Hi, and welcome to my profile. I'm Dr. Manda, a Licensed Pastoral Counselor in Kentucky, and the author of "Re-authoring Life Narratives After Trauma."

I specialize in Spirituality such as Inner Child Work, Shadow Work, Generational Trauma, and recovery of your Authentic Self.
Sometimes.. It is absolutely O K A Y to break down. To crumble. To cry out for help. No matter where you’re at in your healing journey — you deserve to know that you are not alone in this. And you’re doing much better than you can imagine. I promise. I’d be honored to connect with you and see if you find us to be a good fit. Honestly.. it doesn’t matter how many degrees I hold, nor what methods I use, or even how long I’ve been helping others do this. Because therapy success depends mostly on whether or not you and I can align as a team. So if we don’t click, none of the magic can unfold.

I work with individuals, couples and those who are de/reconstructing their religion/ spirituality, or experiencing distress, trauma or pleasure related challenges that are caused by harmful religious experiences.
All of us have a story - and we all tell stories. I believe that the stories we tell about ourselves and others hold a heavy hand in our quality of life and the way that we view the world around us. I am passionate about counseling because I yearn to create space where others feel safe to explore and discover their authentic self – to feel heard, seen, and known. Throughout our sessions, I will create space for every part of you and will help you to discover and re-write the stories that no longer serve you.

My style of counseling has a strong emphasis on spirituality.
Whether you want to feel better, sleep better, think and focus better, communicate better, have a better connection with people, it all comes down to living a better life. I help people to achieve any goal, whether it's using hypnosis to kick a bad habit, such as smoking or overeating; or changing negative beliefs, such as not being good enough; or tending to grief and loss by obtaining closure, insight or a deeper understanding of why something ended the way it did, or learning meditation and mindfulness to assist with reaching their full potential. I create a customized approach that suits each client's individual preferences.

The inherent spirituality of all is utilized and cultivated in this work.
Thinking and feeling in ways that allow you to engage your daily life, others, and your personal goals with energy, creativity, and effectiveness is the thrust of my approach and practice. Identifying patterns that restrict cognitive and behavioral functioning, preventing understanding and integration of personal and interpersonal dynamics is a key focus. Increasing self awareness and understanding through enhancing mindfulness, expanding thinking about self and others, and developing behavior patterns that mobilize personal strengths, assets, and motivation is the goal of the work.

Also, with my experience in recovery from alcoholism, I have seen how spirituality has helped others and myself, so conversations surrounding recovery/spiritual issues are welcome if desired, yet not required.
According to the Person-centered Approach, regardless of the presenting issue, the solution is to provide unconditional positive regard (nonjudgmental acceptance) communicated through empathic understanding to help a client shift from incongruence to congruence - moving away from feeling all over the place, broken, with rigid thought/emotional patterns, toward feeling all in one piece, whole, with flexible thought/emotional patterns. These therapist provided conditions promote the client's actualizing tendency, leading the client to discover his/her/their own solutions toward self-improvement and wellness.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
