Natasha Lacey
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S
Children and teens do not always have the words to explain what they are experiencing. Anxiety, irritability, withdrawal, emotional outbursts, school difficulties, grief, family changes, peer concerns, or behavioral changes may signal that they are struggling. I create an age-appropriate and supportive environment where young people can express themselves, build coping and emotional regulation skills, and feel understood while involving caregivers when therapeutically appropriate.
