Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows; it can be filled with challenges, difficulties, and hardships. I believe that life is all about perspective and the way we react to problems. Our trials and tribulations are opportunities for us to grow into stronger and wiser individuals. When challenges arise, most people ask, "Why?" I encourage my clients to change their mentality by asking, "How?"—how can I use this to grow and learn, make myself smarter and wiser?" I am a firm believer in empowering clients with the tools and knowledge needed to live a more fulfilling and productive life. With 8 years of sobriety and personal experience battling my own challenges, I know how helpful therapy can be in helping a person rebuild their life and become the person they want to be.

Hello, I'm Elisabeth Davis, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with an MA, licensed in both Kentucky and Ohio. I am also a Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider. One of my favorite quotes from Maya Angelou is, 'My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.' My mission is to help you find the best way to overcome and thrive in your life.

Hey y’all, are you ready to break free from stress, anxiety, hopelessness, or self-doubt and create a life aligned with your true potential? I’m Nikki Layne, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with over 9 years of experience guiding individuals through life’s toughest challenges. I was born and raised in a rural town in Eastern Kentucky. I know how isolating it can feel to be unsure of who to turn to or how to move forward. That’s why I’m committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where you can truly be yourself, explore your feelings, and discover your strengths. My personal experiences inspired me to open my private practice, Counseling in the Holler, LLC; having navigated challenges myself, I wanted to create a space where others could find support, healing, and understanding in a compassionate, inclusive environment. So whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, self-identity struggles, addiction, or LGBTQI+ issues, I’m here to help you break free from what’s holding you back and create the life you deserve.

Hello there brave one! I am passionate about helping you live your best life, and I believe that having a healthy support system (whether that be through marriage, family, or friendships) is key to our success. Founder of Emotion Focused Therapy, Dr. Sue Johnson, puts it well saying, "Being the best you can be is really only possible when you are deeply connected to another." I utilize relationship-driven therapies and focus on helping you get in touch with your emotions, core desires, personal and interpersonal needs. I specialize in seeing individual adults and couples for pre-marital or post-marital therapy. My hope is that you can learn in life not just how to survive, but to thrive! I most often use emotionally focused therapy (EFT), solution-focused therapy (SFT), and mindfulness techniques to help you find that fulfillment, connection, and sense of purpose we are all born desiring.

Welcome my friends. It's a battle in the heart, so I live by the adage that I will be in my own battle or someone else’s battle for the rest of my life. Our days are like the weather and so are emotions. Many days the sun shines, but the rains do come and sometimes a destructive storm hits hard (a divorce, the loss of a loved one, cancer, suicidal thoughts, et cetera). I have been honored to be in the field of psychology for 20 years since 2004. Through the years, more than half of my time was in the Army where I primarily worked with soldiers enduring anxiety, depression, trauma, Traumatic Brain Injury, and all the other usual suspects of psychological distress such as guilt, fear, worry, shame, pain, heartbreak, addiction, identity conflicts, and sorrow. I’ve also worked in the prisons for many years with extreme situations (i.e., murder, severe mental illness, rape, child molestation, drug kingpins, gang leaders). I have seen many miracles. So, no matter what your circumstances are, never quit and never give up! I’m a combat veteran and retired Army officer, a devout Christian, husband, father, grandfather, and experienced clinical psychologist. Let’s get into the root causes of your battle and find ways to overcome, change, forgive, accept, and move upward toward the light. The darkness will eventually lift, and the light will surely shine again.

During trying to conceive, pregnancy and the postpartum period, women and new moms are faced with all kinds of intense challenges.

With support and help, you can be healthy and enjoy a rich and meaningful life. I am certified through Postpartum Support International in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker based in Bowling Green, KY who has an obsession with Dolly Parton, Pekingese dogs, and New Orleans. I cuss sometimes, I can't cook, and I can juggle.
