Hi there, I am Dr. Smith.
Do you need a therapist who encourages, motivates and instills hope that empowers you to take control of your struggles so you can live out the best version of yourself? Life, Love and relationships often come with unique challenges that can make us feel like we are being pulled in many directions. These challenges are combined with work and financial stress that can often leave us exhausted and dissatisfied with life.
I help individuals, couples and families identify stressors so that together we can begin the healing process and improve your quality of life and relationships. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse or relationship issues I am here to help. I use an approach centered around compassion, empathy, and the belief that all of us have worth and dignity. The evidence-based techniques used will give you hope while working toward the change that led you to therapy.

I help adult clients confront trauma from the past and work through difficult transitions in the present. My clients have decided they want to move forward in life without being held back by anxiety, depression, anger or problematic behaviors, like substance abuse or sexual compulsions. Some know what past experiences or present challenges are causing these difficulties. They may have experienced childhood abuse or neglect, or they may have grown up in a family burdened by mental illness, substance problems, or financial hardships. Other clients are struggling to identify the source of their pain. I help all my clients understand the origins of their difficulties and use therapy methods matching their individual needs to nurture peace, contentment and fulfillment in their lives.

Hello, Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor(LPCC-S) in the state of Kentucky. I have been practicing counseling in various forms since 2011, and becoming fully licensed professionally to practice in 2015 (13 years total). My role as your counselor is not to rescue you from your emotions, but rather help you gain a better understanding of your emotions by developing a sense of self that is both empowered and autonomous.
While working together, I hope to help you meet your personal goals, have a growing knowledge of self through psycho-education, adopt coping strategies, and build a stronger sense of self-reliance while learning from and working through current and past life experiences. It is my goal to be with you through this process with non-judgment, encouragement, and unconditional positive regard as a respected and unique individual. I use an eclectic, strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to therapy.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, and Tennessee, with a specialty in the treatment of anxiety (Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional) and substance abuse (Licensed Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Kentucky and Certified Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Georgia). I have been practicing counseling/therapy since 2008 and have practiced in multiple settings, including residential, correctional, and outpatient.
I am a Disabled Veteran and in long-term recovery from substance use. I have also been a user of mental and behavioral health services. As such, I am personally aware of the stigma associated with reaching out for help. Be assured that reaching out for help takes an extraordinary amount of inner strength and desire to be your best self.
My philosophy regarding counseling/therapy is that it is not magic. A secret word or a snap of the fingers does not solve our issues. Therapy is two people talking about life’s difficulties, learning coping mechanisms to manage our reactions to those difficulties so their impact is reduced in the present, and utilizing those coping skills in the future to prevent our previous, undesired, reactions from returning. It takes hard work to make changes in our lives. Congratulations for valuing yourself enough to make a commitment to yourself to do the hard work.

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. I am a firm believer in empowering clients with the tools and knowledge needed to live a more fulfilling and productive life.

Reaching out for help in the form of therapy is not an easy thing to do as many can attest, but by reading this biography, you are taking the first step in getting help for yourself or a loved one. At times, life offers many struggles and obstacles that can be difficult to overcome alone. Engaging in therapy will provide opportunities to explore and process the thoughts and feelings that prevent you from living your best life. Though the thought of therapy may be intimidating and even nerve-wrecking for some, I believe once a person finds the right therapist, they find a trusting confidant who seeks to understand and problem solve.

Hi, I'm Chris, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC-S) with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field helping individuals with a wide range of emotional and life issues. I use evidence-based therapeutic strategies as well as a person-centered approach to individualize your needs, abilities and means to achieve your goals.
If you are A) looking for an honest ally, who can offer hope while centering on achievable goals B) In need of an empathetic ear but open to learning how to problem-solve C) wanting a better understanding of yourself, your thoughts and feelings - then we might be a good match. Wondering if telehealth is effective? You might be surprised just how so.
I work with individuals who have likely been struggling for many years, sometimes have more than one identified issue and are unsure of how to change how they feel, improve their relationships or see things getting better for themselves. Typically, core issues can be identified within the first few sessions along with a plan to manage them.

I have approximately 30 years of experience in virtually all clinical settings. I began my career working in a juvenile penitentiary (referred to as a 'youth development center) and after almost 6 years, left that setting and moved on to new opportunities. Along the way, I worked with group homes, foster homes, substance abuse treatment programs, and even provided treatment in a sexual offender treatment program. In 2004 I went solely into private practice and currently operate two offices. I also provided on-site services to businesses that suffer a death or other disruptive event; I have provided over 170 of these services in four states during the last several years. While you don't need any faith to see me, I also offer Christian Counseling. Finally, I am a US Army veteran and understand the challenges and needs of veterans.
I operate under a practical approach that seeks to build on a person's strengths to achieve realistic, measurable goals. I utilize primarily cognitive behavioral therapy and reality therapy to help my clients achieve their goals and to live life more fully.

I am a psychologist with over 30 years of experience who believes that the journey to self-understanding is one of the most important tasks a person can undertake. Psychotherapy is a guided process that helps people reach the goals they set for themselves.
The most important ingredient for successful psychotherapy is the match between client and therapist. If a good match is achieved, then positive things will happen in therapy. You should feel empowered when looking for the right therapist. After all, you are auditioning people to find someone who can help you with your journey.
