I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is comfortable, non-judgmental and empathetic. I believe that you are the expert in your life and it is my job to assist you with identifying and applying solutions to the obstacles that you are seeking help for. After establishing a therapeutic partnership, together, we will create a self-care plan that will assist you between sessions. Participation in therapy can result in a number of benefits to you; thus I ask for your active involvement, honesty, and openness in order to make the changes you desire.

While I have experience working in a dual-diagnosis treatment center for those struggling with substance abuse, I also have experience working with clients living with the effects of trauma, mood disorders like anxiety and depression, self-harm and suicide ideation, OCD tendencies and psychosis. In the counseling office I am supportive, non-judgmental and empathetic while maintaining a direct and solution-oriented approach to help you achieve your goals. I'm LGBTQ+ affirming and welcome all gender identities, sexualities, and presentations into my office.

Living authentically and compassionately leads to inner peace. Trauma and distress can cause a plethora of confusing responses, making that peace seem unobtainable. Each person brings their own worldview, experiences, strengths and clues to unburdening oneself from the overwhelm. Healing and moving forward can seem daunting. Therapy transforms the mind-body system, leading to increased self-energy and clarity. Now also offering training for schools and organizations on becoming trauma-informed!

Greetings! I am Kendall Turpin and practice in Lexington, Kentucky. I offer teletherapy across the state. Traditionally, I use Functional Family Therapy intertwined with Cognitive Behavior Therapy in helping people find their joy again. Though I am comfortable in many types of counseling situations, I specialize in relationship therapy with adults who identify as LGBTQ, etc....

Do you hide unexplained anxiety or anger under a calm 'put-together' exterior? Do you struggle with self-defeating behaviors and don't really know why? You may be struggling because of developmental trauma. The effects of adverse childhood experiences continue on into adulthood: difficulty trusting, difficulty tolerating and regulating emotions and often physical challenges such as autoimmune issues. I provide emotional support and insightful relational engagement to help you overcome developmental trauma and begin to flourish and thrive instead of just survive.

You've been going through it. Your partner, friends, and family see it too. You just want to move on with your life, but don’t know how. It happens to us all at some point, but you're still unsure about talking to someone. Going to therapy is a huge step for yourself because you've felt tired of be tired long enough. For me, therapy goes best as a conversation between people as if over coffee or tea. If this sounds like you, it looks like you're ready for a chat. I’m looking forward to joining your journey.
