I’m a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in ADHD, mood disorders, and complex or unclear diagnoses. My approach is collaborative but direct - I focus on getting the diagnosis right and creating a treatment plan that truly fits your life.

I have experience across outpatient and residential settings, and I often work with patients who are looking for more clarity or haven’t found answers elsewhere.

My goal is to help you better understand your symptoms, feel more in control, and move forward with confidence.

Did you know melatonin may be more beneficial when taken 4–5 hours before bed rather than right at bedtime?

As a former Registered Dietitian, I can help you navigate evidence-based supplements and nutrition to support your mental health. Together, we'll identify potential nutritional gaps, discuss which supplements may actually be worth your money, and make sure they're used safely alongside your medications as part of a personalized treatment plan.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in PA. I have worked in the field for seven years and have been trained in various therapeutic modalities, including TF-CBT, CBT, ERP, BFRB, ACT, Motivational interviewing, CPT, and PE. I specialize in trauma and anxiety disorders.

I unexpectedly began the journey to become a therapist when I accepted a job as a client coordinator at a non-profit organization that worked exclusively with childhood sexual abuse survivors. I quickly fell in love with the clients and supportive staff and decided to return to school to earn my master's degree in clinical social work. I was a single mom and 40 years old when this new adventure began. It was the best decision of my life. I am humbled to support my clients as they share their most vulnerable selves. Watching positive change happen in their lives as we work together is an immeasurable gift.

Julie Lacey

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


My path to becoming a therapist has been anything but traditional. I earned my bachelor's degree in Fashion Design from Kent State University before discovering my passion for helping others, which led me to earn a master's degree in School Counseling from Long Island University in Brooklyn, New York.

For nearly 10 years, I have worked as an in-school counselor at a public high school, supporting adolescents through life's challenges with compassion and understanding. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, helping clients build practical coping skills, increase self-confidence, and navigate difficult moments with resilience.

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.
