About Autumn
Dr. Autumn Lacy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who focuses on helping people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and major life changes. She brings a direct, practical style and aims to help clients build skills that make daily life more manageable.
She emphasizes setting clear goals with each person and then working step by step toward them. Sessions center on skill-building for emotion regulation, coping with loss, and reducing harmful behaviors.
Background and approach
The tone in sessions is straightforward and supportive, with gentle but honest feedback. Dr. Lacy has three years of experience as an LPC in clinical settings that included work with substance use, persistent mental health conditions, and people facing difficult transitions.
That background shaped her focus on practical tools people can use between sessions. She also has experience helping people who face grief, intense anxiety, and self-harm behaviors. Her method is collaborative.
She helps people identify what they want to change, then teaches skills to get there. Progress is tracked through concrete goals and practice outside sessions. The aim is to increase comfort and satisfaction in everyday life.
In session she listens for what matters most to each person and tailors the pace accordingly. Conversations cover emotional triggers, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and strategies for coping with mood shifts and addictions. The overall approach is hands-on, goal-focused, and grounded in practical skill-building.

Everything Autumn lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Autumn's practice.
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Dr. Lacy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on learning practical skills and changing unhelpful patterns. One approach emphasizes emotion regulation and coping skills to manage anger and intense anxiety; it teaches breathing, grounding, and stepwise behavior changes to reduce reactivity. Another common focus is grief and loss work, which helps people process painful feelings and find routines that restore daily functioning after loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, pace, and comfort level. Sessions begin with clear goals and evolve based on what helps most in real life, so the plan is flexible and client driven.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face when a visual connection is helpful. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to fit care into a busy schedule.
