Welcome to Grow Therapy. My name is Swan Roberts, and I am a licensed therapist, clinical social worker. I have 5 years of therapy experience. At this time, I only see adult clients. I was in the U.S. army as a medic. I am so glad you have decided to seek help, and I look forward to meeting you on this healing journey. I decided to become a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) therapist because I have always enjoyed helping people realize their potential, and when I was getting out of the army, I had a therapist to help me through that transition, which inspired me to follow this career path. When people experience trauma and stress, there is a tendency to develop a zoomed-in view of the problem and even blame themselves for the root of the problem. I am here to help you develop a more helpful and realistic outlook and note available solutions to what is going on. I have education and experience treating clients who have gone through trauma, and clients who have symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Supervisor with a Master's degree from Lindsey Wilson College, I bring expertise and empathy to our therapeutic journey. As a neuropsychotherapist, I treat the brain with a focus on its powerful yet sensitive nature, integrating knowledge from neuroscience into psychotherapy. In our work together, we will incorporate neuroscience findings related to neurons, neurotransmitters, memory, neuroplasticity, and brain structures to develop effective brain-based techniques. I prioritize building genuine rapport and trust with my clients, creating a safe space where we can collaboratively process life's events and work towards healing and growth together. Our therapeutic relationship will be at the core of this process, focusing on a strong therapist-client connection. Additionally, we will utilize techniques to integrate the left and right brain hemispheres, aiming to achieve emotional balance, instill hope, and foster self-efficacy. By blending these approaches, we will work towards enhancing your overall mental health and well-being.

Are you carrying pain that no one else can see? Maybe you’re showing up every day, doing what you have to do—but inside, you’re overwhelmed, stuck, or just trying to survive. You might feel like something is “off,” or that you’re too much, or not enough. If you're navigating life after trauma, grief, or complicated relationships, you are not alone—and you don’t have to do this alone. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience helping individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, and life’s hardest moments.

I am a therapist specializing in adult mental health and addiction disorders. I have 11 years of experience providing individual, group, and couples therapy. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient environments. I offer individual, self-pay only couples counseling, and Board of Nursing evaluations. Individual counseling is billed through insurance or self-pay at $100 per hour. Couples counseling is $150 per hour. Board of Nursing evaluations are billed out-of-pocket due to the extensive paperwork/correspondence involved. However, follow-up visits can be billed through insurance if I am in-network with your insurance company. There is a no-show fee of $100. There is a late cancellation (less than 24 hours) fee of $100. My mission is to be used by God to help others reach their highest potential and purpose in life; to represent and teach tolerance, respect, and harmony; and to promote social and economic justice. I believe that all people regardless of race, culture, age, gender, religion, physical or mental disability, and sexual orientation are entitled to basic rights and fair, humane treatment. I believe that all members of society should have the same basic rights, protections, opportunities, obligations, and social benefits. My practice is governed by the belief that you are a valuable human being. You have the right to express your ideas and opinions openly. You have the right to direct and govern your life. You have the right to stand up for yourself without anxiety and make choices that are good for you. You have the right to change your mind. You have the right to not be liked by everyone. You have the right to be wrong. You have the right to make requests and refuse them without feeling guilty. You have the right not to be responsible for others’ behaviors, actions, feelings, or problems.

Life is tough and we are living in traumatic times. We’re surrounded by problems that often have few solutions, and we’re forced into societal routines that push us away from who we truly are and what we truly love. Despite the difficulties you may experience, I believe in your ability to heal, find strength in your discomfort, and exist in ways that are empowering and life-enhancing. And as a healer/wellness worker, I’m here to help you do just that! As a Black woman and decolonized therapist, my practice prioritizes and caters to the unique mental health needs of Black and Brown individuals - especially those with feminine and LGBTQ+ identities. Folks who are most drawn to work with me are those who are looking to integrate cultural and collective values into their therapeutic experience, while also working on their personal needs and struggles.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Kentucky. Life is full of change and transitions. We can't always control the events in our lives, but we can choose how we respond to them.

I believe we all need someone in our lives who provides a safe, nonjudgmental safe space to ask difficult questions and express unfiltered thoughts and emotions. I do more than listen.

I am licensed in Kentucky and Florida with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping individuals with coping with high stress careers/front line workers/emergency professionals, addictions, PTSD/ trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & LGBTQ related issues. Life has many challenges and no one heals the same way. If you are experiencing trauma let me reassure you- you will NEVER be expected to go over the details of the events that have affected you. We will work on your stressors and challenges in a way that will not leave you feel retraumatized or heavier. By meeting my customers where they are at I create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It can be difficult to talk about sensitive issues, but in a safe environment we are allowed to unload the pain and open up to healing. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
