About Lacey
Buxton emphasizes that clients are the experts on their own stories. She listens first, then collaborates on practical steps to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Conversations focus on small, doable changes that stack up over time rather than dramatic overnight shifts.
With 14 years of experience, she brings steady clinical experience from working with people who have faced trauma, loss, and complicated family situations. That background informs how she helps people rebuild routines and cope with symptoms tied to mood disorders and post-traumatic stress.
She also addresses challenges around parenting, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and compassion fatigue for people in giving roles. Buxton works on issues like abandonment, guilt, and shame with a focus on restoring self-worth and clearer coping skills.
Sessions aim to identify patterns, practice new responses, and build personal tools for managing anger and related struggles. To begin, readers are encouraged to select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Many of the evidence-based therapeutic techniques used by this clinician focus on skills practice, personal insight, and managing strong emotions. For example, structured skills work teaches concrete strategies to notice triggers, calm the body, and choose different responses when anger rises. This helps with everyday stress and reactive moments.Another common approach emphasizes processing traumatic memories and learning safer ways to remember difficult events without becoming overwhelmed. That kind of work supports healing from past abuse, loss, or other painful experiences. Both approaches aim to restore daily functioning and reduce the impact of intense emotions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans based on what is helpful. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to prioritize.
Confirm current session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find online therapy useful because it can fit more easily into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about available formats when you complete the short matching questionnaire to see what fits your life and goals.
