Cancer Therapists in Shelbyville, KY

Even in the 21st century, "having issues" still carries a stigma. Therapists are here to help you make your life better, but we are still not fully understood by the public. I'm guilty of not understanding dentists. I went to the dentist "only when" the pain was so bad I couldn't stand it, or "only when" I had to have a tooth yanked. Only in mid-life, after years of misery, did I understand dentists as being real doctors. Now, I respect the connection between healthy gums and healthy heart and I spare myself the prolonged anguish.

Heuser Hearing Institute Integrative Counseling & Wellness Clinic provides in-clinic, telehealth and video remote sessions for individuals, families and caregivers of all ages to cope with the stress and practical challenges of life, hearing health, as well as for those in need of connection to Community Health Navigation and/or other community-based resources. We offer patient-centered assessment, diagnosis and counseling services, integrative traditional and modern therapy approaches. We work with patients experiencing stress during sudden or progressive illness, traumatic brain injuries, hearing loss and ear-related disorders

I have 30 years of mental health therapy experience. I have a general practice with an emphasis on family issues, including adolescents, couples therapy and substance abuse. I provide a laid back atmosphere for therapy that is both welcoming and warm to make each client feel comfortable.

Now Accepting New Clients I believe that you know your life best and that I am here as a companion as we move towards growth. I work collaboratively with my clients, holding compassion and my client's needs at the center of our work. I enjoy working with late adolescents and adults. I specialize in issues such as anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship struggles, exploring sexual orientation/expression, religious trauma, and those in the LGBTQIA+ community. My job as a therapist is to support, engage with empathy and wonder, offer hope, and acknowledge the stories and experiences clients express as they reflect.

Our ideal client is open to and motivated for change. We work with individuals, couples, and families facing a variety of life challenges, including infertility, grief and loss, work stress, life transitions, child behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders. At this time, we are providing virtual services and in-person services (on a limited basis).

Is anxiety part of your life? Do you or your child struggle with uncertainty? Do you find yourself feeling like you have to do something over and over again to deal with stress and worry? Does your child miss school or complain of sickness often? Perhaps Dr. Nate Mitchell can help.

We all want to feel joyfull and fullfilled in our lives and relationships. The 30+ years I have been in practice include running treatment centers for healing child abuse, teaching / college level, national seminars, and training other therapists. I am licensed as both a clinical social worker and an addictions therapist. My experience and training has also allowed me to integrate clinical knowledge and cultural ways of life from elders. I help people achieve change through insight and solutions based in consciousness of internal and external conflicts.

Working with a therapist is nothing to be ashamed of. Sometimes we all need to work through the highs and lows in our lives and strive to reach our goals that we have for ourselves. As a therapist, I am here to assist the client through processing their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with no judgement and be supportive to my clients while helping them meet their individualized goals.

In this rapidly changing world, stress, anxiety, and depression will sometimes take hold of your mind. This could leave you feeling on the edge of an emotional cliff. At these times it is okay, and important to reach out for a hand up. My early training in chemical dependency, hospice, and trauma counseling has equipped me to guide you through the reduction of many life problems.

I use the Family Systems theory approach while identifying family of origin roles and patterns. Using a cognitive behavioral approach in helping clients identify thinking patterns that impact self-esteem and the choices one makes, I can guide you to new thought patterns that will raise the quality level of your life in many ways. Mood disorder therapy, including Bipolar Disorder and Major Depression, is a vital instrument for those affected. Medication assessment and management referral resources are available to compliment psychotherapy. Think in new ways, feel new emotions, live with a new view of you and your world.

Welcome, and congratulations on taking this step on your journey! I see the courage and strength that have brought you this far, and I’m excited for the growth and healing ahead of you. I have a holistic and collaborative approach to therapy. Before I ever sat across from someone as a therapist, I went into the community with instructions to practice partnership and reciprocity, build capacity, create sustainable solutions, and always reflect to continue learning and growing. That is how I approach my work with clients as well.

Are you tired of listening to those negative thoughts that constantly swirl around in your head? Are you exhausted from the act of coping with daily life? Would you like a safe place to explore those thoughts and feelings? Call me to set up an appointment and we can work together to "quiet the chatter" in your head.

Whether you have experienced a recent setback or are trying to come to terms with an ongoing struggle, my goal is to be an unbiased listener providing reflective and direct feedback to help you gain insight and clarity. I am a gender-affirming therapist specializing in working with those in a life transition, struggling with their identity, or looking to evolve from the way they were raised. In couples counseling, I work with monogamous, open/poly, and kink relationships.

I believe everyone has the power within themselves to heal, grow, and change. I can be the person who helps you unlock your beautiful, authentic, inner spirit no matter what your age, background, or lifestyle. My therapeutic interventions vary with the needs of the people who entrust me to participate in their journey. I am a believer of living in the here-and-now; being present; being mindful; and living for today.

It's my passion helping people get what they want in their life and relationships. I help INDIVIDUALS make changes and overcome obstacles to get what they want in life and with the people they care about. I help COUPLES reconnect and revitalize their relationship. I work with FAMILIES to break through patterns and blocks, and begin to enjoy each other and create the home they dream of.
