I coach parents and provide them with specific skills to utilize in dealing with children with ADHD, acting out teens, teens that are beyond control and children that are using heroin (as well as other drugs).
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years experience as a therapist in private practice. Prior to my practice I served as a Protective Service Specialist, Juvenile Delinquency Specialist and Juvenile Court Liaison Specialist for the state of Kentucky. I worked with families and children dealing with abuse, depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress. I especially enjoy working with troubled and challenging adolescents. I see many ADHD adults and as well as ADHD children. I have developed a Psychotherapeutic Horseback Riding Program for all ages. This program has benefited those who are shy and withdrawn.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Louisville, KY provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Louisville build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
