Lacie Winn , LCSW

Lacie Winn is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience supporting people through stressful and painful life moments. She focuses on practical steps that help clients manage anxiety, cope with grief, and adjust to career and life changes. Her tone is direct and compassionate, and she aims to make therapy simple and understandable.

Her sessions begin with listening to the problems that matter most to the client. She helps people name their feelings, spot patterns that cause distress, and try straightforward strategies to feel better day to day. Many clients come for help with low self-esteem, work stress, or transitions such as separation or major health concerns.

Lacie also has experience with issues tied to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and blended family stress. She supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiving strain, cancer-related worries, and aging or geriatric issues. Body image, codependency, and communication problems are additional topics she addresses.

Her work emphasizes building coping skills and small, achievable changes. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the process and tailors each plan to a person’s goals and life situation. Sessions are collaborative, with a focus on what the client finds most useful.

Clients meet with her for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what fits their schedule. She practices in Pennsylvania and conducts sessions in English.

Evidence-based approaches for online care

Two evidence-based therapeutic techniques she draws on include skill-based coping work and grief-focused support. Skill-based coping work teaches concrete tools for managing anxiety and daily stress, such as breathing, pacing, and breaking tasks into smaller steps. Grief-focused support helps people process loss, organize memories, and build routines that reduce overwhelm while honoring what was lost.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review a person’s situation, goals, and preferences and then choose methods that fit. This is a collaborative process that can be adjusted as needs change over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let clients maintain face-to-face connection when possible. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when a shorter, more frequent contact fits someone’s routine. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, medical appointments, or travel.
