Theresa Adamchik
Hi, My name is Theresa Adamchik and I'm here to be real with you. I have personally dealt with a lot of changes in my life and becoming a therapist and going through my own therapy has helped me grow immensely as a person. I want you to know what I know so you can have the life you want. I believe with all my heart that you will not regret the time you spend working on yourself. But warning, you will change! You do have the power to change within yourself but it's going to take hard work and dedication. You are at a threshold in your life and I'm here to lead you through it. I have done the work and dealt with heart break, overcome addictions, stood up in the face of trauma, and walked through the valley of darkness to the other side with more power and authenticity then ever before. Now, I am offering my hand to you to help you do the same. One on one we will do this together. Being research based and ethically sound is important to me. I received my Masters of Education with a concentration in Art Therapy and Counseling from University of Louisville in 2006, and a Bachelors of Fine Arts from University of Louisville in 2002. I have obtained my License in Expressive Art Therapy and Clinical Counseling. I obtained the necessary education to become a Board approved LPAT and LPCA supervisor. Additionally, I am also currently serving a 3 year term on the Kentucky Board of Licensed Art Therapists! In the past 15 years, I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including cognitive and behavioral challenges, grief/loss, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, ASD, PTSD, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced childhood trauma and abuse. I have stayed up to date on the latest trainings in the field, including Mindfulness, Anxiety, Trauma, and Neuropsychology. I use a variety of expressive and creative media as well as traditional counseling techniques in therapy. I am currently paneled with all the major insurance companies and have received other certifications in Reiki, Sound Healing and Expressive Therapies. When I'm not working, I love making art and being creative. I do a lot of hiking, gardening and spend time in nature. If what I am saying is resonating with you, then please feel free to contact me for more information, I look forward to working with you!
