Stress Therapists in Louisville, KY
You push through stress that other people step away from...
In therapy, we work toward real calm, not avoidance. You learn how your temperament, history, and nervous system interact so reactions stop feeling mysterious or uncontrollable. Then we practice concrete ways to interrupt worry loops, regulate emotions, and rebuild energy so you can be present at work and at home.

Waitlist for new clients
Many of my clients have spent years people-pleasing or pushing through stress while ignoring their own needs.
Sometimes your mind just doesn't stop. It replays conversations, spirals into what-ifs, and turns even simple decisions into something overwhelming. Many of the clients I work with quietly battle anxiety...overthinking everything, feeling pressure to be "on," and carrying guilt or self-doubt when they try to set boundaries. They often look like they're holding everything together from the outside but feel burned out, disconnected from what they need, and unsure how to slow down."

When these needs are not met, we may feel depressed, anxious, stressed, or easily distracted.
Welcome to counseling. If you're even searching for a therapist, you've started the process. Your gut tells you life isn't what you need it to be but you're not sure how to make it better. You're right about counseling: it truly can help. In therapy, the therapist and the client work as a team to accomplish goals. You may be unsure of those goals. I can help you figure out what they are and how to make progress.
I'm a certified Choice Theory/Reality Therapy counselor. What does this mean for you? It means I view life from a perspective of individual needs.

I work with adults navigating everyday stress, grief, complicated family dynamics, life transitions, and all the ways the world can feel overwhelming.
I also welcome conversations about women’s issues, identity, relationships, and the ways larger systems and structural inequities impact our mental health. Therapy doesn’t happen in a vacuum, and sometimes it’s important to talk about the bigger context we’re living in.
As a liberal, lesbian therapist, I strive to provide an affirming and safe space.

Are you tired of feeling stuck in patterns of stress, overwhelm, or anxiety?
Unlike talk therapy, which primarily engages the mind, somatic work recognizes that our emotions are not intellectual constructs—they're deeply rooted in the body. By tapping into the wisdom of the body, releasing stored trauma and engaging in practices that regulate the nervous system, we can access profound levels of healing and release.

Therapy can feel hard. That’s ok. The good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a safe space where you can be yourself–a place where you won’t have to struggle with your thoughts and feelings in isolation. You may be here because you’re looking for symptom relief–you want to be comfortable in your own skin, feel better about your life. We’ll talk about your goals for therapy and explore creative ways to help you reach them. Because no one person is the same, there’s no one-size-fits-all therapy approach. You have unique needs, and we’ll collaborate so that your therapy journey feels tailored to you.

Open to working with just about anyone but especially interested in first responders, firefighters, medics, police, teachers and others who often deal with high stress and acute vicarious trauma.
Yes, accepting new clients! Sometimes it's nice to have a trained person in your back pocket who isn't a spouse, life partner, friend, sibling or co-worker who will actively listen and collaborate to make sense of everything. Each client is different and we'll work to figure out the right approach for you. I hope I'm a thoughtful, authentic, creative catalyst to increased self-awareness and personal growth. In all likelihood, we'll laugh a little because you almost have to nowadays. I love educating and empowering people as a long-term strategy to overcome adversity and believe effective counseling has to be a partnership.

Are you feeling overwhelmed?
While I will work with you from a foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I will utilize Mindfulness and Self-Compassion to further guide our collaboration in a confidential, nonjudgmental environment. And, if you are someone who values specific spiritual beliefs, we may be able to incorporate your related practices into the process as well.

Do you ever wonder why the same stress, relationship struggles, or self-doubt keep showing up even when the circumstances change?
My approach combines practical tools with deeper insight to help you create meaningful, lasting change rather than temporary relief. We'll explore the roles, beliefs, and protective strategies that may have once served you well but no longer fit the life or relationships you want to create.

You’re the one keeping everything moving — the schedules, the needs, the details that only you seem to notice. But in the middle of all that giving, who’s taking care of you?
I understand that tension well. As a therapist, I work with Christian women who are carrying a great deal of responsibility — in their homes, their relationships, and their communities.
Together, we create space for you to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and find renewed strength rooted in your faith.
You don’t have to keep running on empty. Healing is possible — and you deserve it too.

Understanding what stress is, how it plays into your life, and ways to make peace with it with useful coping skills.
You just want the pain, chaos, and emptiness you feel to go away once and for all. Whether it is eating secretly to comfort yourself, having to drink every night to sleep, pushing yourself to achieve, or isolating yourself. Attempting to balance family, work, and your self-care can feel overwhelming and tends to end with you feeling worse about yourself and how you can't get it together. Shame and guilt keep you stationary where you are, and if you had to admit that things were not where you wanted you might actually crumble. Let's figure out a new normal, together.
