Somatic Therapists in Mount Sterling, KY

Welcome! I want to applaud you for taking the first step to better your situation, and for taking care of yourself. I have over 14 years of direct experience working with adolescents, adults, and seniors suffering from a wide variety of mental health disorders. Some of those include depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, stress, mood disorders, and issues related to abuse. If you are brave, curious, and intelligent, then I'm your therapist! I also offer supervision as a supervisor of record for Licensed Professional Counselor Associates (LPCAs) in Kentucky.

My passion is working with survivors of adulthood and childhood trauma (including religious trauma or religious deconstruction) using both talk therapy and somatic processing/movement (including yoga)

I am passionate about helping clients cultivate personal mastery in their lives and within their relationships. I train clients through scientifically proven techniques to improve and enhance their emotional and mental wellbeing.

Welcome! My name is Nicole and I am a holistic based counselor serving the state of KY via telehealth. I graduated from Marshall University and am licensed as an LPCA. I have a special interest in helping trauma survivors reprocess and heal trauma through EMDR therapy and somatic interventions.

I provide a safe environment for clients to process their issues. I believe that psychotherapy is more than talk therapy. I am excited about the new research and treatments that focus on mind and body (somatic memories). I have an integrative approach to therapy. I work best with complex trauma (emotional and physical, including childhood neglect) and resulting anxiety and depression. I work well with grief related issues (complicated grief) and problems that arise from chronic illnesses.

As the owner and founder of Begin Anew Counseling, it is my goal to create an environment where individuals can begin their journey toward healing and wholeness. I believe my role is to be a partner and support through the therapeutic process. I work to intentionally assist clients in identifying their needs and begin the journey toward meeting those needs more consistently.

The call towards deepening our self-awareness and becoming more embodied in our life takes many forms. Whether it's the end of a relationship, developmental trauma, existential questioning, climate anxiety, or any other unique combination of stressors, I believe that radical healing is possible. My aspiration is to support you in moving towards a deeper sense of intimacy and connection with both your inner world and the world around you. Rather than solely focusing on your diagnosis, we will collaborate to create a sense of an inner compass that you can utilize to build a life that feels alive and aligned with your values.

I am an emerging Licensed Professional Counselor Associate. My ideal clients are children (ages 2 and up), adolescents, teens, and adults that are experiencing difficulties related to stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, self-regulation, adjustment to life changes and transitions, trauma, and grief. . I believe that we have the capacity to use their personal strengths to resolve problems and heal from traumatic and stressful experiences. Every person is different and should be honored for their unique qualities and abilities.

I support clients who identify as sensitive, empathic, intuitive or creative. With a decade of experience providing trauma-focused support, I weave together talk therapy with somatic (body-focused) techniques, energy psychology, therapeutic meditation and energy therapies including reiki and shamanism. My approach supports the holistic self by meeting body, mind, emotion, energy and soul. We all experience ebbs and flows in life, times of thriving and times of struggle. Times of struggle can often manifest as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, or feeling disconnected from the true self.

Pulling from eastern and western modalities, my clients are encouraged to reach for acceptance, integration and personal peace. You are the expert of your experiences, your goals and your healing–I am here to assist you on your journey. I believe that all humans are capable and deserving of healing, and through our work together, I believe you can live out your goals to fruition.

Hello Beautiful Being! Thanks for stopping by. If you’re seeking to expand your consciousness, awaken to your highest purpose, heal trauma, overcome limiting beliefs, or deepen a sense of meaning in your life, then you’re in the right place. My mission as a transpersonal psychologist is to help you release stuck emotions of the past, let go of anxieties about the future, and awaken to your natural state in the present moment, which is love, peace, and joy. I help you transmute your pain into power so you go from surviving to thriving!

Many encounters in life can leave an impression on us that lasts a lifetime. The power to heal lies within us as we recondition the body to hold and receive love.

I most enjoy working with college aged students and adults on a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, disordered eating and body image, life transitions, and perfectionist tendencies. My ideal client is someone who is ready to get to work and motivated to change. They also might describe themself as a people pleaser or a person who cares for others before caring for themself.

In my practice, I specialize in working with adults, adolescents, and couples to help them achieve their goals and bring about positive changes to their lives. My approach is mindfulness based and solution-oriented, emphasizing strengths and guiding clients through emotional barriers. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is based on trust, and is at the core of my practice. With my extensive professional experience, education, and personal life insights, I aim to be a compassionate and effective therapist. My dedication is to guide you in achieving the transformation you seek for yourself, your relationships, and your family.

I believe that we can get stuck in the mire of hopelessness when we feel overwhelmed, or when our circumstances are more than we can handle. If you struggle with navigating your emotions, finding meaning/purpose, overcoming difficult or painful circumstances of the past (flashbacks, avoidance, fear, triggers) or even the present (arguments, emotional angst, numbness, irritation, anxiety, worry, hypervigilance), I want to support you. I specialize in anxiety; depression; eating disorders; relational issues; sex therapy and education, as well as helping folks work through general/sexual trauma using somatic or body-centered methods.

New openings! We all encounter moments that challenge our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. These experiences often leave us feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, and/or we find ourselves us in avoidance. In your therapeutic journey, we’ll focus on the power of incremental and gentle adjustments. It’s the understanding that small changes in perception, behavior, or self-awareness can catalyze significant transformation. Like the smallest pebble creating ripples across a pond, we’ll explore subtle difference bringing about the most meaningful impact.

Every now and then life has a way of hitting us hard. I believe that when individuals enter counseling they are feeling gridlocked in their current situation and need assistance navigating their way out of the storms. I see counseling as a process by which I guide my client in exploration and identification of their needs. Through cognitive and somatic techniques I help raise clients' awareness of ineffective behaviors, toxic cycles, and distorted thinking patterns that may be standing in the way of the changes they desire in life. I believe that transformation begins when we slow down, tune into our bodies, and honor what comes up.

Are you tired of feeling stuck in patterns of stress, overwhelm, or anxiety? Do you feel like you have trauma or emotions stuck in your body? Do you long for a deeper sense of connection with yourself and others? Sleep issues? Do you feel numb like you are just going through the motions? Stuck in fight, fight or freeze? Have you experienced traditional talk therapy but feels like something is missing? If any of these sound like you, you've come to the right place.
