Full Circle Psychotherapy

At Full Circle Psychotherapy, we believe that every individual deserves a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. As a licensed mental health therapist, I, Ay Lacarter, am dedicated to helping adults navigate the complexities of life and build a deeper connection with themselves.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy of therapy is rooted in the understanding that choosing to enter into a therapeutic relationship is a sacred act that requires respect, empathy, and compassion. We believe that each individual is unique and that their journey towards healing and growth is personal and important. Our approach is grounded in Jungian theory, which emphasizes the importance of deepening one's relationship with their inner life through increased awareness of unconscious influences and inner dynamics.

Services Offered

We offer a range of services designed to help individuals process and overcome a variety of challenges, including:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Grief and loss
• Childhood trauma, including childhood sexual, physical, and emotional abuse
• Adult-onset trauma
• Life transitions, such as divorce, retirement, or becoming a parent
• Body image issues

• Trauma work

We utilize a range of therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, creative expression, and body awareness skills, to help individuals develop greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-compassion. Our goal is to empower individuals to take an active role in their healing and growth, rather than simply being passive recipients of therapy.

Treatment Approaches

We draw upon a variety of treatment approaches, including:
