Lacey is dedicated to fostering resilience and meaningful change for individuals, families, and communities. With extensive experience serving Native American, rural, and underserved populations — including the LGBTQ+ community — she brings a deep understanding of how systemic factors and environment influence personal well-being. Lacey’s diverse professional background spans school-based settings, telehealth, crisis response, and systems-level program development, providing her with a comprehensive perspective on the complexities of the human experience.

Lacey’s clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, blending Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Functional Family Therapy. She is always evolving her practice and is actively integrating the neuroscience of stress-related symptoms, somatic therapies, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) into her work. She strives to create a safe, affirming, and empowering environment where clients feel supported in navigating their unique paths toward healing and long-term resilience.

Lacey is currently providing in-person visits in Rapid City and telehealth services in the larger South Dakota area.
