Culturally Sensitive Therapists in Louisville, KY

Accepting new PRIVATE pay clients and couples. You’ve done all of the things. There’s still more you’re wanting. The “usual” hasn’t helped and you’re wanting something to give, to shift, to change. You are ready and that’s what brings you here. It's time to get creative and experience something different. I am eager to help you find that. Clients often report learning useful tools or new perspectives when working with me while other clients say that their issues suddenly improved with our talking and they can’t articulate just how. It is an honor to collaborate with bright individuals and create a more meaningful existence.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Kentucky with 6 years experience working with people making change in their life. I have worked with people challenged by depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and life changing situations.

Many of my clients come to therapy because they know life has more to offer. Perhaps they would like to have more self-confidence, improved relationships, a greater sense of purpose, or an overall state of contentment and joy. Sometimes these realities feel out of reach. They may lack the knowledge or tools to reach their goals or perhaps they are not sure where to begin. There may be habits or ways of coping that sabotage or derail their progress. As your therapist I will be your guide and companion on your journey to overcome these challenges.

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.

My name is Shameka Sells-Moore. I know that life can be overwhelming. As your therapist, I can help you deal with life's changes without judgement. My goal is to assist you with enhancing your life and discovering your purpose. It is my job to walk with you through your therapeutic process toward healing and change.

Hi! I’m Janelle. I’m a licensed psychologist, and I specialize in working with entrepreneurial women. I understand the pressure and stress that come along with owning a business. It’s easy to be consumed by your work and to struggle with balancing work with all the other areas of your life. You often feel spread too thin and like you’re not doing a good enough job in any of the areas in your life. You feel you’re not a “good enough” business owner, partner, mother, daughter, colleague, etc. even though you're trying so hard!

Are you struggling to find balance in your life? Let's work together to increase your self-confidence, control, and happiness! I enjoy working with adults in crisis. Anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and trauma are just a few of the areas of focus in my practice. It is my belief that no individual should face mental health challenges alone. Trained therapists can help clients overcome the challenges that seem insurmountable and may decrease their ability to enjoy life, set and achieve goals, and look forward to a brighter future.

I am an experienced clinician providing support to individuals and families on a long continuum of mental health challenges - from managing adjustment issues to complex experiences of trauma and abuse. My overall focus is to increase adaptive thinking and life skills to effectively manage challenges such as depression, anxiety, situational stress, or persistent patterns of unhelpful behavior choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person Centered Therapy are my primary modalities of psychotherapy intervention.

I work with people that are going through lifes hardships including but not limited to, trauma, childhood abuse, depression, marital conflict, anxiety, and general relationship problems. I believe that each person has the ability to heal and find the answers they are looking for. I am honored when clients allow me to walk with them on that journey. I do my best to provide a compassionate and caring atmosphere for each client.

Let's work together in a journey toward living your BEST life! Practicing for over 16 years I've learned an effective therapeutic process is a collaborative effort built on trust and mutual respect. My approach to counseling is warm, supportive, and engaging. I truly value creating an environment that is inviting and non-judgmental, so the individuals I work with feel free to be open and honest about the struggles they are facing. Among other life challenges, I specialize in treating depression, relationship issues, and major personal loss. I also offer professional development coaching from early-career to seasoned professionals.

Many people realize it's time to start processing their past to move forward in becoming their best selves. It can feel overwhelming to process past experiences & learn new habits in a society that promotes comparison. Weekly Healing’s mission is to support clients in their healing journey.

Through a therapeutic relationship, we aim to help you feel confident in advocating and caring for yourself as you process past trauma & heal inner wounds. Our joint purpose will be to help you live fully and purposefully.

My ideal client is someone who recognizes the need for change in their life, but may not know how to go about it to produce positive results. I treat adults and teens who are struggling with trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, and relationship /situationship issues. In addition, cultivating self-awareness and figuring out what goals you have is a big part of therapy no matter what you come in with and is something everyone could benefit from. Being open to talk about hard things is difficult, but also very brave. I see it as a privilege to get to work with those who are ready to make that step in a safe validating environment.

I work with children and teens who are struggling. As a parent, you may notice your child feels overly sad, tired, unmotivated and withdrawn. Some have sleep changes and excessive worry. Others become irritable, argumentative, and have frequent conflict with peers and/or caregiver relationships. School grades may drop. Other problems may include extreme mood swings, self-harm, and aggression. Reactions may seem over-reactive or "melodramatic". Both children and caregivers become frustrated, angry, sometimes even hopeless. Sometimes both of you need support and guidance in meeting these challenges.
