About me

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.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lanita Carter. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

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.

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.
