Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Louisville, KY
If your child or teenager is experiencing anxiety, you likely already know that it can take things: relationships, school performance, new opportunities... everything is up for grabs. Often, this represents not just a loss for the child but also a loss for everyone in your child's life who misses out on who they are at their best.
Fortunately, anxiety does not have to be the end of the story.

Noam Shpancer once stated, “Mental health is not a destination, it’s a journey. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going.”
As humans, we are all on our own mental health journey, though some may experience more hills, curves, and bumps in the road than others. Whether overcoming poverty, battling substance use, trauma, anxiety, or depression and despair, you are not alone. With deep knowledge of the human psyche, a keen awareness of societal pressures throughout the lifespan, and a strong heart for helping others, I would be honored to guide you throughout your mental health journey.

I draw on ACT, CBT, and trauma-informed care in a warm, nonjudgmental space.
I became a counselor because I witnessed the transformative power of being seen, heard, and supported during life's hardest moments. I know how heavy anxiety spirals into worry feel, when past trauma lingers and affects daily life, life transitions leave you lost or overwhelmed, relationships strain under unspoken hurts, or a new baby brings unexpected sadness instead of joy. Having someone walk alongside you through these challenges, or seasons of growth, is profoundly impactful. My passion is helping individuals and couples feel empowered, understood, and equipped for lasting change.

Life can feel overwhelming, overstimulating, and hopeless sometimes.
