Therapists in Kentucky

I am a skilled and empathetic with over 18 years of experience. I work with a wide variety of clients from the very young to the very experienced. My clients are people who have been struggling, often through many failed attempts, to get their life back on the path they want. I help my clients find their own, unique way to overcome the challenges they are facing be it depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or unexpected changes in life circumstances. I help my clients find their footing and forge their own path towards the future they choose.

My name is Michael Starr, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I believe therapy is more than just problem-solving, it’s a place to rediscover who you are, heal what’s been hidden, and move forward with clarity and strength. I work with individuals, couples, and families facing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, identity questions, and emotional overwhelm. My style is honest, grounded, and deeply respectful of the human experience. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT, but I also hold space for what cannot always be explained, your story, your meaning, your growth. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. Together, we uncover the patterns keeping you there and build the insight, skills, and resilience to move through them. You won’t be rushed or judged. You’ll be heard, supported, and challenged when needed. You don’t have to have all the answers. You just have to be willing to start. Healing begins with one honest conversation, and I’m here to take that step with you.

Hello! My name is Mickaela and I'm so glad that you're here. I understand that seeking therapeutic support can be challenging. And honestly? Valid.

With nearly a decade in the helping profession across a variety of roles, I have been honored to sit with all ages and all walks of life through some of life's most challenging moments, and celebrating some of the best. I specialize in working with survivors of trauma, children and teens, as well as adults in all phases of life. I offer individual counseling for children, teens and adults (ages 6 and up); as well as therapy for families and couples. I view therapy as a collaborate partnership, tailoring each session to your specific needs. Whether you are struggling or seeking clarity and growth, I want to provide a space where you can show up as yourself. Everyone deserves to grow, heal and thrive. If this resonates with you, I would be honored to connect with you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with seven years of combined therapy and case management experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I specialize in working with individuals suffering from anxiety, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, self-esteem issues, and codependency. I look at the bigger picture of your life and take a collaborative approach with my clients to figure out what areas we can work on helping you change to improve the quality of your life.

I work with individuals to enable them to move their lives in a direction that they value. I use a variety of interventions and incorporate mindfulness-based practices as a foundation for my clients. I have worked with all age ranges yet currently, I see exclusively adults (18 and older). My background has allowed me to work extensively with individuals with severe and persistent mental illness. My theoretical orientation is integrative and post-modern. I have substantial experience working with clients presenting with neurodevelopmental disorders, specifically. I also frequently do testing for ADHD if that is a presenting concern.

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!
