Brandon Taylor
I have been a Licensed therapist for almost 9 years; I received my M.Ed in Counseling and Human Development in 2017. I feel that Therapy is about the individual participating within it. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a strong rapport in the counseling setting so the client can utilize therapy as a tool to better themselves. I want to work alongside my clients to help them help themselves.

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.

Chatia Warrick
Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Kentucky with over 7 years of experience providing counseling services to individuals navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, and complex health-related concerns. Prior to licensure, I completed two years of clinical internship experience, and I have been supporting individuals through life transitions in various professional and supportive roles for nearly 13 years. I have spent much of my career working with adults who have experienced acquired or traumatic brain injuries, including seven years providing counseling services in this area. This work has shaped my understanding of grief, identity changes, emotional regulation, and rebuilding confidence after significant life events. I also have experience in community mental health, where I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds. I am currently a doctoral student in Counselor Education and Supervision and am completing my dissertation, which focuses on Perinatal Mental Health in people of color and the importance of culturally responsive care. My counseling style is laid-back, warm, and inviting. I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable being open, asking questions, and moving at a pace that feels right for you. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overly clinical; I believe it works best when it feels collaborative, supportive, and grounded in real life. I offer therapy through live chat, a structured, real-time, text-based format that is available to both adolescents and adults. Many clients find that writing helps reduce anxiety, supports emotional regulation, and allows space for thoughtful reflection before responding. For teens, live chat can make therapy feel more approachable, and for adults, it can be a helpful option for those who are not comfortable being on camera or who prefer not to use video sessions. Offering this format is part of my commitment to reducing barriers to therapy and making mental health support more accessible. Limited Sunday live chat appointments may be available upon request. Please message to inquire about Sunday availability.” For clients who prefer other formats, video and phone sessions are also available, allowing us to choose the modality that best supports comfort, engagement, and therapeutic progress. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, adjusting to changes, or looking for ongoing support, I’m here to meet you where you are and walk alongside you.

Rachael Sholar
Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a licensed therapist in Kentucky, and I work with people who are navigating things like anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction—but more than anything, I work with people, not just diagnoses. I know it can take a lot of courage to even start this process, and I don’t take that lightly. If we work together, you can expect me to show up as a real person. I’ll probably make facial expressions, laugh with you when it’s appropriate, and sit with you in the hard moments too. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to grow. I take a compassionate, evidence-based approach, and I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you better understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we’ll work on identifying patterns that aren’t serving you and building practical, realistic tools you can actually use in your daily life. I’m also a Christian, and I’m absolutely open to incorporating a faith-based approach into our work if that’s something you’re looking for. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear plan before starting. We’ll figure it out together, one step at a time, at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I’m really looking forward to getting to know you.
