About Lacey
I’m a licensed therapist serving clients across Indiana, Kentucky, and North Carolina. I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, family conflicts, and trauma. My approach is grounded in compassion and a genuine commitment to understanding each person’s unique circumstances.
I believe therapy works best when it’s collaborative—where you feel heard, respected, and supported in moving toward meaningful change. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what’s weighing on you and discover your own strengths and resilience.
Whether you’re facing relationship difficulties, family tensions, the weight of depression or anxiety, or healing from past trauma, I’m here to walk alongside you with care and expertise. Taking the step to seek support takes courage, and I’m honored to be part of your journey toward healing and growth.
