Therapists in Louisville, KY

I know that life can get very "murky" at times, and it can be extremely difficult to navigate during those times, with that being said, I hope that our time together will be viewed as a lighthouse experience, offering provision, guidance, protection, safety, light and more as we take on this therapeutic journey together.

Life can be stressful, but when you are confronted with major change, loss or trauma the simplest tasks can feel overwhelming. Therapy can help support, guide and heal current and past events, heal depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, abuse, as well as change patterns that continue to prevent relationship, social and professional goals from being met.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Kentucky. Life is full of change and transitions. We can't always control the events in our lives, but we can choose how we respond to them.

Life can be difficult no matter our situation and it can be helpful to have a support who we know will listen to us with compassion. Over the past 6+ years, I have gained experience working with a variety of concerns from everyday stress to trauma to severe mental illness. As a therapist my entire focus is the well-being of my client and utilizing my experience to assist them in finding peace.

Are thoughts of retirement or making career changes bringing up fear and angst for you? Have you recently become a caregiver for a loved one who is struggling with a chronic illness or have you been diagnosed with a life-threatening chronic illness and are still coming to terms with it? Are you struggling with a relationship loss or a death loss? As we go through life we undergo so many transitions- some planned and some unplanned. If you need a safe space to explore how these transitions are affecting you then I may be the professional for you.

Taking the first step toward your own healing or help for your teen can feel overwhelming, but with the right support it doesn't have to be. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and person-centered environment for each of my clients. My goal is to walk with you on this journey, empowering you or your teen to feel confident in making positive changes.

Starting therapy can be a daunting task, between the fear of being judged and the dread of spending half your session explaining terms or acronyms that make up an integral part of your identity. All you want is to talk to someone who gets you. Maybe you’re navigating the process of coming out; maybe you’re on the cusp of a major transition; or maybe you’re tired of trying to fit yourself in a box that doesn’t seem made for people like you. It can feel lonely, frustrating, and even scary sometimes. I understand.

I have over 20 years experience working in the field of mental health. I love to treat all individuals but specialize in children, teens, and their families. If you are ready to make positive changes in your life, then I am ready to come along side of you and offer you my support and experience.

Hi, I'm Chelsea. My philosophy is deeply rooted into self awareness. The 6 types of basic emotion are sadness, happiness, fear, anger, surprise and disgust. Sometimes we experience the emotions but don’t have the words to describe them. Sometimes we can explain exactly how we feel but struggle to show it. Though we may not have control over the cause of our life obstacles, we have the power of choice and ultimate control over our reaction to said struggles. Knowing the 6 basic emotions and our reactions when experiencing them is the beginning of self awareness. Being self aware affects both our inter- and intrapersonal connections.

I work with couples and individuals who need a systemic perspective on how problems interact in relationships. Then, with my specialized lens, I am able to help clients get “unstuck” after years of no or low quality sex, desire discrepancies, medical issues that create disconnection, and pent up frustrations between partners. I am skilled, humorous, direct, honest, and loving with my clients. And I’m a welcoming, justice oriented, creative thinker who does not judge and is willing to walk alongside you through it all: fear, trauma, doubt, shame, guilt, sadness, and dark nights of the soul.

I work with teens and adults to better cope with trauma, depression, anxiety, significant life changes, LGBTQ+ issues, and existential fatigue. Through a collaborative approach I empower clients to enhance natural resilience while acknowledging sources of pain or discomfort.

Have you been feeling stuck lately? Do you feel a little numb and unfulfilled? Overwhelmed and panicking? Totally shut down? Running up against the same barriers over and over and getting tired of feeling stuck in the same patterns?

In today’s world, we witness a plethora of stressors, which affect our day to day life’s mental health wellbeing. With the increased stress, and exhaustion in routine life, meeting the demands of family, work, and personal goals, especially during the pandemic period, it gets difficult to cope. The restrictions of social distancing has further isolated individuals who are seeking support to manage their overwhelming psycho emotional state. This extent of exertion leads to mental health issues e.g., depression, anxiety. These individuals can be a wife, a mother, a student, a teacher, a doctor, or a mental health professional.

For over 15 years, I have helped clients improve their most important relationships. I have found that when we experience conflict, communication challenges, a lack of emotional/physical intimacy, or have unmet needs, we can struggle to feel complete. Whether I am working with an individual client, a couple, or an entire family system, I can support you in strengthening your intimate relationships. I specialize in maternal mental health (infertility, pregnancy, and postpartum), premarital and marital counseling, parent-child interactions, and extended family (in-laws, siblings, and family of origin) dynamics.

As a therapist, my approach is rooted in compassion and non-judgment. In my practice, I blend various therapeutic modalities, including art, yoga, movement, and body awareness techniques, alongside Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). As a certified Yoga Teacher, I value mindfulness techniques and breath work. I specialize in grief, addiction, recovery, and those affected by spiritual and religious trauma. I approach each client with an open heart and mind as I recognize the bravery it takes to seek out counseling.

Every now and then life has a way of hitting us hard. We believe that when individuals enter counseling they are feeling gridlocked in their current situation and need assistance navigating their way out of the storms. We see counseling as a process by which we guide our clients in exploration and identification of their needs. Through therapeutic techniques we help raise clients' awareness of ineffective behaviors and distorted thinking that may be standing in the way of the change they desire. We take your mental health serious and offer professional and compassionate care. We prioritize making you feel Safe & Seen at Sims.

Therapy is a safe place where individuals can be open and talk about their life and situations that may be difficult or uncomfortable to discuss. I take pride in meeting the client where they are in their journey of life. A main goal of mine is making the client feel comfortable and secure and to help them understand their situation. Most of my experience is working with pre-teens, teenagers, and adults helping them navigate through life circumstances and assisting them with setting goals for sustainable change that they want to make.
