About Emily Carter (She/Her)

Emily Carter, a compassionate and experienced Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) at LifeStance Health, is dedicated to helping individuals and couples in Colorado navigate their mental health journeys. Serving clients across the state, Emily understands that asking for help can be a daunting task. She emphasizes that therapy is not about “fixing” something broken but about understanding and addressing challenges by leveraging personal strengths. Emily specializes in couples therapy, providing expert support to help partners navigate their relationships. Her approach is rooted in compassion and empathy, creating a safe space for clients to explore their emotions and needs. In addition to couples therapy, Emily offers individual and group therapy, focusing on a wide range of issues, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, and PTSD/trauma.

She is particularly passionate about sex-informed therapy, working closely with clients to address concerns related to sexuality and relationships. Emily utilizes a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Couples/Marital Counseling. She is committed to serving diverse populations, including LGBTQ+ individuals, women, and men. Emily’s therapeutic style is warm and caring, providing a supportive environment for clients to reflect, process their needs, and work through their challenges. Outside of her professional life, Emily enjoys drawing, watching movies, hiking, swimming, and baking.
