About Stacie
Stacie Ridley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 25 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and related issues. She approaches problems in a straightforward, practical way and treats clients as the experts on their own lives.
Stacie starts by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. She asks concrete questions about patterns, triggers, and how problems affect daily life. From there she uses methods such as cognitive behavioral work, mindfulness, somatic techniques, and trauma-focused steps to address specific symptoms and behaviors.
Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings. That might include short behavioral experiments, grounding and body-awareness techniques, or thought-record tools to reduce reactivity. For some trauma-related concerns she incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing elements where appropriate to help process distressing memories.
Her style is practical and direct. She helps people notice what keeps problems going and then practices alternatives in session. Stacie also supports people managing caregiver stress, codependency, attachment wounds, impulsivity, and addiction-related challenges.
People looking to start are guided through a brief intake and scheduling process. Stacie asks about immediate safety, current supports, and realistic goals so the early sessions can focus on the most urgent concerns.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Stacie blends cognitive behavioral work with mindfulness and somatic techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce reactivity. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce rumination and quicken recovery after anger spikes. Somatic Therapy looks at bodily responses to stress and uses grounding and body-awareness exercises to calm intense feelings.Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they try methods that match the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress or challenges appear.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people try practices such as in-the-moment grounding or behavioral experiments between meetings so therapy fits everyday life.
