Therapists in Kentucky

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience walking alongside people as they navigate life’s struggles, questions, and turning points. Clients often describe me as warm, calming, and deeply present. I strive to create a space where you feel truly seen, safe, and supported—exactly as you are. My approach is grounded in Mindfulness-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), woven together with a strong belief in the power of compassion, curiosity, and connection. We’ll work together to understand what’s getting in the way of the life you want and explore new ways to relate to your thoughts, emotions, and experiences—without judgment. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, spiritually disconnected, or just unsure of your next step, I’m here to listen closely and help you reconnect with your own inner wisdom and strength. I work especially well with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, spiritual or faith-related stress, and life transitions. As someone who values meaning, presence, and authenticity, I approach each session with kindness and care. I don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions—but I do believe that healing is possible, growth is always available, and you don’t have to do this alone. I currently offer virtual sessions to clients in Kentucky and Kansas, and am in the process of expanding my licensure to Washington. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth, respect, and gentle guidance, I’d be honored to work with you.
