I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for ten years now. You will always know yourself better than I can or will.
From a philosophical and theoretical standpoint. I am overwhelming more of an attachment theorist, and have been known to use existentialism from time to time to help make sense of something. I guess the question that remains though is; can a butterfly flap it's wings in Brazil and cause a tornado in Kentucky, or are we all simply just products of our childhood and mirrors of our parents traumas?
The duality of life.
Attachment Theory vs. Chaos Theory. Both have value. I digress.
My goal is to provide a petridish in which you can explore your self. Safe. Contained. Yet completely in your control. The paradox being, you likely already have what you need. I'll sit with you while you find it. I can give you my clinical opinion, or diagnosis, and recommendations along the way as well if you'd like that. I can just sit and listen. I can play devils advocate. My job is to listen, empower, observe, and provide feedback when requested.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) providing individual therapy to adults (18+) across Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep desire to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. This passion led me to pursue a double major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, giving me insight into both human behavior and the systems that shape our experiences. From there, I earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work, building a strong foundation to guide, support, and empower those I work with.
My practice is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed philosophy. I view therapy as a partnership, with your voice and perspective at the center. I draw from approaches such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to meet your needs and support meaningful progress.
My name is Swan Roberts. I am a licensed therapist, LCSW (licensed clinical social worker). As of now my earliest evening appt availability is 3pm. I love helping people through my work and I have been doing this for 6 years. I decided to become a therapist because I had a therapist that helped me ease through the transition of getting out medically from active duty army service, which inspired me to follow this career path. It takes courage to make the decision of facing the things that are causing you turmoil, including trauma, and I am glad you are here. I look forward to meeting you and help you transform your life through healing evidence based interventions: EMDR, IFS, SE, & CBT.
After trauma, you may be overthinking, hypervigilant, anxious in relationships, struggling with people pleasing, and not feeling confident or competent even if you can rationalize that you are. With EMDR, IFS, and SE, I can help you trust yourself and feel more calm believing your resiliency and strength, to live your life fully.
It is truly rewarding helping people heal from trauma, to see their lives, and relationships transform as symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder are replaced by confidence, security, empathy, and compassion. It is possible to heal and enjoy your life again, even for the first time.

Hi there! I’m SaMika.
Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation in which the “expert” talks to you and tells you what to do. What is the joy in that? I find joy in working with other experts to create solutions to great change- and guess what? You are the expert on YOU. I believe one of the bravest things someone can do is work to understand their own story. Whether it is healing from the past, managing the present or preparing for the future; with a collaborative, holistic approach, I want to help you achieve whatever life changes you desire to live the life you feel you deserve. Seeking a therapist can be a bit intimidating, but you have already taken the first step! I hope you will take a moment, reach out and see how I can help. Let’s work together!
Hi, I'm Rachael! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in private practice for five years, but have been working in therapeutic settings as a social worker for 15 years. I work with a variety of individuals and have an extensive background working in the field of addiction and recovery; and currently work with individuals navigating the stressors of everyday life, anxiety, relationship challenges, and the many constant demands of today's world that I believe affect all of us on multiple levels. I work with clients who are often high-functioning on the outside but may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected internally.
I'm human alongside you and I too know what it feels like to feel stuck or simply like there's a bigger gap between the version of ourself we imagine and the one we feel we can access at times. My approach is both supportive and practical and I aim to create an environment where you feel seen, understood, and capable of being honest both with me and with yourself. I find when people can simply breathe out in a safe space, they feel more able to fully develop the tools and insight necessary to create the lasting change they seek. I value authenticity in the therapy process and meet clients where they are, whether they are coming in for short-term, immediate support or deeper, long-term work.

I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland, and I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are going through emotionally heavy or overwhelming seasons of life. My goal is to offer a space that feels safe, steady, and genuinely human where you don’t have to have it all figured out, and you don’t have to carry things alone.

Hi, I'm Rachel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in helping adults heal from trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and the lasting effects of difficult life experiences.
Many of my clients come to me feeling exhausted. They've spent years trying to push through painful memories, quiet their anxiety, or make sense of experiences that continue to affect their relationships, confidence, sleep, or ability to feel like themselves. Some have tried therapy before but still feel stuck. Others have never talked about what happened because it simply felt too overwhelming.
Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to face it alone.
As a therapist trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART®), I offer an evidence-based approach that can help reduce the emotional impact of traumatic memories—often in fewer sessions than traditional talk therapy. One of the things many clients appreciate most about ART® is that you don't have to describe every painful detail of your trauma to experience meaningful healing. Together, we'll work toward helping you feel less overwhelmed by the past so you can be more present in your life today.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where healing can happen at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Imagine waking up without constantly feeling on edge. Imagine memories no longer having the same emotional grip on you. Imagine feeling more like yourself again. That kind of change is possible, and it would be an honor to help you get there.
If you're ready to begin your healing journey, I'd love to walk alongside you.

•Travel- My favorite hobby is collecting stamps in my passport! I love exploring other countries and cultures. Travel is the one of greatest educators.
•Family Time- I come from a large family so I love getting together for Sunday dinners and family gatherings.
•Hair & Beauty- I’ve been licensed as a cosmetologist for 20 years and I utilize those skills as another avenue for helping clients become the best version of themselves!
