I have been a certified grief therapist since 2003, and I have companioned individuals & families as they journey through their landscape of loss, whether it is the death of a loved one, a debilitating injury, a divorce, a terminal illness or any other type of significant personal loss.
As an artist, I understand the life-long vitality of artistic growth, & the importance of creativity to one’s perception of the world. As a professional counselor, I treat issues unique to artists, performers and other creative individuals. I encourage my clients to work with the highs/lows of the creative process, integrate them, and channel them appropriately through their art. Let’s explore ways to balance intense periods of creative work with healthy self-care and self-compassion. See more on my website on ways I can support you on your artist’s journey.

My approach as a therapist is to first reduce any distress that is showing up in the present in order to provide a more immediate sense of relief before walking alongside you to the places of pain in the past. Once we are able to step into past pain, we can work together to rewrite any false narratives and process through your individual experiences in order to create lasting healing. I have experience working with teenagers as young as 15, to adults in their late 70s. My specialties include working with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, chronic health issues and I have experience working with those who have a TBI.

Over 10 years, I’ve refined my skills to specialize in complex trauma/PTSD, grief, and marriage/family issues.
Are you tired of feeling stuck and broken? Have you been through service-related stressful experiences, that you don’t talk about because others won’t understand and may look at you different? Amidst these circumstances, do you find yourself grappling with an internal battle of anger, being on-edge, nightmares, chronic pain, and feeling distant/detached from yourself and others? Maybe you’ve tried therapy, but it never went anywhere because no one seemed to get to the root of the problem. These are very common struggles for those who have experienced complex trauma, including service-related and line-of-duty stressful experiences.

I specialize in EMDR. I work primarily online with trauma, anxiety and grief. My clients are usually seeking EMDR for their therapeutic modality. It works so well that they begin to notice change within the first few sessions. Anxiety, fear, “monkey mind” etc. lessens and they get relief. They learn to use these skills for sleep problems, grief related issues and to calm themselves when angry or overwhelmed. They are seeking relief from invasive symptoms that make their lives harder and less joyful. Their hearts often “crack open”with love when they move from their heads to a more heart centered awareness.

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy at any point in time. We can experience both immense joy and deep grief and trauma. Sometimes the latter overwhelms our ability to see the joy in our life or makes us feel like we are not living as we were meant to. If you keep feeling stuck no matter what you've tried to do on your own or in other therapies, that normally means there is trauma or pain that has not been processed yet. Enter me, I'm not like a regular therapist; I'm a cool therapist (I'm actually not cool, but I think I can be fun even when therapy isn't always the most fun). I want to help you feel unstuck.

It would be an honor to assist you with gaining insight into life’s challenges, as well as overcoming feelings of low self-esteem, loss of security, and finding vitality and value in life.
“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.

Exhausted. Overwhelmed. Depleted. Do you feel like the world is slowly crushing in on you, as you attempt to process a recent loss, a life changing situation, or accumulating life transitions? Whether fresh or prolonged in time, it still feels raw and vulnerable, and it's hard to imagine a time without this. You feel isolated, and as if you can't relate to others around you. You crave normalcy during this time of chaos. You want to feel whole again. You want to feel understood and relatable to others. Most of all, you want the simplicity of life that you once had.
