About Lacey
Lacey Buxton is a Florida licensed mental health counselor with 14 years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and parenting or family concerns. Lacey affirms clients’ strengths and respects each person as the expert on their own story. She acknowledges that beginning therapy takes courage and offers a steady, supportive space for that first step.
In sessions she focuses on practical, evidence-based ways to manage strong emotions and life changes. Conversations often include learning skills for coping with anxiety, processing loss, and calming anger. Lacey also supports people navigating mood disorders, bipolar symptoms, and challenges related to attention and focus.
She pays attention to how past experiences shape current relationships and reactions, including issues like attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care histories, and domestic violence. That attention helps people understand patterns and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Her approach is collaborative and strengths-based. She helps clients set clear goals and practices concrete strategies between sessions. Progress is addressed in simple, measurable steps so people notice change as they go.
Lacey works with individuals across a range of life stages who face family and parenting stress, career pressure, compassion fatigue, or the fallout from trauma. She offers services in English and practices in Florida as an LMHC.
Approaches that guide online sessions and support
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are central to Lacey's work and focus on practical change. One commonly used approach is skills-based work that teaches concrete tools for managing anxiety, mood swings, and anger. These tools include breathing and grounding exercises, behavioral steps to break cycles, and routines that help daily functioning.Another approach emphasizes processing difficult experiences related to trauma, loss, and attachment. This style helps people tell their story at a pace that feels manageable and practice new ways of relating after painful events. It can be helpful for those dealing with abandonment, adoption or foster care histories, and post-traumatic stress reactions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This is a joint process that focuses on what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Ask about current online options when you schedule. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or after work so therapy can be more consistent and practical.
