About Stacie

Stacie Ridley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with 25 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship struggles, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other life changes. Stacie also addresses concerns like attachment wounds, codependency, caregiver stress, and substance-related problems.

In sessions she treats the person, not just the symptoms. She listens for patterns such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or living around someone else’s moods or drinking. Stacie helps people name what is happening, build practical steps for change, and practice new ways of coping. Conversations are direct and focused on what will make daily life easier.

Her approach draws on methods that work for trauma and stress. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thoughts that keep problems going. She integrates trauma-focused tools and somatic methods to help the body calm down after distressing experiences. EMDR and mindfulness strategies may be used to lessen the intensity of difficult memories and to improve present-moment awareness.

Sessions tend to be action-oriented with room for reflection. People who struggle with abandonment, dependent patterns, impulsivity, guilt and shame, or relationship betrayals often find this practical focus useful. Stacie aims to help clients practice concrete skills between meetings so changes carry into everyday routines.

She offers care in English for adults located in Oklahoma. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Stacie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test better ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is practical and often focuses on small, measurable changes that reduce anxiety and improve coping.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which is a trauma-focused method aimed at reducing the intensity of painful memories and the emotional reactions they trigger. EMDR is often paired with somatic or mindfulness practices to help the body and mind settle after stressful material comes up.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That plan can be adjusted as sessions progress so the approach fits the client's needs.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, and somatic exercises for remote sessions to keep the work practical and focused on daily life changes.
