Self-Harming Therapists in Lyndon, KY

I am passionate about helping individuals manage their mental health so that they can experience peace in their lives and relationships. I received my doctorate in family science and a master's degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of Kentucky. I have a strong background in improving mental health and well-being in the context of relationships, especially when there is risk of self-harm. Many people define themselves and their family members in a limited way, often forgetting the vast potential that each person embodies.

My name is Dr. Britta Caudill, Born and raised in eastern Kentucky, I am a doctorate-level licensed clinical social worker committed to helping people address their mental and behavioral health struggles. I hold a doctorate in clinical social work from the University of Kentucky with an emphasis on trauma response, and I am on track to be a certified first responder counselor within the next couple of months. I will be one of eight CFRCs in Kentucky and the only doctorate-level provider. I have over fourteen years of experience in a social work mental health setting.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and group therapy. In addition to more traditional counseling techniques, I also offer yoga, mindfulness, and EMDR therapies as a way to help clients work through distress and build resiliency.

You made it here so you are one step closer to getting the help you deserve. Congratulations! I am a LCSW based out of Southern, Kentucky but originally from Middle Tennessee. I made my way to the beloved Commonwealth of Kentucky to complete my undergraduate degree, Applied Human Sciences with a focus on family and child studies, at Western Kentucky University (WKU). Go Tops! I liked WKU enough that I stuck around for another two years where I completed my Masters in Social Work.

I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.

My clients ages range from 13 - 65+ and come from all walks of life with varying difficulties that arise from the human condition. It is my goal to work along side you to help you navigate life's struggles and develop the skills you need.

Dr. Gilbert specializes in difficulties associated with the impact of post-traumatic stress disorder. He is also a specialist in the treatment of complex psychological trauma and its associated impulsive behaviors and actions including self-harm, chronic suicidality and suicidal actions, dyscontrolled anger, and the quickly shifting mood states and interpersonal chaos that often accompany these struggles.  Additional areas of interest include mindfulness-based approaches to health and wellness, cycling mood disorders, depression, men’s issues, relationship concerns, and most general mental health difficulties.

It is our mission to make the world a happier place, one household at a time. Our expert Child and Family Counselors help families turn homes of chaos and pain into homes of happiness and healing by providing safe space to connect in the therapy room, tools to connect better with family at home, and inspiration for a deeper connection with the world around us. Our approach is creative, collaborative, and centered on the belief that every voice matters.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is affirming, collaborative and excited to work with you and your family. I use of animal assisted therapy, play, narrative and non-verbal processing tools to help families write new stories. With these tools, we can treat a variety of issues, from low self-esteem, challenging family transitions, anxiety, PTSD, depression, and ADHD. I enjoy working with families of all ages, but I especially enjoy working with teens as they go through such an important phase of life.

Life is a series of transitions - some peaks and some valleys. I find these valleys often are a result of internal conflict and external events or pressure. I believe that we all have an authentic self and much of the internal conflict comes from living inauthentically, which develops into maladaptive behaviors. There’s “the way it seems” and “the way it is,” and sometimes we all need someone to remind us of “the way it is.” That’s where I come in - my goals are to work TOGETHER with you to navigate a new path toward living your most authentic life and finding inner peace and confidence to be that person.

In my practice, I focus on nurturing emotional development and healing for clients aged birth to 30, helping them overcome challenges like anxiety, depression, and trauma. I believe authentic healing requires understanding root causes, so I establish a safe, supportive environment for clients to genuinely explore their emotions and needs. My approach prioritizes uncovering underlying issues over symptom management and building trust to empower clients to express themselves openly and without judgment.

Beginning therapy can be an overwhelming and courageous step, which can lead to powerful change for those doing the work. I believe we are at our bravest when we feel it the least. The therapy process can help individuals gain additional perspectIve, identify unknown parts, reinterpret fears and weaknesses, recognize and nurture strengths.

I am a licensed LCSW/LCAC/LCADCA in Kentucky/Indiana with 7 years of clinical work experience and over 5 years of working with various populations. I attended Bellarmine University with a concentration in Psychology. I have a BSW and an MSSW from The Kent School of Social Work. I have experience in helping clients heal through stress, anxiety, substance abuse, childhood/lifetime trauma, PTSD, borderline personality, depression, self-esteem, family conflict, sexual dysfunction, professional career stress, and anger management.
