Hello, my name is Toni Webb. I have over 20 years in the social work profession with extensive clinical experience. In addition, I have been a clinical supervisor for over 6 years and a lecturer for the University of Kentucky School of Social Work teaching Integrated Behavioral Health in Primary Care.
I specialize in working with individuals by focusing on enhancing personal well-being, improving relationship satisfaction, and working towards decreasing distress. Symptoms related to anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, grief, family discord, and life adjustment due to medical issues such as chronic pain and insomnia, are common complaints of the patients I work with.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Anxiety or Panic, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Chronic Medical Issues such as Insomnia and Chronic Pain Management, Depression or Mood Disorders, Grief and Bereavement, Stress Management, PTSD/Trauma, and Women’s Mental Health.

My treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an action-oriented approach to psychotherapy that stems from traditional behavior therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Clients learn to stop avoiding, denying, and struggling with their inner emotions and, instead, accept that these deeper feelings are appropriate responses to certain situations that should not prevent them from moving forward in their lives. With this understanding, clients begin to accept their hardships and commit to making necessary changes in their behavior, regardless of what is going on in their lives and how they feel about it.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on modifying dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts by interrogating and uprooting negative or irrational beliefs. Considered a "solutions-oriented" form of talk therapy, CBT rests on the idea that thoughts and perceptions influence behavior.
Humanistic
Humanistic therapy, also known as humanism, is a form of talk therapy that focuses on a person’s individual nature, rather than assuming that groups of people with similar characteristics have the same concerns. Humanistic therapists aim to consider the whole person, especially their positive characteristics and potential for growth, not only from their professional viewpoint but from a client’s own personal sense of their behavior. The emphasis in sessions is on a person’s positive traits and behaviors and developing their ability to use their instincts to find wisdom, growth, healing, and fulfillment.
