Welcome to Flourishing Cactus Psychotherapy!
Grow. Heal. Reclaim.
If anxiety, overthinking, or self-doubt are making life feel harder than it should, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep carrying it all by yourself.
​ I offer a supportive space where you can slow down, make sense of what you’re going through, and start creating real, lasting change. Together, we’ll work to shift patterns that no longer serve you—whether that’s people-pleasing, perfectionism, or the constant pressure to “have it all together.”
The name Flourishing Cactus reflects what I believe about healing: even in harsh, demanding environments, we can adapt, grow, and thrive.
​
This is your space to feel seen, supported, and reconnected to who you are beneath the stress.
I provide virtual therapy for adults living in Maryland and Colorado.
You don’t have to be “perfect” to start. You just have to be ready.
Let’s get started.
Everyone thinks you’re doing great.
You’re smart, capable, and put together. But inside? It’s a different story.
​You’re constantly second-guessing yourself—replaying conversations, analyzing your every move, wondering if you said the wrong thing or didn’t do enough. Compliments feel uncomfortable. You brush them off because if they really knew you, they’d see the self-doubt, the anxiety, the part of you that always feels a little behind, a little “not enough.”
​
The word IMPOSTER might not be something you say out loud—but it’s the one that lives in the back of your mind.
​
You work hard to hold it all together, but it’s exhausting. And even when you achieve something, the feeling is fleeting. It doesn’t land—because there’s always that voice telling you: You got lucky. You fooled them again.
But here’s what I want you to know:
Feeling like an imposter doesn’t mean you are one. And you don’t have to keep living under the weight of perfectionism, self-doubt, or fear of being “found out.”
​​
Therapy offers a space to pause and breathe. Together, we’ll explore the beliefs that have been running the show.
​
And from there, we’ll begin to cultivate something stronger and more lasting: a confidence with deep roots. A sense of self-worth that doesn’t wither under scrutiny or depend on constant achievement to feel real.
​
Like a cactus, you’ve learned how to survive in tough conditions. Now it’s time to grow in a way that feels steady, expansive, and true.
​
Resilience brought you this far. Therapy can help you take root and truly flourish.

Bridgit Lacy-Wolak
With over 17 years of experience as a therapist, I’ve learned that growth rarely comes all at once. It’s often quiet, nonlinear, and at times, uncomfortable. But over time, those small, steady shifts lead to something meaningful—something rooted, strong, and real.
​Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have always been capable, wise, and resourceful.
You don’t have to do this alone. I’m here to offer a steady presence, compassionate support, and a path forward that honors your pace, your story, and your strengths.
Services
Individual Therapy
Psychotherapy is a collaborative process that allows you to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a supportive environment. It offers a safe space to gain insight, develop coping strategies, and foster personal growth. Through open communication and trust, you can work towards understanding yourself better and achieving your goals. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and cultivate a more fulfilling life.
EMDR
​Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy designed to help people process and heal from distressing memories and trauma. It involves recalling traumatic experiences while engaging in bilateral stimulation, usually through guided eye movements, tapping, or sounds. This process helps the brain reprocess stuck memories so they feel less intense and disruptive. Over time, EMDR can reduce emotional distress and negative beliefs associated with past experiences, helping individuals move forward with greater ease
​

This integrative approach allows me to create a supportive and effective environment for healing and personal growth. Together, we can explore what works best for you on your journey to wellness.
