About Lacey
Lacey Brinlee is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Oklahoma. She offers practical support for stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Lacey uses straightforward, goal-focused methods so parents and adults can make steady progress.
Sessions are conversational and focused on real problems and real steps forward. She trained at Oklahoma Baptist University and has worked in outpatient settings and independent practice.
Background and approach
Lacey draws on methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused work to reduce symptoms and rebuild day-to-day functioning. She also uses Narrative Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people reframe stories and set manageable goals. Lacey has eight years of clinical experience and holds the LMFT credential.
That background informs how she combines practical tools with attention to past experiences. She pays attention to patterns that affect relationships, intimacy, and parenting, then helps clients try different strategies. In sessions she emphasizes collaboration and concrete steps.
People leave with skills they can use between meetings. Lacey also offers coaching around career, life purpose, and compassion fatigue when helpful. Outside work she enjoys time with her child and four dogs, along with outdoor play, arts and crafts, dancing, and home projects.
Her personal interests shape an approachable style that many find warm and down-to-earth.
How her approaches translate to online care
Many of her methods adapt well to remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative Therapy helps people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves so they can make different choices and feel more in control. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing traumatic memories in manageable ways and teaching skills to reduce trauma reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether to use CBT techniques, narrative work, trauma-focused strategies, or a blend that fits the client’s needs.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls and phone sessions allow for face-to-face conversation from home. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter touchpoints and a way to check in between meetings. These options offer flexibility and steady access to the therapist’s support while working toward specific goals.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Narrative Therapy
Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
