Dr. Lacy Frazer — hero and credentials
Meet
Lacy Frazer, PsyD
…at the intersection of Personal Experience & Professional ExpertiseExperience
Expertise
Lacy’s work is grounded in both deep professional experience and a life fully lived. While she holds a doctorate in clinical psychology and spent over 20 years as a criminal psychologist, followed by leadership in behavioral health within a residential wellness center, she believes her greatest insight comes from her own life journey.
Growing up on a sailboat at age twelve, competing and coaching as a Division I lacrosse player, and raising three children have each shaped how she sees the world and connects with others.
Lacy doesn’t rely on theory alone; she brings curiosity, compassion, and real-world understanding into every interaction, meeting people where they are and helping them move forward in a way that feels both grounded and possible.

Break the Patterns,
Change Your Life
Most people aren’t stuck in their lives; they’re stuck in the stories they’ve been living.
From an early age, we all begin to make meaning out of our experiences. We draw conclusions about who we are, what we’re worth, and how the world works. These conclusions often happen unconsciously, but over time they solidify into beliefs, emotional patterns, and behaviors that shape the exterior of the person we become.
What once helped us adapt and survive can eventually become the very thing that keeps us feeling stuck inside of ourselves. This outer shell is made up of limiting beliefs, familiar emotional cycles, and patterns that no longer serve us. And the hardest part is that it can feel so normal; we don’t even realize we’re living inside of it...and we certainly don’t realize there is a different, more authentic version of ourselves seeking to emerge.
Lacy supports clients in identifying learned patterns that create the shell and helps them chisel away to reveal the version of themselves that is seeking to emerge.
Lasting change doesn’t come from fixing yourself; it comes from understanding yourself.
When you begin to see your patterns clearly, you create the opportunity to step out of them. You reconnect with your ability to choose differently, to respond differently, and ultimately, to create a different experience of you in your life.
Lacy’s role is not to fix you or rescue you, but to help you see what you haven’t been able to see, challenge what’s been holding you back, and support you as you chisel and emerge!
