About Stacie
Stacie Ridley is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Oklahoma with 25 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and related concerns listed in her profile. She focuses on helping people manage difficult emotions and cope with life changes.
Stacie believes people know their stories and brings practical tools to help them move forward. Sessions focus on concrete skills such as managing anxious thoughts, practicing grounding techniques, and planning steps for change. She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral methods, mindfulness, somatic work, and trauma-focused interventions when appropriate.
Her work often involves looking at how past relationships and attachment patterns affect present behavior. That includes topics such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and caregiver stress. She also addresses substance use, impulsivity, and anger in line with a client's goals.
Stacie integrates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing into trauma work alongside other therapeutic tools. Mindfulness and somatic techniques are used to help people notice how stress shows up in the body and learn ways to calm a nervous system.
People who meet with Stacie can expect direct, practical conversations about next steps, coping techniques to use between sessions, and ongoing checks to see what is working. She encourages small, manageable changes and helps clients plan how to use them in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Stacie draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT often focuses on small, practical steps to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. She also uses EMDR for trauma-focused work, which guides clients through processing distressing memories in a structured way that can reduce their emotional intensity.Mindfulness and somatic tools are part of the mix as well. Mindfulness practices teach attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity, while somatic techniques help people recognize and ease physical reactions to stress. These approaches are offered as part of a collaborative process where the therapist and client decide together which methods fit best for the person's goals and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the profile. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera for parts of a session, or schedule sessions around work and caregiving tasks. The therapist will discuss the practical setup and select the approach that best supports the client's needs.
