About Lacey

Lacey Buxton is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 14 years of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She works collaboratively with clients to build on existing strengths and practical coping skills, honoring each person's knowledge about their own life while guiding them through difficult transitions and emotional challenges.

Her practice also addresses family and parenting concerns, anger and self-esteem issues, career-related stress, bipolar and mood disorders, compassion fatigue, and complex themes such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress.

Lacey emphasizes empathy and encouragement, recognizing that beginning therapy is a courageous step and aiming to create a supportive space where clients can explore change, process loss, and develop strategies that fit their daily lives.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Many clients find benefit from structured, evidence-based techniques that focus on present-day coping and skill building. Cognitive-behavioral approaches help identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering tools for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Trauma-informed methods focus on safety, stabilization, and processing of distressing experiences at a pace that respects the client's needs, which can be helpful for those affected by abuse, post-traumatic stress, or grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals and preferences. The clinician draws on experience and client feedback to tailor strategies, revising the plan as needed so care stays aligned with progress and changing priorities.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options let clients choose how and when to engage in care around work, family, or other obligations, while maintaining continuity of support when life circumstances change.
