Are you looking for someone passionate about helping you overcome obstacles, achieve happiness, or discover your life purpose? Finding my own recovery and faith, along with helping others conquer challenges similar to my own, are major motivators for my personal mission and professional work. I see my career less as a job and more as a calling. My heart is to make a difference in your life and to help you overcome anxiety, depression, and emotional pain. So, really, each encounter is an opportunity, a chance to give back some of what I’ve been given.

I help LGBTQ+ folks who struggle with anxiety and self-esteem to improve relationships with themselves and others. Perhaps you struggle with confidence issues, overthinking, perfectionism, & lack deeper connections. You likely grew up in an unsupportive environment or town. You seek ways to support and better understand yourself. You're wanting to increase self-compassion and self-love as a queer person (living in the South ain't easy!). You're ready to work on patterns and pain that prevent you from connecting to others. Maybe you're feeling stuck and unsure how to come out, or need some support loving an LGBTQ person in your life.

Visit www.freedomwellness.org. Most people come to counseling because something has become too difficult to manage and previous coping has become ineffective at gaining control. The journey toward change is possible only when we learn to "relate differently" to that "something". Tomorrow begins with a glimpse of what you are becoming...not who you have been or what has happened. Follow the wisdom of Lao Tzu in a journey of a thousand miles beginning with a single step and let us begin your journey toward personal, ongoing, therapeutic change.

Have you sought out therapy in the past, only to find it to be a short-term solution to a long-term problem? Have you experienced chronic relapses of your mental health symptoms or substance use? Have you had multiple mental health professionals diagnose you with differing conditions that never felt like the right diagnosis? Is it possible that you have yet to have a provider address the underlying issues, such as complex trauma or chronic PTSD symptoms? My passion is working with individuals where substance use and trauma intersect.

Pain is real, but so is the Hope. Too many times we focus on our current pain and can't see past it to the healing and growth that come. Sometimes you just need someone to come along side of you and help, that's what I'm here for. I specialize in areas of trauma, adjustment, addiction and domestic violence with adults, children and families. I believe in destroying the negative labels that we place on ourselves in order to fulfill the roles we choose such as parent, spouse, bother/sister and such. Problems large or small, old or new, should not hold us back from where we need to be.

“We are all born same, we are completely cute, innocent, sweet, and we need that reflection of ourselves as little human beings to live, …” – Anneke Lucas. Hello, I’m Bill, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) located in Bowling Green, Kentucky. It seems that life can sometimes take a bit of the cuteness, innocence, and sweetness away. It is important to remember that our need for belonging and attachment continues throughout life and is not outgrown. If anything, the need may grow to seemingly greater levels. When our needs are not met, the response may be one of experiencing emptiness in life and low self-esteem.

Over the past 18 years I have found clients seeking my assistance who are searching for ways to improve their lives. Many times we find ourselves either stuck or unable to break free from the thoughts, feelings or behaviors that seem to drag us down. Many people find it helpful to be able to voice their struggles to someone who will be non judgmental or condemning. I have found that people want to renew their hope for a better tomorrow, others need to regain their inner strength, while others long for a new vision of what their life could be.

Male Therapists

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?

There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?

Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?

Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?

Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
