Culturally Sensitive Therapists in Louisville, KY

Taking new clients now! I specialize in working with teenagers and young adults. I also work with children ages 5 and older and with their parents. With a deep understanding of the challenges faced by individuals in this age group, I believe I can provide a safe and supportive environment for you or your child to explore your concerns and develop healthy strategies for love and healing. I have developed a particular interest in the areas of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, spiritual harm, and concerns faced by those in the LGBTQIA+ community.

Whether you're experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, developmental trauma, addiction or any unique combination of stressors, I believe that radical healing is possible. Rather than focusing solely on your diagnosis, we will work together to understand the root causes of your symptoms and co-create an actionable path towards healing. 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.

Life can be hard, sometimes we need a little support to meet our full potential. Having someone who can get you there may be the missing piece.

Are you tired of your struggle with anxiety? Do you worry or obsess excessively? I specialize in providing treatment for anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), social anxiety, and phobias to children, teens, and adults. I also work with individuals who suffer from depression, tic-related disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and skin-picking disorder (excoriation). I specialize in using the gold standard treatment for OCD: exposure with response prevention (ERP). I specialize in using Acceptance & Commitment Therapy to treat OCD & the above-mentioned conditions.

Working with you means having someone who truly listens to your pain, no matter its form. Whether it's anxiety, depression, shame, or fear, I'm here to walk beside you, helping you not just cope - but thrive. In a world that often tells us to bear our burdens alone, especially under the pressures of society, culture, or family, it can all become overwhelming. This pain can seep into every facet of our lives. You deserve a compassionate, empathetic space to release the pain you've been carrying for so long.

I'm here to listen and to help; never to judge or make things worse. Trauma and anxiety are hard and life is weird, having support is often what helps us through the hard things.

Welcome! I have extensive experience working with clients who have experienced significant physical, verbal and emotional trauma and abuse. I also have had the pleasure of supporting clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflict, relationship/ family issues, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and PTSD, among other issues. I want to help clients to process their past, then work to set and achieve goals for the future they envision. I enjoy helping my clients find freedom in living the life they love.

Healthy relationships exist among people and groups who are willing and able to meet each other's needs. In my experience conflict and distress arise when a person's needs are not met. I am committed to helping clients identify, name, and define their needs in order to create better circumstances to achieve them. The specific areas I find most helpful are intrapersonal, relational, and spiritual.

I believe that every individual, couple or family is unique and deserving of dignity, respect and the right to define happiness and fulfillment in the ways most meaningful to them. Unfortunately, sometimes, our life experiences and unresolved trauma can present barriers and obstacles to achieving our goals to be our best versions of ourselves. You are taking an incredibly brave first step by being here and searching for a professional whose profile and experience resonate with your needs. You are to be commended for making a decision to seek support.

Hi, I’m Erin. I help people navigate change with psychotherapy and modalities including CBT, mindfulness, and EMDR. Together we work through intense feelings and events that cause immense pain or stress. This could look like loss, relationships, family changes, becoming a parent, careers, chaos and transitions, or inability to identify any one thing. You might describe yourself as feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, and just “stuck,” not able to live life with purpose and happiness. Maybe you have tried everything to make changes and nothing seems to be working.

Phoenix Preferred Care provides individual counseling, family counseling, and collateral support to clients of all ages. Our staff are trauma-informed and work collaboratively with clients from a strengths-based approach using evidenced-based treatment.

The team of helpers at Acadia Counseling is ready to assist you with whatever is weighing you down. Maybe you have never attended counseling before. Maybe you tried it once or twice and didn't like the professional you saw. Whatever your situation, we are ready to help!

Finding the right therapist can be a time consuming and costly process. Many people have tried medication management or traditional talk therapy- yet nothing has worked. The question isn't why treatment hasn't worked, but what is stopping or preventing the healing process? What's getting in the way of the natural healing response? If you've been seeking a new way to help manage your symptoms, psychedelic-assisted therapy may be a fit for you. To heal, one needs to be in a healing state, not in an activated stress state. Just because therapy hasn't worked in the past doesn't mean it can't work for you now. Don't give up just yet

With our world increasingly changing every day, feelings of ‘uncertainty’ are constantly on the rise. Often, we can find it difficult to consistently meet the challenges and demands of our given lifestyle. But add to this that we are frequently taken to task by a ‘surprise unknown’ or two: Lost jobs. Lost relationships. Health issues. Even a lost childhood pulling at you. Maybe all of the above, and then some! Of course, each of us tries to meet these unknowns to the best of our ability. And at times even our absolute best efforts won’t get us back on course.

Navigating life with all of its twists and turns can be very overwhelming. It can be difficult to figure out which pathway to choose towards stability, understanding and comfortability. I believe we can find our way by connecting our emotions, thoughts and feelings to our reality. I am passionate about slowing down our thoughts, engaging our emotions and finding connection points along the way.

Looking for more clarity in your life? Feel like you're missing something or being left behind? Tired of feeling stuck? Do you have painful unspoken memories or experiences? My hope is to help you identify your problems and assist in creating solutions. I believe in establishing a trusting relationship that creates opportunity for potential, growth and clarity around a variety of issues.

Change can be frightening and growth that results from changes in our life or sadly a crisis can be challenging or debilitating. Relationships at home and work maybe urging you to make changes. Perhaps you’ve found that everything has changed, moved on or away and that has caused a crisis, pain or an imbalance in your life. What you’ve used to cope with in the past to manage sorrow, dispair, stress, anxiety, grief or the unfinished business in your life your work and relationships may not be working for you any longer. Life is urging you to do things differently and make those changes that this process can help and heal.

Most of my clients come to me having felt that something is "not right" in their life. Maybe their relationships are struggling, they are unhappy at work or school, or they are finding it difficult to keep up with all the changes in their lives. I enjoy partnering with both adults and adolescents (and their families). My work with adults tends to focus on self-esteem and self-acceptance, interpersonal conflicts, anxiety, and life transitions. I also enjoy working with adolescents who struggle with anxiety and self-esteem, are experiencing school failure or difficulty, or are struggling to cope with life's changes in healthy ways.

Do you feel like your life and relationships are spinning out of control? Sometimes life can throw punches...that we're not prepared for. We often feel as if nobody understands or can hear our frustrations. I offer you a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental environment to discuss life issues. It is important to me that my clients feel comfortable and have the freedom to discuss what ever life brings their way. I invite my clients the opportunity to heal, revive, and restore their life, relationships, and mind.
