I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in the state of Kentucky with over 5 years experience at the master level and 10+ years experience working in mental health settings. I have worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma, separation, family mediation and concerns, anxiety, depression, parenting problems, OCD, ADHD, relationship problems and more.
My therapy style is warm but realistic and very person centered. I believe in helping the individual long term and helping find solutions that encourage this. I believe in treating every individual with respect and compassion.
My approach combines cognitive behavioral, solution focused and person centered approaches that are tailored to your specific treatment to meet your specific and unique needs.
If you are now taking that first step or even trying things again, I am glad you are taking the steps towards bettering not only yourself, but your life as a whole, as this take courage and commitment.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Nakita Castle. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Very professional, yet warm and "homely" approach to therapy. Utilises current methodology and understanding of psychological practices. She's very perceptive and able to understand core issues to gently guide you to necessary emotional/intellectual conclusions. Perfect therapist for dealing with trauma due to having a serious, yet compassionate approach to your issues with a gentle, light and humorous conversation around general topics. Her deep yet bubbly personality has made a huge difference to how I view talk therapy.

Nakita always knows what to say to me to make me feel better about a situation or myself she’s great. She also is really funny which helps when I’m deadly serious about things we laugh which makes me feel ten times better. She’s warm, confident in her abilities and a great communicator everything you need for a good therapist
