Alcohol Use Therapists in Grayson, KY

I have years of training and experience helping those with mental health concerns that hold people back from meeting their full potential. I have 3 years of training in Advanced Psychodynamic through The Wayne Institute and Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute. My practice tailors our approach to healing in the way that which will best meet your needs. My goal is to meet you where you are- together we will come to the resolution you are seeking.

Life is a journey and sometimes we may need a little help along the way. On life's journey we may experience anxiety, depression, grief or trauma which me may lead us feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, fearful or angry. Sometime we may need someone to walk beside us on the journey to assist in overcoming and healing from life's ups and downs.

I love working with young adults (20s/30s) who are interested in experiencing more authenticity, freedom, and joy in life. I provide a safe space to process the fears that hold you back from living your most authentic life and will help you soothe and comfort the wounded parts of yourself that act out in fear to stop you from being fully you. We'll talk about how your less authentic behaviors are your way of trying to protect yourself from pain or rejection and discuss whether these protective measures are still necessary in your current situation. My goal is to help you develop more compassion, gentleness and love towards yourself.

Sometimes life can seem to hit us all at once and we can feel overwhelmed and talking to a friend is just not cutting it. Therapy can provide a safe place to discuss what we are going through, help to develop new coping skills and to have someone help us process our thoughts and to guide us to making healthy decisions to bring our life back into balance. I will provide straightforward/non-judgmental guidance through whatever problem you want to work though.

Helping people is not only our profession, but also a passion. We provide support for: addiction, codependency, mental health, relationship issues, anger management, and counseling. Through empathy, compassion, knowledge, and understanding we can help you utilize tools that you already possess to help you succeed with lasting changes to your life.

The idea for New Creation Counseling started years ago as I embarked on my life reclamation. Through my journey a wholehearted desire grew to help those who are hurting and I wanted to provide them with a safe place to heal. What have you been running from and what have you been using to avoid coping with your reality? It would be a privilege to share in your process of working through addiction, relationship discord, depression, anxiety, life transition, anger, stress and any other issues you may be facing. We are not built to face these burdens alone, so I invite you to invest in yourself and start growing forward.

We provide services to people who are seeking Identity Counseling, Trauma and Grief Counseling, Mood and Anxiety Counseling, and more. We foster a safe space for people who identify as LGBTQ+, LGBTQ+ allies, and people who are seeking behavioral health services. The core values for ODCC are Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Diversity, and Excellence (PRIDE).

I have experience working with individuals with a variety of different concerns including: depression, anxiety, grief, relational problems, mood disorders, trauma, and substance abuse. I engage clients in evidence based therapy interventions that include cognitive behavioral therapy, client centered therapy, and motivational interviewing. I provide clients with a safe, non judgement environment to help foster personal growth. I encourage clients to self reflect and look through their life with a difference lense. I believe that everyone has the ability to change and live a fulfilling life and will work just as hard as you to help you achieve your goals

Life is full of impactful moments; some bring us insurmountable joy, and others leave us feeling defeated and distressed.

If you are looking at this site, you are interested in resolving a personal issue or making important changes. To all of us, life is a series of challenges. Some you can manage on your own--sometimes life gets complicated and overwhelming, and life is too short to keep spinning your wheels.

I counsel an array of emotional and behavioral aspects including ADHD/ADD, depression, anxiety, anger management, men's issues, relationship issues, health challenges and substance abuse. I believe that people can change and grow throughout their lifespan. Counseling can facilitate self understanding as well as understanding of others. My clients range from adults and older adolescents dealing with individual life challenges, to couples dealing with relationship issues, and seniors adjusting to changes and challenges.

My passion for advocacy and a client-centered approach were cultivated in my early years as an educator, but my intellectual curiosity regarding the process of personal change and the value of interpersonal relationships motivated me to returned to NKU for a Master’s degree in Social Work. Since graduating with an MSW, I have enjoyed working with a wide variety of clients in diverse settings including a hospital, court-mandated program, and most recently an outpatient office and school-based office. I provide individual therapy to children, adolescents and adults, as well as families and couples.

Many of my clients have struggled with various forms of anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions and past trauma. Many of my clients have been women of color navigating challenges with family, work, grief, parenting and relationships, while attempting to cope with the stressors that come with these roles. Often, these clients are attempting to be the best version of themselves, and want assistance in identifying and strengthening ways to thrive, rather than merely survive.

I work with individuals, couples and families of all ages with a wide range of mental health issues. These include but are not limited to Alcohol and Drug related issues, Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Dual Diagnosis and relationship related issues. My training started at The University of Kentucky studying Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy. I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Kentucky in 2005. I have a passion for what I do and cannot imagine doing anything else.
