Therapists in Kentucky

I specialize in the treatment of OCD, anxiety disorders, and Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs), such as hair pulling and skin picking. OCD does not always look like handwashing and concerns about germs - sometimes it's intrusive thoughts with the desire for reassurance. OCD frequently fixates on what’s important in a person’s life and common sub-types include worries about health issues, sexuality, fear of pedophilia, harming self/others, contamination, concerns about religion/ morality, or obsessions about relationships. If this sounds like you it is important to know that therapy can help you get your life back!

Life-changing healing is possible. Rebecca has experienced it firsthand in her own life and the lives of her clients!

She provides clients space to process the curve balls life has thrown, and gives them tools to help make practical changes outside sessions to meet their goals.

Do you feel like you've lost your sense of you? Anxiety can often keep us from enjoying or even participating in our lives. Do you feel like you are existing but not living? Is avoidance your best friend? Maybe intrusive thoughts are increasing the anxiety. Maybe, a disturbing thought crosses your mind and you think, "Why would I have a thought like that? This is not who I am." Maybe you can't sleep, you're exhausted, and you miss yourself... the real you. The most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself; nurture the relationship, grow, and evolve.

Helping people is my passion. I believe that individuals suffering from an anxiety related disorder are trapped by their symptoms and, through psychotherapeutic treatment, can find their potential, learning how to live a life of value and purpose.

There are so many things outside of our control that are inevitably difficult to cope with. Even with the unforeseen situations and stressors that life throws our way, the one thing we do have control over is the way we respond to them.

I want to help people strengthen their coping capabilities in an environment that is open, non-judgmental, and collaborative.

I fully believe that we all have the ability to be better, in many ways. We can learn to adjust , adapt, change, and be in control. We can learn to control our emotions, behaviors, actions, and thoughts. Awareness and mindfulness is attainable, we can learn this, and thus control the outcomes of our lives. We can't control the world around us, but we can control ourselves, and therefore, dictate how we live our lives, happy, and fulfilled.
