About Lanita Carter

I have been licensed in the State of Connecticut as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for approximately five (5) years. I pride myself in being attentive to the needs of others struggling with depression, anxiety, and other life challenges that may be of concern. My goal is to build a trusting and authentic connection with anyone needing my help.
We all deserve to be treated with dignity; I offer encouragement, empathy, and genuineness in a non-judgmental space. If you are feeling weighed down, or in need of support adjusting to life challenges, then I am here to help. We can work through these challenges together while learning and growing in the process. By working collaboratively, we will hopefully be able to build trust and cultivate emotional growth.
We are all unique individuals; each with our own story to tell. Although my main approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I realize that no two people are the same; therefore each process is adapted to meet individual needs. Life’s a journey and at some point, we all need guidance; let’s take this journey together.

“she’s an amazing therapist and i’ve started to come out of my shy shell a lot more”

“Only had a few interactions with her but it's clear that she takes initiative when it comes to treatment and asks proactive questions. Great fit for someone that values a no nonsense direct approach.”

“Great therapist, caring, intelligent, understanding”

“I feel like I have known her for years so it is very comfortable to talk to her. I am very fortunate to have her help guide me through this crazy world we are in.”

“Lanita is very real, listening without judgment, and providing wonderful insight on the connections between physical and mental well-being. She is involved and available, without being pushy, and balances letting you guide the conversation while she provides valuable input. She doesn't make me feel like anything is "wrong" with me. I've only had one session with her, but so far I appreciate what she has done for me and I look forward to learning more about living with a more balanced and healthy mindset as we move forward.”

“Lanita is absolutely amazing, she helped me in so many ways and as a black man in society she made me very comfortable with being able to express my emotions in a healthy manner”

“Lanita has helped me gather my thoughts and help me cope with emotional stress and anxiety. She also gives me competent support and advice, not cookie cutter paragraphs as if she’s not really listening. I feel like I have it together, but do need therapy occasionally to deal with things I struggle with due to my personality type. I’m really glad to have found BetterHelp and have recommended it to friends and family.”

“I have been talking to Lanita for about a month now, and she is wonderful. Not only does she make me feel heard but she gives me positive reassurance and helps me put all aspects into perspective. She has given me excellent insight and techniques that I apply to my day to day life and I am very thankful for her.”

“Mrs. Carter is amazing. From day 1 she has been a great help. I absolutely love her.”

“Lanita is awesome! She is super kind and understanding and really takes the time to listen and comprehend what your saying and any trouble your having. I can tell that she really cares and she has been such a big help.”

“Mrs. Carter has been amazing and helpful.”

“Lanita is a warm, welcoming presence. She allows you to feel heard. She's the reality filter I needed!”

“I have been working with Lanita for about three weeks now. And she has given me many helpful tools and support in my healing process. She creates a safe space for the patient and that is essential, especially when getting to know a new person. I highly recommend her because it is evident that to her, this is more than just a paycheck, it is a passion of hers. To help people.”

“Lanita is a very thoughtful and caring therapist.<br /> <br /> She is a great listener and offers sound advice and exercises.”

“Lanita was wonderful to work with. She is very knowledgeable and empathic but also professional. I am glad to have been paired with her during my tough times.”
