I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in the states of Kentucky.. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and children both in individual and group settings. I also have experience working with couples and families. Some clinical issues I have the most experience in include addiction, anger management, domestic violence, depression, anxiety, stress management, and trauma. A main focus in my treatment is establishing a therapeutic relationship with the person first and foremost as I believe having a good connection helps facilitate effective counseling and provides the best outcomes. In therapy, I am supportive, compassionate, and am present with individuals both in times of struggle as well as times of achievement and progress. I make sure to meet each individual where they are at and actively listen to and respect where they would like to see themselves in the future with the help of therapy. Working collaboratively with individuals on their treatment goals is a priority throughout treatment and I encourage open communication regarding what therapeutic techniques and approaches work best for the person so as to ensure the best therapeutic experience. My counseling style combines strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused approaches to help individuals achieve their therapeutic goals. Identifying one's strengths and coping skills that can be used to help work through various issues is an important part of my therapy approach. I truly value each individual therapeutic relationship and fully empathize with the different emotions a client may experience throughout treatment. I believe that each individual has the ability to overcome struggles but that sometimes having additional support in the form of therapy can help one to better identify and recognize the coping skills and strengths they already possess. You have taken the first step in creating a healthier, happier you and I would be honored to help you in that journey!

Welcome! My name is Michael Cole (James) and I am a licensed mental health professional. I offer my services here as a part-time, private practice contractor. I hold multiple degrees including a Master's in Social Work and I am currently a doctoral candidate studying advanced clinical social work. I hold multiple licenses to practice as an independent mental health professional (LICSW/LCSW) in various states. My approach to services is eclectic in nature, which is to say that I shift my approach to meet your needs, whatever those may be. I do not believe in "cookie-cutter approaches" to this kind of work as each person is unique as are their needs and goals. I strive to be culturally informed and desire to provide competent support to all persons in need. You deserve a clinician that you can trust and who is focused on your specific needs. You deserve someone who will hold space for you, who will not cast judgement, and who will work with you to help you determine what the best path forward looks like. These things are what I strive to provide to every client I see. I am very excited to meet you and to get started on addressing the concerns/issues that brought you in to see me. Please, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. PLEASE NOTE: I do not offer "messaging sessions" and due to my limited availability I mandate that clients only book sessions that they can keep as no-shows, late cancels, and late appearances will result in my having you find another provider to work with who can accommodate such things. While there are some people who don't care for this approach, this policy is the best way that I have found to be equally fair to all clients. Thank you for reading up on me. I hope to connect with you soon.

Trauma often gets “stuck” in the brain and body, keeping old emotions and reactions alive. My approach combines EMDR therapy with trauma-informed techniques like Parts Work (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EMDR helps your brain safely reprocess memories, allowing them to feel like part of your past rather than a present threat. This is why therapy can actually help — it gives your brain the chance to do what it wasn’t able to do on its own. The sessions are paced to your comfort level. You remain in control throughout, and the process allows your brain and body to work with memories safely. I understand how challenging it can be when past experiences continue to affect your life or when therapy hasn’t felt helpful before. My goal is to provide a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you work with memories that have been difficult to process. It's time to reclaim your life, power and relationships back from what trauma stole from you. Reach out today to get started!
