Hi, I’m Janel and my goal as a therapist is to create a space where you can exhale, drop the act, and just be you - messy parts and all. My clients often describe sessions with me as feeling a little like being at home: safe, comfortable, and sometimes even sprinkled with a laugh or two (because healing doesn’t have to be heavy 100% of the time). I work best with people who are tired of chasing perfection, struggling with codependency, or constantly seeking validation from others while quietly questioning their own worth. If you feel like you’re never “enough” no matter what you do, you’re not alone and you don’t have to stay stuck in that cycle. With over a decade of experience, including work with trauma survivors, I bring both compassion and honesty into the therapy room. My approach is about helping you untangle the weight of old patterns so you can start showing up authentically, without judgment, and begin to see your own value.

Welcome! I am a warm, non-judgemental and real person. One of my basic tenants is we, as people, are doing the best we can, and sometimes our conscious or subconscious "plan" to take care of ourselves is just not working anymore. Sometimes we need to develop a new “plan” but that can be difficult and we need help. The relationship with ourselves, family, friends and our community is a pillar to good health and well being. However things get in the way….like trauma, substance use, addiction, depression, anxiety, loneliness, illness, & fear. I want to support your concerns and help you improve your sense of wellbeing.

I have been able to assist clients in some of the darkest times of their lives and it's an honor to sit in this space with you. Grief touches us all in so many different forms and when the unexpected happens, we don't always act in line with who we are or who we want to be. Together, we will focus on being rooted in the present to develop the tools you need to make it to the other side. Life transitions come with so many ranges of emotions and what we can do is unpack your emotions, learn how to manage them, and set goals for the future you want.

Have you noticed that standard, “one-size-fits-all” approaches don't align with your cultural identities, needs, and experiences? If so, you are in the right place, and I’m so happy you’re here. I’m Kamaria :) I’m an intuitive, decolonized, and depth-oriented therapist who enjoys helping people connect with themselves. My practice is built on anti-oppressive and decolonial values, and centers Black/Brown people, as well as LGBTQ+, neurodiverse, and liberatory-focused individuals across all backgrounds. I combine clinical techniques, social awareness, and ancestral healing wisdoms to create a culturally-attuned and systemically-informed healing space - one which allows you to express authentically, and does not require you to code-switch, mask, or defend/abandon the identities, needs, values, or experiences integral to your existence. I take a humanistic, collaborative approach and pull from a diverse set of modalities that honor where you’re at, and help us move closer to who you truly are and where you want to be. I’m not here to pathologize you or your experiences, or convince you that I have all the answers. I’m here to walk alongside you as you connect further with yourself, develop awareness as the expert of your own life, and define wellness on your own terms.

I’m Dr. Brittany L. Collins, a licensed professional clinical counselor, certified mental performance consultant, and counselor educator with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision. I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, identity concerns, and high-performance pressure. I have experience working in diverse settings, including private practice, college counseling, athletics departments, schools, outpatient, and residential treatment settings. My work is grounded in a humanistic, strengths-based, and culturally responsive approach. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I strive to create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to show up as their authentic selves. I believe therapy works best when it is tailored to your unique experiences, values, and goals. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy. Together, we focus on building practical coping skills, increasing self-awareness, and creating meaningful, sustainable change. I have a special interest in working with high achievers, athletes, leaders, first responders, military personnel, third culture kids, pastors, physicians, and individuals navigating identity-related stress or major life transitions. I also offer faith-based therapy for clients who wish to incorporate their spiritual beliefs into treatment. My goal is to help clients build self-awareness, develop practical coping tools, and move toward a more balanced and values-driven life. Whether you’re seeking support for personal growth, healing, or navigating a challenging season, I’m committed to walking alongside you with compassion, professionalism, and care.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) providing individual therapy to adults (18+) across Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep desire to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. This passion led me to pursue a double major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, giving me insight into both human behavior and the systems that shape our experiences. From there, I earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work, building a strong foundation to guide, support, and empower those I work with. My practice is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed philosophy. I view therapy as a partnership, with your voice and perspective at the center. I draw from approaches such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to meet your needs and support meaningful progress.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Kentucky rather than a city like Louisville?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Kentucky. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Kentucky from Bowling Green to Lexington! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Kentucky.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
