Therapists in Kentucky

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’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Kentucky. I understand that seeking help takes courage, and I believe that real, lasting change—though often difficult—is always possible. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in mutual respect. I consider it a privilege to hear your story, support your healing process, and help you move toward the life you want to live. You deserve to feel seen, supported, and empowered—through an approach that feels right to you.

Hello there brave one! I am passionate about helping you live your best life, and I believe that having a healthy support system (whether that be through marriage, family, or friendships) is key to our success. Founder of Emotion Focused Therapy, Dr. Sue Johnson, puts it well saying, "Being the best you can be is really only possible when you are deeply connected to another." I utilize relationship-driven therapies and focus on helping you get in touch with your emotions, core desires, personal and interpersonal needs. I specialize in seeing individual adults and couples for pre-marital or post-marital therapy. My hope is that you can learn in life not just how to survive, but to thrive! I most often use emotionally focused therapy (EFT), solution-focused therapy (SFT), and mindfulness techniques to help you find that fulfillment, connection, and sense of purpose we are all born desiring.

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.

Lauren is an Expressive Arts Therapist, Sex-positive, Kink-knowledgeable, Gender affirming, and Trauma therapist. As a white, pansexual, neurodivergent therapist, I understand that we are all different. I provide a laid-back atmosphere.

Help others understand their trauma whether that be physical, mental, sexual, spiritual, etc. While utilizing evidence-based practices, I strive to support, encourage, and empower you.

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.
