Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Winchester, KY

Therapy is about connecting with another person in such a way that you feel understood and valued, while trusting that your best interest is being served. There are many different ways to achieve this goal. My approach centers on working with people to understand their unique values and beliefs, which ultimately guides their experiences, and developing goals and strategies together to work toward their desired outcome. By asking the question, "what does better look like?", you are already on your way.

I enjoy working with clients from every background. I believe therapy is a collaborative process with the overall goal being to address your concerns or issues in a manner that works specifically for you. I traditionally work from a Cognitive/Behavioral viewpoint, but also integrate family systems and insight oriented approaches. I believe treatment is a collaborative endeavor and I strive to work with clients in the manner that is most helpful to them.

Are you feeling sad, lacking energy, and feeling like something is wrong all of the time? Has your mood been up and down and you've found it hard to get along with people, particularly those closest to you? Have you started using drugs and alcohol in amounts that concern you and are impacting your day to day life?

In a world filled with labels and titles, we are all simply human first. Being human means we are all bound to get it wrong sometimes no matter how much we have (or don’t have) figured out. Life is hard, and it’s natural that challenges sometimes cloud the way we see ourselves and the world; however, I believe worthiness is our birthright, and it is my goal as a clinician to help my clients see that their worthiness has no prerequisite and isn’t something to be earned.

In today’s fast-paced world of high demands and overstimulation, people need a peaceful place to relax and refocus. They need to be heard without judgement or interruption. Children need a caring adult to be present with them in the moment, someone to provide them with undivided attention. Teenagers need understanding. Couples need unbiased perspective. Every person's needs matter.

This is not the life you pictured, is it? You know things need to change but have no idea where to start. Being a human in this fast-paced society is quite difficult and often times heartbreaking. I strive to place the therapeutic relationship as my primary focus, because until someone feels authentically accepted, change is not going to be possible.

I am a doctoral student at the University of Kentucky in the Department of Education and the Center for Research on Counseling Education. My research focuses on intellectual and developmental disabilities, with a specific focus on understudied populations.
