Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Southland-Deerfield-Open Gates, Lexington, KY

My work with women and parents is based on one simple belief: we all are capable of finding joy and satisfaction. And the right therapy can help. Overwhelming stressors, unhealthy relationships and patterns of self-sabotaging behaviors frequently get people off track. I work with clients to select the right approach to help them achieve their goals. As a therapist with over 20 years of clinical experience, I offer psychotherapy with an emphasis on mindfulness. I am also certified in EMDR.

“This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.” I strive to create a space where healing occurs - a place where you can sit with difficult thoughts, emotions and behaviors, and develop the tools to transform them. My style is warm and supportive, creating an environment that fosters self-acceptance. I believe in partnering with you to help you unlock blocks to growth and change.

I believe that everyone tries to get through life the best they can. Yet many of us find ourselves struggling to meet our goals, improve our relationships, or we just don’t feel happy. My approach to therapy is to work together in understanding what is preventing you from feeling your best, finding ways to help you feel better, and letting you know you are not alone in the process.

I work with children and teens who are struggling. As a parent, you may notice your child feels overly sad, tired, unmotivated and withdrawn. Some have sleep changes and excessive worry. Others become irritable, argumentative, and have frequent conflict with peers and/or caregiver relationships. School grades may drop. Other problems may include extreme mood swings, self-harm, and aggression. Reactions may seem over-reactive or "melodramatic". Both children and caregivers become frustrated, angry, sometimes even hopeless. Sometimes both of you need support and guidance in meeting these challenges.

I specialize in working with clients who are trying to manage their lives while dealing with addictions, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. I work to help these clients minimize the impact these disorders have on their day-to-day, while also working with them to reduce shame they may feel because of their mental health.

No judgement, only solutions! I work with adolescents and adults (families and couples too) to navigate some of life's challenges. I'd love to talk with you by phone or email to see if we might be a good fit. If we're not, I bet I know who might be.

Accepting new clients as an out-of-network provider. My greatest reward as a therapist is helping my clients explore ways to make the changes in their lives that will allow them to look forward to the future with hope. I provide my clients with a warm, nonjudgmental environment-a safe place to explore the issues that may be preventing you from living the life you want. I have been working in the mental health profession since 2013 with experience specifically in mental health counseling with children, adolescents, and adults.

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.

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!

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.

Hi, I’m Rosalie. I help couples and parents who are stressed out and need support. I believe you’re doing the best you can. Maybe you are ready to work on marital problems that have slowly built up over the years. Maybe you're not sure if you and your spouse/partner can recover the love and connection that you once counted on. Perhaps you would like to feel more confident as a parent or co-parent. Maybe you just need to figure out where to start. I can help you no matter where you are in your couple/family journey.

We specialize in the assessment and treatment of OCD and OCD-related disorders across all ages. Treatment consists of evidence-based approaches that help our patients to weaken the cycle of worry and improve overall life satisfaction. We currently provide two levels of care at LOCD: outpatient & intensive outpatient programming. Evidence-based approaches utilized in the provision of OCD treatment include exposure with response prevention (ERP), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindful self-compassion. Individual and group options are available for care.

As an eclectic therapist, I draw upon a broad set of clinical and life experiences to best meet the needs of my clients. I like to incorporate the unique strengths and knowledge brought to therapy by each individual, couple, and family who I work with. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Are you wanting to be free of constant anxiety, worry and self doubt? You may be feeling stuck or lost. Do you experience panic attacks? Does worrying and anxiety create difficulties in your personal and/or professional life? You may be losing sleep by worrying all night. You frequently ask: What's wrong with me? For so many, these fears take on a life of their own and it feels so overwhelming. Our thinking and resulting behaviors can be changed, and we are then able to bring more relaxation and joy into our lives, more success in our relationships and jobs, and have better health.

Are you feeling depressed or anxious, and possibly having thoughts of suicide? I provide suicide-focused treatment for individuals who are struggling with suicidal thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I also provide cognitive-behavioral approaches for a range of clinical concerns affecting adults, including Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, substance abuse, grief and bereavement, especially suicide bereavement.

Seeking out a helping relationship can be a significant first step toward lasting positive change. I believe that by providing you with a safe, understanding and collaborative relationship together we can help you achieve your goals. Whether it's finding ways to reduce stress and be more effective, overcoming problematic behaviors, healing trauma or developing a better understanding of your past and how it affects the present, I can help.

It's never easy asking for help, and choosing someone to help with issues as difficult as anxiety, depression, past trauma, or current relationship issues can be a stressful process in and of itself. Thank you for taking the time to read through my profile and considering me to support you in your process. As someone with a degenerative eye disease, I know what it's like to struggle. Life is often difficult and I want to assist people in finding a greater understanding and practical solutions in their lives that ultimately lead to greater happiness.

Counseling is weird. You hang out in an office with a stranger who looks like a cozy accountant, there's some real talk about your personal problems, then money changes hands. I've been on both sides of this, so I get it. But maybe it's okay if this sort of thing is a little different, a little weird. My whole thing is about getting you unstuck, and that only happens with a change of perspective. Thinking differently. Acting differently.
