About Stacie

Stacie Ridley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth care for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and life transitions. Parents looking for support around parenting challenges will find clear, actionable guidance.

She believes people bring strengths that help them change, and she offers steady support while they find new ways forward. Stacie uses straightforward talk and skill-building in sessions.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with workable alternatives. She also uses trauma-focused and somatic approaches to help people process hard experiences and reduce their body's stress responses. Sessions often include short exercises to practice between meetings.

Stacie helps people set achievable goals, try small changes, and review what works and what needs a different plan. She pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and teaches grounding tools that can be used anywhere. Parents who are juggling caregiving, behavior questions, or feeling worn down by relentless demands will find focused help for coping and communication.

Stacie also supports people dealing with attachment wounds, codependency, impulsivity, and substance use concerns. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Throughout, Stacie emphasizes practical steps over jargon.

Her approach is clear, patient, and strengths-based so people can regain a sense of control and hope as they move forward.

Online support

Online approaches for trauma, behavior, and stress

Stacie combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR with mindfulness-informed and somatic techniques to address stress, trauma, addiction, and parenting challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change mood and reactions. It helps with anxiety, depression, and everyday parenting struggles by teaching concrete skills and short exercises to practice between sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories so they feel less disruptive; it can reduce the intensity of traumatic reactions and make day-to-day coping easier.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring. Sessions may start with CBT tools and add trauma-focused or body-based practices as needed, and adjustments are made over time based on how a person responds.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video visits let people practice skills together and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for brief updates, between-session support, or when texting fits a busy schedule. These options help people fit therapy into their everyday life while working with licensed professionals.
