Hi there, I'm Marie
At times you find that you struggle to remember your value and to honor your own limitations and boundaries. Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, isolating from friends and family? Are you always worried the worst case scenario will happen to you? Do you struggle with self-image issues or adjusting to new life demands?
I help clients who are willing to build new skills to manage their symptoms of depression or anxiety. Together we can travel on your mental health journey . I am committed to support you in the process with the utmost respect and dignity. If this sounds like you, I would love to help. My experience includes working with clients with mood or anxiety disorders, older adults whose challenges are unique due to declining physical abilities or clients who are having a hard time adjusting to a new life condition. I have always found purpose in motivating and empowering the clients I work with.

I am a LCSW based out of Southern, Kentucky but originally from Middle Tennessee. I made my way to the beloved Commonwealth of Kentucky to complete my undergraduate degree, Applied Human Sciences with a focus on family and child studies, at Western Kentucky University (WKU). Go Tops! I liked WKU enough that I stuck around for another two years where I completed my Masters in Social Work.
Unfortunately I was not granted a wand with my degree to make everyone's life magically better but I was granted the opportunity to help every client I serve. As your therapist I promise to respect, support, and collaborate with you to establish the best way to navigate through the trials and tribulations of life.

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.

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.

My mission is to be a servant to others by empowering and helping you on your path to emotional wellness. I have helped children, teens and adults with anxiety, depression, mental health disorders, relationship conflict, and parenting concerns; assisted others to heal from acute abuse, childhood and adult traumas. I am also experienced with persons who have migrated to the US from other countries and the barriers that are encountered with those changes. Whether it be acute crises', life surprises, circumstantial stressors or complex traumas; let me teach you new skills or sharpen the ones you already use to either decrease, eliminate or change negative behaviors or unwanted symptoms.
I have worked among many different populations and settings (non-profit organizations, state and government facilities, public education, and now private practice) and have learned to navigate through different challenges and with those experiences I have become a person who is compassionate to unique needs and desires. If there is an area of concern that I'm not able to assist you with I will be honest with you and seek assistance or refer you to a better qualified professional.

These different settings have developed me into a compassionate and caring provider who is eager to help!

After trips to Africa, I renamed my practice Acacia Vitality:
I got to see some mighty Acacia trees (along with animals who love them)! These trees stand the test of time and survive elephants shaking them as well.
Like the acacia tree that thrives in the harshest conditions, true mental toughness and resilience grow strongest through adversity.
I was so inspired by this concept that I now center my practice and research around it.

I have spent a great deal of time with adult clients that have experienced complex trauma and I've provided all levels of addiction treatment to adults across a variety of settings. I treat my clients with respect and autonomy, and feel the relationship is the most valuable part of treatment. This means I bring authenticity to the relationship as well as trust and safety. I believe in talk therapy, but I emphasize movement toward change and awakening so that clients can truly feel better. To accomplish this, I use bottom-up approaches that help clients reach deeper levels of insight. I gently walk them through integration of these insights so they can affect meaningful change in their lives and relationships.

Are you a parent of a high-achieving adolescent or college student who seems to be withdrawing from school and from their friends? COVID created treacherous hurdles that high school and college students had to navigate including lack of socializing with peers and not having adequate support from teachers and inadequate learning opportunities for them to develop into confident students. Competition is now relentless due to 24 hour access to social media and kids just don't have enough down time to unplug.
Are you a veteran of any of the conflicts in Afghanistan or Iraq? Are you having trouble integrating into civilian life or are traumatic memories of combat preventing you from having healthy relationships? I get it. I served in the U.S. Army from March of 2009 to September 2014 and deployed to Mosul, Iraq as part of Operation New Dawn. I am passionate about helping my brothers and sisters in arms move their lives forward and to find their new normal.
I also enjoy helping professional women with life transitions whether that mean a new job, becoming a parent, infertility issues, or pursuing a new career.
Please give me a call. Therapy is a collaborative process and I look forward to helping you on your journey.

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.

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 and honestly. 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 to ask for information. You have the right not to be responsible for others’ behaviors, actions, feelings, or problems.

*In-Person Appointments Available per request.
Hello! First things first, I would like to give you massive amounts of credit for making the choice to begin/continue your journey to healing, health and happiness. Whether you choose me or another provider it is extremely brave to make the effort to look into beginning or continuing with therapy services.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent approximately ten years in the field with the last six being in the clinical setting as a therapist. I have worked with youth, ages 4-21, who have experienced trauma and were placed in out of home care or in the independent living program through the state. I have worked with individuals of all ages who struggled with addiction and dual-diagnosis, and I have worked most recently with individuals who have survived or were impacted by sexual trauma. These groups also included individuals with more common diagnosis such as Depression and Anxiety.
I love helping people find their own light and worth within themselves. When I work with clients my goal is to ultimately foster independence and the ability to function well in the world without my help, however; I also believe therapy every now and then is similar to an oil change for your brain. Life is ever changing and having a consistent person you can trust and check in with can be extremely healing and helpful. I believe the most important thing you can do as a clinician is to genuinely care about the people you serve and I feel that those I work with are able to tell that I am authentic in attitude.
Please understand if I am working with a child in your care I will need your participation as the parent or guardian as well. Children make the most progress when they are surrounded by adults who understand their needs (which is sometimes more difficult than it sounds). I am not in the business of "fixing" children/adolescents, but do try to help them learn how to navigate life in a healthy more productive way which hopefully will result in their being more happy and fulfilled human beings.

Do you feel overwhelmed and under too much stress? Are you struggling with a history of trauma or problem relationships that cause problems in your current relationships? Is it hard to break those problem patterns or be kind to yourself?
I help people overcome their anxieties and past traumatic/problematic relationship and behavior patterns. Together we can explore the problems that are causing difficulty in your life and relationships and find ways to resolve or move past them. We will use a holistic, whole self approach addressing the needs of your mind, body, and spirit. I try to integrate the things that are important to you into treatment to help you develop a strong healthy relationship with yourself as well as your people.
I'm here to help. I know that seeking therapy can be scary and overwhelming, but you are making the right choice in seeking a safe place, free of judgment, to heal and grow. I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques like EMDR to help you overcome the problems you are struggling to deal with on your own. I'm here for you and happy to help.

My name is Jacqueline. I am a licensed clinical mental health therapist in Kentucky. I have been in this field for 14 years and have a genuine passion for the work I do. While I specialize in addiction, trauma and grief, I have worked with individuals on an individual as well as group level, focusing on a variety of areas of mental health issues.
My approach is more of an eclectic approach. I do not insist on using any particular modality for each client, but rather, I like to development my approach and methods toward and around the individual needs of each specific client I serve.
I find fulfillment in being able to help those in need, to overcome obstacles they are faced with. Everyone deserves to find their place of happiness and true contentment and to be able to reach the highest level of satisfaction in themselves and where their lives are at and going. It can be difficult to see and experience when you are weighed down with all the stressors life presents.
I look forward to meeting you and being able to go on your journey with you.
