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!

Greetings! I am James K. Slaton and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2015. I graduated from Western Kentucky University and my previous experience in mental health includes working at a State Mental Hospital, Community Mental Health Crisis Unit, and Child Protective Services as an ongoing worker and investigator. I started providing mental health counseling/therapy in 2012 working with children and their families. My experience includes implementing management strategies for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship issues, and effects of trauma to name a few. My overall approach is based in Reality Therapy. I am trained in several modalities and utilize them interchangeably to create an environment where my patients are/or become an expert on themselves and can teach me how to help them. I bring my own expertise to the session shaped and formed through life experiences, the search and acquisition of knowledge, and taking an empathetic approach to all situations. Passing judgment, discriminating, following social norms, or utilizing sympathy as a tool is not a part of treatment I deliver. My approach is straightforward and solution focused. If you feel that no one ‘gets’ you or that no one has been there, you may be correct but I believe that can change so give me a try! I make no promises, but I also tell no lies; if you possess the stamina we will win the race! If stamina is lacking, we will condition and win the race anyway!

My name is Adriana Hampton. I am an African American female, licensed in the state of Kentucky as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor & a Licensed Clinical Alcohol & Drug Counselor. I graduated with a Bachelor of Psychology from the University of Kentucky & a Master of Education in Counseling & Human Development from Lindsey Wilson College. Since beginning my professional career, in 2007, I have taken advantage of opportunities that have equipped me with skills proven to be beneficial when working within a diverse population in both individual & group settings. I have almost 20 years of professional experience working with individuals, specifically adults, seeking support as they are faced with life challenges related to addiction & mental health. Throughout my professional career, I have utilized a variety of therapeutic approaches, pending what challenges are presented at the time of service. I have found Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to be most impactful when addressing substance abuse, anxiety, depression, feeling overwhelmed etc.; as it assists individuals with understanding the relationships between their thoughts, their feelings, and their behaviors. I hope you will allow me the opportunity to assist you with challenging those thinking patterns that continuously present you with undesirable outcomes. Your willingness & my clinical skill, together, can provide you with opportunities to making positive lifestyle changes & improving your quality of life.
