The people of Charlestown are pretty lucky. They live in a beautiful little town close to shopping in Clarksville, and enriching cultural attractions of Louisville right across the river. In just minutes with an easy drive across the bridge, the people of Charlestown can enjoy ballet, opera, or basketball to name just a few.

But not everyone in Charlestown is taking advantage of its great location. Some people are too deep in their struggle with personal hardships such as substance abuse, mental illness, toxic interpersonal relationships, loss, trauma, and everything in between to enjoy what this town has to offer. If this sounds like you, please reach out to a mental health professional today.

I am a therapist oriented toward relationship issues, problems with assertiveness, communication barriers, and existential concerns (grief and other life phase changes). I've recently become aware how acutely I represent a minority in the profession, a man's perspective in an industry that now runs 80% women. I am licensed in Kentucky and Indiana. I have worked with clients with a wide range of other concerns, but these days, my strengths go toward those dealing with adjustment-related obstacles in a stressful world, rather than people with histories of severe mood or anxiety problems. I want you to be the best of who you are now, and I prefer to leave the challenges of deep, meaningful personality change or the wounds of trauma to my colleagues. TO REITERATE, I DO NOT WORK WITH TRAUMA. IF YOU NEED THAT TYPE OF INTERVENTION, ONE OF MY MORE QUALIFIED COLLEAGUES HERE WILL SERVE YOU BETTER. My counseling style takes a social science approach with you, forming testable hypotheses and solution-focused goals. In that tradition, I combine cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and existential counseling. But I'm also a bit of a knowledge generalist and won't hesitate to bring in the lessons of history, literature, philosophy or even linguistics if you find any of those domains helpful. I like to think that as a real professional on the other side of a screen or keyboard, I'm a cut above "AI slop." In short, I deal in both dignity and hope, shaping my dialog and treatment plan to meet you where you are. I would be honored to work with you!

Are feelings of fear, unworthiness, guilt or sadness keeping you from reaching your full potential? Are the stories you tell yourself keeping you stuck in the same dysfunctional patterns again and again? Are the expectations of others in your life clashing with who you know to be your authentic self? There's a different way to be and a new life awaiting you. With someone to hold space for you, it is possible to grow in compassion for yourself. Are you ready to start challenging your inner critic so you can reach your full potential and lead the life you deserve? I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Kentucky and Indiana. My passion is helping women reclaim the parts of themselves that may have been lost as we try to balance it all. In my work, I focus on self care, mindfulness, and helping you reframe beliefs that keep us stuck in negative patterns. I am particularly interested in the intersection between trauma and ADHD, being diagnosed later in life with neurodivergence myself. When working with clients, I believe that healing is a collaborative effort that requires an honest and nonjudgmental approach. As your therapist, I assist you in clarifying your goals and honor your inherent power to heal. Rather than being drawn to one modality, I look at all individuals, the environment and situation and draw on a number of modalities. I believe the therapeutic alliance is the most important aspect to healing and encourage my clients to openly discuss their experience in therapy. I invite you to reach out to see if we're a good fit.
