Elders (65+) Therapists in The Avenue, Louisville, KY

I enjoy working with individuals, adolescents through seniors, of all gender identities, as well as couples and families; empowering clients and working towards overall well-being. My style of therapy is considered laid back and conversational but always tailored to what each individual needs and likes. Whether it be anxiety, grief processing, sexual & domestic/intimate partner violence, or caregiver support- I have something to offer everyone through traditional and holistic approaches. Additionally, I provide LGBTQ+ support and embrace alt-lifestyles.

Welcome! I want to applaud you for taking the first step to better your situation, and for taking care of yourself. I have over 14 years of direct experience working with adolescents, adults, and seniors suffering from a wide variety of mental health disorders. Some of those include depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, stress, mood disorders, and issues related to abuse. If you are brave, curious, and intelligent, then I'm your therapist! I also offer supervision as a supervisor of record for Licensed Professional Counselor Associates (LPCAs) in Kentucky.

****Now accepting new clients and offering Telehealth/teletherapy services.***** I have a history of helping those with individual issues as well as family issues. I am trained in trauma focused modalities as well as Parent-Child Interaction therapy, used to strengthen and improve parents relationships with their children as well as behavioral issues. If you struggle with mood issues, trauma related issues or relationship issues with your child or other family members, I would love to talk to you and see how we can walk this path together to create a more desired outcome.

Do you have a busy schedule and not a lot of time to do weekly or even bi-weekly sessions? If that is the case then I might be the right fit for you. 2-4 hours can be very effective when dealing with trauma or stuck material within our body. In our sessions we would choose any modality that is appropriate and feels supportive. As a recipient of intensive work myself, I assure you that this type of therapy is powerful! I also do Induced After Death intensives. Please go to my website for more information.

My goal as a therapist is to encourage clients to attain their greatest potential, to help them transform their lives to being filled with increased ease and balance, and to empower them to recognize their internal competencies that they may access as coping skills for handling the complexities of daily challenges.
