and changing emotional responses in relationships. It can help people name what's beneath anger, improve communication, and rebuild connection with others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to use and when to shift priorities.

Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and using shorter check-ins when needed to keep momentum. Because session formats are not specified here, confirm current options before booking. The focus is on making therapy usable in everyday life while working toward clearer coping strategies and better emotional regulation.
