Therapists in Lexington, KY

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I completed my bachelor’s degree in Social Work at the University of Kentucky and the obtained my Masters of Social Work with a clinical concentration from the University of Kentucky in 2018, and have been working in the mental health field ever since! I have a passion of working with children, adolescence, and adults and have worked in a variety of clinical settings. I enjoy working with a variety of mental health concerns, those including, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, substance use, and trauma. I utilize approaches such as CBT, EMDR, and strengths-based.

Hi, I'm Amanda, I am grateful to help clients work through early life traumas and adult attachment, as well as more recent or current traumatic events. I also enjoy working with clients to improve emotional regulation skills to improve overall mood. I am currently licensed in Kentucky and Virginia. I have 8 years experience working with people of all ages, and I am currently working specifically with adults.

I offer a practical, nonjudgmental approach to those wishing to address difficulties or distress in their lives. My objective is to assist clients in meeting their goals through a process of consideration, collaboration, and resource-building.

I have years of training and experience helping those with mental health concerns that hold people back from meeting their full potential. I have 3 years of training in Advanced Psychodynamic through The Wayne Institute and Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute. My practice tailors our approach to healing in the way that which will best meet your needs. My goal is to meet you where you are- together we will come to the resolution you are seeking.

It is a great honor to be chosen to work with people and witness their return to their wholeness and ability to reach their full potential after suffering with stress, anxiety and depression, personality disorders and relationship breakdowns. I specialize in Mindfulness Based Coaching, Counseling and Therapy. Neurological and clinical studies have proven the positive impact of Mindfulness in dealing with mental health suffering through reduced rumination, stress reduction, more cognitive flexibility, less emotional reactivity, increased focus and concentration. I provide quality client-centered services.

“This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.” I strive to create a space where healing occurs - a place where you can sit with difficult thoughts, emotions and behaviors, and develop the tools to transform them. My style is warm and supportive, creating an environment that fosters self-acceptance. I believe in partnering with you to help you unlock blocks to growth and change.

In a world filled with labels and titles, we are all simply human first. Being human means we are all bound to get it wrong sometimes no matter how much we have (or don’t have) figured out. Life is hard, and it’s natural that challenges sometimes cloud the way we see ourselves and the world; however, I believe worthiness is our birthright, and it is my goal as a clinician to help my clients see that their worthiness has no prerequisite and isn’t something to be earned.

Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, and/or depression? Are you finding it difficult to parent your child? Have you struggled with addiction, only to relapse? Do you have a history of trauma that makes building and maintaining relationships difficult? I have worked with individuals struggling with all of these things and believe that we can work together to overcome these obstacles and allow you to fully enjoy all that life has to offer.

Hi, I'm Sydnee! Are you looking to find ways to make life a little easier or learn more about yourself? I work with teens, young adults, and adults to help them grow in the areas they struggle with the most. We will spend our first session getting to know each other and figuring out how we can work best together. After that, our sessions are led by you; what's on your mind, what you're struggling with, and what you need from me.

As an anxiety specialist, I am dedicated to helping you develop a better relationship with your thoughts and harness your innate resilience to overcome life's challenges. I focus on a goal-directed treatment that addresses excessive worry, fears, and panic. As a believer of mind-body integration, I include exposure and response prevention methods with established cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness based techniques throughout treatment. I am also a therapeutic yoga instructor and offer this compliment to therapy to clients.

I love what I do, it is both my purpose and passion. I describe my working style as being one of a navigator. I help individuals navigate their personal struggles, desires/needs, and blind spots. I encourage my clients to take the steering wheel, while I navigate from the passenger seat. My goal is to ensure you maintain the right path and ultimately reach the desired destination. Ask yourself, am I inching closer, each day towards the best version of my life, or am I on the wrong path and going the wrong way? As far as my approach, my job is to adapt to you and figure out which therapeutic modality will be most effective.

I am trained and experienced in EMDR for the reprocessing of painful memories and traumatic events. Disillusionment and suffering are inevitable parts of every life. Wounding from the past has a way of rearing its head when you least expect it, creating anxiety, depression, relational difficulties and much more. God has always been in the business of redeeming broken things, and that means restoration is possible for you! I understand that asking for help feels risky, and I applaud your courage in getting this far - I want to provide a safe space for you to explore your story and its impact on your life.

I believe that you are the expert in your life. I am honored to hear about your experiences and to help you process life events in a safe environment. I am passionate about providing clients with a space to feel seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to help you deepen your understanding of yourself by diving into your past experiences and how they affect you today. I believe that therapy is a relational process. My approach to therapy is multi-faceted and I commonly use a client-centered, relational approach with mindfulness woven into each session.

Perhaps you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disappointed, or like life is just passing you by. Maybe your relationships feel dry and you're having trouble connecting with your loved ones. You might think to yourself, "That's it. I don't want to continue living like this. I want better for myself. I want to enjoy life again." Congratulations to you for embracing this first step toward change. You are brave for this, and I know we can continue to take steps forward together.

We live in a very fast pace world. Responsibilities, pressure to perform professionally and in the personal level. Success is expected from us in all aspects of our lives at all times. Feelings of depression, anxiety, negative thinking and doubts of ourselves can arise from daily pressure and can lead us to failure in our relationships with others and with the world. If you are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, family, parenting, intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, traumatic events, goal achievement, life transitions, and making your life purposeful and meaningful, I can help!

Hi, are you looking to make a change in your life, facing seemingly overwhelming problems, searching for answers for yourself or your child? Are you unsure of where to turn? I would be honored to assist you or your member of your family with defining and reaching goals through evidenced-based collaborative approaches that are empathetic, practical, and action-oriented. I have experience with Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Mindfulness.

I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques that include empowerment and mindfulness. Together, we can identify what's working and/or not working for you, then get you where you want to be personally, as a couple or as a family.

I work with children, adolescents and adults, in varying degrees of distress. Many clients enter their therapeutic relationship with presenting problems which may include depression, anxiety, dysfunction in a primary relationship, or grief and loss. Others present addiction and codependency patterns that cause chronic difficulties with maintaining healthy relationships. Some suffer trauma that remains buried and entangled deep within. All are seeking a new path out of their suffering and into an enlightened experienced of themselves and the world. Together we will seek that fresh perspective, allowing old wounds to heal and creating space for a renewed vision of hope.
