Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has been practicing for over 20 years. I work with adults, couples, and families including children, and adolescents. My goal is to work with each person individually from a person-centered perspective. I want you to feel that you are in control of your progress by identifying your needs and focusing on your strengths . My specialties include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, behavioral challenges, post-partum depression, parenting, chronic illness, and grief. I am available to see clients in Kentucky in-person or telehealth, and Michigan or Minnesota via telehealth. The person centered approach means that the client is the center of everything from the initial assessment, to the development of the goals, to the treatment that is provided. It is important that you know you are accepted and with therapy you are able to address the concerns you have and learn to effectively work through them. I understand therapy can feel uncomfortable and the thought of sharing yourself with someone you don't know (yet) can be overwhelming. Give me a call and we can talk for an initial conversation to see if it will be a good fit.

Hi there- I'm Dr. Lella Still. For the past 15 years, I've worked in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, in a variety of roles from direct patient care to leadership. I have been independently licensed as a clinical social worker since 2013 and obtained my doctorate in social work in 2023. I have since transitioned out of inpatient care, but I have a strong desire to maintain that connection to clinical work and help individuals who are struggling. I have a particular interest and expertise in Serious Mental Illness (SMI), those suffering with mood disorders, anxiety, and depression. I would also love to work with individuals who are caregivers for individuals with SMI.

As a therapist, my goal is to help my clients make real changes in their lives so they feel better emotionally, think more clearly, and move toward the future they want. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how their thoughts impact their emotions and actions, and I support them in learning practical tools to shift negative thinking patterns. I also use a solution-focused approach, which means we work together to clearly identify what is working, build on strengths, and create realistic steps that lead to positive progress. 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 believe every child and teen has the capacity to grow, heal, and thrive when they feel seen, safe, and understood. My role is to create that space — one built on trust, curiosity, and connection. I view behavior and emotion as communication, not defiance or brokenness. I help clients understand what’s underneath anger, withdrawal, anxiety, or big feelings. My approach to therapy is relational, trauma-informed, and developmentally tailored. I believe lasting change happens when children and families feel emotionally safe, genuinely understood, and supported in learning new ways to connect and cope. Therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all — I adapt my methods to meet each child, teen, and family exactly where they are.

During trying to conceive, pregnancy and the postpartum period, women and new moms are faced with all kinds of intense challenges. Between fluctuating hormones, adjustments to motherhood, and the risk of postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, there could be a number of issues that women face during the perinatal journey. I am committed to working with women and providing them support as they navigate these uncharted waters of motherhood. Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders affect 1 in 5 to 7 moms. You are not alone. 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. This training offered me insight to using interpersonal and CBT therapeutic techniques to work with clients who are struggling with adjustments to parenthood, as well as serious mental health issues that can arise during pregnancy or the postpartum period.

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. Having lived, studied & worked in rural America, large cities, military, civilian, blue and white collar jobs, I relate to a wide spectrum of people. If you’re looking for an honest ally who can offer hope while centering on achievable goals, an empathetic ear to hear underlying solutions to your problems, a way forward to tap into your inherent strengths and skills, then get in touch and lets make life better. 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.

Life isn’t meant to be just about survival—you deserve more than just getting by. I’m here to help you discover a brighter, more fulfilling future where you can truly thrive. My name is Lauren, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Lexington, Kentucky. With over 11 years of experience in social work and 4 years of experience as a mental health clinician, I’ve worked with individuals facing some of life’s toughest challenges. Using approaches like CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness, I tailor therapy to meet your unique needs and goals. My number one priority is creating a safe, compassionate space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. I know how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel, and I believe that no one should have to face them alone. Therapy is a space where we can face the hard things together, build trust, and work toward healing. Safety and understanding are the foundation of our work because without them, true growth isn’t possible.
