Lisa Carter, LCSW
About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Florida with experience working with teens, adults, and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, confidence/self-esteem, grief/loss, and sexuality. I have also worked with clients who have experienced physical, emotional, and sexual trauma.
My counseling style is compassionate and client-centered. I believe each of us deserve respect, dignity, and to be free of judgement. I combine a cognitive –behavioral and humanistic approach to counseling, tailored to your unique needs and style.
It is said that “Difficult Roads often lead to Beautiful Destinations”. If you are ready for the journey, I am here to walk beside you, to support you, to empower you.
I look forward to getting to know you and partnering to find ways to reach your goals!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lisa 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.
In the two months I was on here, Lisa was a phenomenal part of my healing process. She helped me think of new perspectives and encouraged me throughout the entire way through. She is an amazing active-listener and can follow through all the ramblings that I’ve done. I was able to open up without feeling judged and felt very welcomed by her.

Lisa is very kind and listens to my problems without being judgmental. She is offering me tools that I can use to help me work through my current situation.
