Christina Lacey is a New York licensed marriage and family therapist (NY LMFT 001586) with eight years of clinical experience. She entered therapy as a second career after raising a family, bringing both personal insight and professional training to her work.
She maintains a private practice serving couples, individuals, and older adults - a population she identifies as often under-served. Christina is also a certified grief counselor and addresses concerns across a range of areas including stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, depression, life transitions, parenting, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Having engaged in therapy herself as a teenager and later as an adult, Christina values the role of talking with a skilled professional to expand perspective and find new options. Her family’s own experience with anxiety and depression has informed her understanding of how mental health affects family systems.
Christina uses a systemic lens in her work, integrating solution-focused and narrative approaches in collaboration with clients to set clear goals and identify strengths for change. She approaches therapy with an open mind, respect, and sensitivity, and she measures progress regularly to maintain motivation and ensure the work stays on track.
Therapy can be challenging, but Christina believes that with supportive, structured work individuals and families can move toward a healthier place. She looks forward to the opportunity to work with new clients in New York.
Many people want to know whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been found to be similarly effective as in-person care for most individuals.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can meet with a therapist in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care across life transitions.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if a different fit is needed clients have the option to switch therapists. For many people, these features make online therapy a practical and accessible way to address everyday mental health concerns and relationship issues.
