About Lacey

Lacey Brinlee, LMFT, is a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in Oklahoma with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, and social anxiety and phobia. Lacey also addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, caregiver stress, and life transitions.

Lacey uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage symptoms and change patterns that get in the way of daily life. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses trauma-focused approaches when past events continue to affect present functioning.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Lacey helps clients set small, achievable steps and checks progress from session to session. She includes narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe stories about themselves and find concrete ways forward.

Her background includes work in outpatient settings and private practice, supporting individuals with varied concerns including PTSD, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and challenges related to sexuality and identity. Her clinical work has involved both short-term goal work and longer-term healing after trauma.

Outside the office, Lacey balances life with family, four dogs, and creative hobbies like arts and crafts, dancing, and home projects. That personal side informs a down-to-earth approach in session focused on real-life coping and everyday progress.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that reinforce anxiety. It is often used for social anxiety, compulsions, and mood concerns. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider alternate, more helpful narratives when past labels or roles limit daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and together the client and therapist will try approaches that fit those needs. This collaborative process may combine brief problem-focused steps with trauma-focused tools when past events affect current functioning.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Discussing practical concerns up front helps shape session length and structure so therapy fits into everyday life.
