Craig "Matt" Ladwig, LPCC
About me
As a licensed counselor in Kentucky, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, life transitions, and personal growth. I'm particularly passionate about working with young adults and men who are seeking meaningful support through difficult experiences.
My therapeutic practice focuses on understanding individual struggles with isolation, purpose, social anxiety, and personal identity. I offer a compassionate, faith-friendly approach that respects each client's unique journey. Drawing from evidence-based techniques, I help clients develop resilient coping strategies, improve self-esteem, and work through challenging emotional patterns.
I believe in creating a supportive environment where individualsuu can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop stronger, more authentic connections with themselves and others. My goal is to walk alongside you as you discover inner strength and create positive, sustainable life changes.
