Meadowbrook CounselingHighland, Utah

She has an extensive background in bereavement, including children and teens. Lacey also helps children and adolescents build emotional awareness, coping skills, and navigate hardships. She is passionate about supporting adults navigating anxiety, relationships, self-worth, and healing from difficult experiences. She works with couples to reconnect, heal, and strengthen communication. Lacey's passion for this work comes not only from her training but also from her own life experiences navigating life's unexpected difficulties. Those experiences have deepened her compassion and reinforced her belief that healing is possible, even when the path forward feels uncertain. Lacey approaches therapy through a relational and trauma-informed lens, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed techniques, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Couples Method, art therapy, mindfulness, and psychoeducation. She values authenticity, collaboration, curiosity, and even moments of humor throughout the healing process. Lacey understands that reaching out for help can be a courageous step, and she deeply appreciates the vulnerability the therapeutic process requires. She believes no one should navigate difficult experiences alone, and it is a privilege for her to walk alongside individuals as they move toward healing, self-understanding, and meaningful change. Whether you are navigating pain, change, or a quiet calling toward something more, Lacey welcomes you fully, just as you are.

I work with a wide range of clients and particularly enjoy supporting teens, young adults, women, men, and couples navigating depression, anxiety, body image concerns, marital challenges, and life transitions. I believe every person brings their own story, strengths, and capacity for change into the therapy room. My approach draws from multiple evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), always adapting to what fits best for each individual. I take a strengths-based, lifespan perspective, meeting clients wherever they are in their journey. Above all, I am committed to creating a space where clients feel genuinely heard and safe enough to do real work. I know that asking for help takes courage, and I don't take that lightly. Growing up in Alaska gave me a deep love of the outdoors and an appreciation for resilience, both of which naturally carry into my work with clients. Outside of the office, I stay active, prioritize my health and fitness, and cherish time with my husband and our six kids.

I work with children, individuals, and couples navigating trauma, attachment concerns, anxiety, and relationship challenges. Using an Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed and trauma-informed approach, I help clients understand how past experiences shape present patterns. I collaborate with clients to build emotional safety, self-compassion, and resilience, supporting meaningful and lasting change. In my work with couples, I focus on strengthening communication, deepening emotional attunement, and helping partners move from reactive cycles toward more secure and connected relationships. My approach is warm, relational, and grounded, and I'm committed to creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow.

I earned my bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Family Science from Utah Valley University. I was born in Argentina and raised primarily in the United States, which has given me an appreciation for different cultures and perspectives. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy working with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families from a variety of backgrounds. Before beginning my clinical training, I worked as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), where I implemented Behavioral Intervention Plans (BIPs) and supported individuals with autism spectrum disorder across a wide range of ages and support needs. Through that experience, I worked closely with clients and their families to help them build skills, overcome challenges, and reach meaningful goals. It also taught me the importance of meeting people where they are and recognizing the strengths they already have. I have a particular interest in working with couples, families, trauma, anxiety, autism, parenting concerns, and life transitions. I am especially passionate about helping families improve communication, navigate difficult relationship patterns, and strengthen the connections that matter most to them. My goal is to create a space where people feel comfortable being themselves, feel heard without judgment, and feel supported as they work through life's challenges. I believe that growth and healing happen through connection, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families as they move toward the changes they hope to create. I am honored to be part of your journey toward healing, growth, and stronger relationships.
