Dr. Lacrecia Dangerfield , LPC-MHSP

Dr. Lacrecia Dangerfield helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. She meets people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns with a calm, down-to-earth approach. Dr. Dangerfield is a Tennessee licensed counselor with 20 years of experience and uses that background to guide practical conversations about next steps.

She focuses on clear goals and small changes that add up. Sessions often involve looking at patterns in relationships, how past attachments affect today's reactions, and simple skills to reduce anxiety. She also works with people dealing with caregiver stress, workplace strain, seasonal mood shifts, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and narrative and solution-focused methods to help clients tell their story and try new ways of responding. That mix helps people make sense of painful events like loss, separation, or major life transitions.

Dr. Dangerfield emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. Conversations and plans are shaped to fit each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. She aims to create short-term goals that feel achievable and relevant to daily life.

She also pays attention to multicultural concerns and issues that commonly affect women, including struggles with self-love, midlife questions, and balancing caregiver roles. People who want practical support and steady guidance may find her style helpful.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand why they react the way they do in close connections. This approach can be useful for relationship problems, attachment issues, and coping with separation or divorce. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms; it is often used for stress, SAD, and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Dangerfield will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. She helps clients pick techniques that match their immediate concerns and day-to-day life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when internet bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can fit quick check-ins or busy schedules, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and progress.
