Passport Health Plan Therapists in Saint Matthews, KY

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.

Though you may be reluctant, you’ve noticed a pattern in your life of a lack of fulfillment in your relationships. You have wondered about why this might be, you have tried to look inward, to get advice... for some reason, it seems that you've not been able to get at the root of the issue. You find that this has led to feelings of unrest in your life. During the best times, you're able to focus on your other accomplishments, but have a nagging insecurity about not being able to conquer intimacy. At the worst of times, you feel despair, fear abandonment and have anxious thoughts that feel uncontrollable.

You’ve thought about therapy, but you hear a voice inside that is hesitant. It asks, "Will they judge my sexual orientation, my gender identity, my dating life, my choices, or my views on faith? Will they see me as an entire person with a complex web of interests, hopes, and desires; or will they just see me as my presenting problems? Will they work with me to reach creative solutions; or will they just label me with a diagnosis and try to ‘fix’ me with a workbook?” You deserve a therapist who celebrates your individuality, who views YOU as the expert of your own experience, and who honors the unique parts of your life.

For as long as I can remember I have loved to listen, help and encourage others. As a therapist I am honored to be asked to share a part of your journey, to help you seek, grow and/or learn more about yourself, to confront what may be holding you back, and to discover strategies on how to pursue your dreams and reach your goals. I am here to listen and share in your journey of healing while providing you with an empathetic, compassionate and safe environment.

Accepting new clients! Have you ever wondered if therapy is for you? Well, I'm here to tell you that therapy is for everyone. Whether you are struggling with adjusting to life's curve balls, anxiety, depression, or substance use; My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space where you and I can reduce any mental suffering that you may be facing, and help develop new ways to live life to your fullest potential.

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 like to help clients with a variety of issues, including adjusting to significant life stressors, relationship conflicts, work difficulties, time management, recent losses, and setting effective boundaries to improve daily functioning. I also love to help clients who are experiencing issues with gender dysphoria, confusion with sexuality, gender identity, and connecting them with groups in the community.

I believe treatment should be navigated delicately and without judgement. We are more than our current situation, which is why I work to understand what it took to get you where you are today, including your strengths. I take a holistic approach to healing, while also utilizing evidence-based methods such as EMDR, art therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, and various talk therapy modalities, helping you process and tap into feelings that you may have struggled to find or articulate. Sometimes our human experience can affect us in ways we wish it didn’t, and I'd like to help you improve in areas that need most attention.

I am passionate about meeting the needs of individuals and families affected by chronic illness. I have worked the past 12 years with adults and their care partners living with a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, Stroke, Migraine, Epilepsy and ALS. I have witnessed families that have been destroyed by the introduction of a chronic illness into the family system leading to loss of passion and purpose in lives.
