Lacy Carpenter Counseling

Lacy believes in the healing power of being able to share your story. She strives to create a safe environment where people are comfortable to be open and vulnerable because when our stories go untold, we end up feeling lonely, without purpose, unloved, or unworthy. Her goal is to create wholeness and connection through therapy and the sharing of each person’s story. She believes a good match between therapist and patient is essential for success. Lacy is passionate about working with clients with ADHD and teaching clients strategies related to executive functioning skills. Presenting issues that she regularly treats also include anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and personal growth. Whatever your concern is, as a unique therapeutic alliance develops, Lacy’s goal is to support you in a safe and confidential environment. Lacy is a mother to an elementary age, high-energy, but so much fun boy, as well as a very involved aunt. When time allows, Lacy loves to travel. She has done extensive volunteer work with victims of domestic violence in both Guatemala and Peru. Lacy Carpenter is a Licensed Professional Counselor.

Previous experience includes addressing mental health concerns with teenagers and young adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. As well as reinforcing skills in school settings.
