Parenting Therapists in Tompkinsville, KY

At Evolving Lives LLC, I provide therapy to adults, youth, and families who are seeking relief from a wide array of barriers in their life. These could range from stress, anxiety, depression, grief, life adjustments, trauma, relationship difficulties, and parenting challenges. I collaborate with clients to help them envision the life they desire to have, what their personal strengths are, and small, manageable steps they can take towards their goals.

I help women and children who just haven’t felt like themselves lately; fatigued, moody, anxious, stressed. You used to feel like you were thriving in life, and then depression or anxiety crept in. You look back and wonder what changed and are unsure how to get back to feeling like your best self, or just YOU again. Or maybe it's your "once-so-sweet" child who is acting out or fearful and stressed all the time. Problems in school, lack of focus, and behavioral changes can all be part of stress, depression, or anxiety - not your parenting! Through supportive counseling, we can help you or your child RE-flourish in life.

You might be thinking that parenting isn’t at all what you imagined. Perhaps you are overwhelmed and unable to reach out or accept help. You may have felt alone in your struggles or experiencing relationship tension with unbearable pain. No one truly prepares you for the emotional challenges and isolation that can come with parenthood. I understand the weight of these feelings and want you to know that you’re not alone. I’m here to help you find calm and regain confidence.

My name is Kimberly. I am a graduate from Western Kentucky University. I graduated with my Masters Degree in Social Work in 2021. I welcome anyone that walks through the door with no judgment and open arms. I want to help you during this time in your life and I intend to help you reach your goals and help you grow. I practice a very person-centered, strength-based approach. This is your issue, need, or goal. You are driving the car. I am just in the passenger seat with a map ready to guide you.

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.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. You deserve a life worth living! Whether you are a parent looking for a therapist to work with your child/teenager or an adult struggling to find their purpose in life, you have the ability to become the best version of yourself. As your therapist, I would help you discover your strengths & develop a confidence in your abilities to better understand your emotions and make life more meaningful.

Your feelings are valid. You are stronger than you believe. You know yourself best. I am here to help you believe those things about yourself. In my work with you, I'll commit to honoring your goals first and empower you to use your strengths to foster personal growth. If lacking a sense of direction brings you to my office, we'll work to enhance your connectedness between body and mind, your confidence in implementing skills that foster internal peace, and your clarity in setting attainable goals.

Mission Statement: We treat every single person with unconditional positive regard. Our primary goal is to offer a safe place without judgement to our community. We meet people where they are and help them move forward and achieve their goals. We are currently working toward a model of treatment that includes a more complete assessment including daily living, nutrition, physical activity, and collaboration with other providers. We are excited to be offering quality mental health services to Grayson and surrounding counties.

Life is full of changes and sometimes we need additional emotional support in times of transition. Personal issues can make it very difficult for us to seek help and contemplating seeing a therapist is a difficult decision for many people dealing with the circumstances life creates. Sometimes once we have made the decision to seek help we have a hard time creating the time for therapy and self-care. Teletherapy video sessions are now offered to support those interested in investing in self-care from the comfort of their own environment including new parents experiencing anxiety, depression, fatigue, etc.

I use multiple approaches to treatment and I’m certified in EMDR therapy (since 2016). Telehealth services are available to all Vermont, Florida, & Kentucky residents. There is currently a waitlist for an in office/insurance appointment, online/cash pay telehealth appointments can be scheduled online at www.amandaportman.com or by contacting me via phone/email.

If you are seeking a therapist, you have come to the right place. Often times we find ourselves faced with struggles that we are unsure how to maneuver through independently. My name is Candace and I am currently providing services at Abiding Hope Counseling in Greensburg, KY as well as offering telehealth throughout the state of Kentucky. I have been practicing as a clinician since 2015. My goal as a therapist is to help individuals, with compassion and without judgement, find happiness within themselves, gain insight to their stressors, as well as achieve fulfillment in everyday life.

You or your loved ones may face various challenges, seeking answers, support, and guidance. As a parent, you might be concerned about your child's development, educational progress, or social interactions. College students may be grappling with career choices and vocational interests. Individuals might be struggling with emotional and behavioral issues impacting their daily lives. By seeking my expertise, you invest in personalized solutions that empower you or your child to thrive. Together, we'll navigate these challenges, fostering growth and resilience.
