Anxiety is one of the leading reasons people seek therapy. Anxiety can keep people from being able to reach their best potential because they focus on what could go wrong instead of what could go right. Life experiences and circumstances inform anxiety experiences. It is so important to have healthy coping skills to deal with anxiety, so you are not overwhelmed. I would love to help you learn healthy coping skills to effectively get through struggles you may be going through. I work with adults in individual therapy seeking support for everyday challenges such as stress, life transitions, parenting, and personal growth, gaining self-esteem skills, gaining anger management skills, social anxiety management, and learning to have effective boundaries to name a few. My approach is solution-focused, which means we will work together to identify practical tools and strategies you can begin using right away. Whether you are adjusting to a new role, improving communication, or building healthier habits, I can help you learn skills and strategies to help you be successful. I am here to support and empower you in your therapy goals. For clients who value Christian faith as part of their journey, I also offer Biblical encouragement to help you in your spiritual journey getting through your situation. My goal is to create a supportive and focused space where you can build skills, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency call 911 or go to your nearest ER. Severe and/or frequently severe mental health needs are best served in an in person mental health therapeutic setting. Clients needing intense therapy, court ordered therapy, therapy dealing with legal related issues of any kind, or custody involved therapy are best served by local in person mental health providers and resources.

Molly Techau
Originally from Texas, I moved to Kentucky to pursue a Masters in Divinity. After the unexpected loss of my father, I began attending counseling for my own grief and relationships. Through my own healing process and many friendships and relationships, I became aware of the courage and bravery required to recognize and approach the trials in life. I quickly pivoted and relentlessly pursued my passion for counseling. My experiences and relationships with others cultivated my passion for being present with others throughout their own journeys, judgement free and wholeheartedly. As a professional counselor and therapist, I view my role as an opportunity to offer presence and hope to others as they embark on the journey of fearlessly discovering who they are created to be. I enjoy working with a large clientele from preteens, teens, young adults, and adults, ages 12+. My clients and I navigate through concerns related to communication, relationships, mood management, grief, disordered eating, along with many other topics. I have a largely collaborative approach with my clients while finding unique opportunities to challenge them toward their goals. Each session is tailored to my clients’ needs. I married my husband, Davis and together we share a life with our four very large dogs, Copper and Bruce, Tucker, and Otter Lee. Our boys keep us on our toes and we love taking them on weekend adventures. I enjoy an array of activities, including spending time with family and friends, running, leading Bible study, playing with our dogs, mentoring, writing, and reading. To my family, I have a bright-hearted and gentle presence. To my friends, I’m known repeatedly quoted for saying “These are the moments when life happens.” As much as I enjoy adventuring with others by running and exploring, it also brings me great peace to have moments of stillness while journaling and enjoying my coffee.
Jennifer Bishop
As a therapist, I am often asked, "What is your passion?" The answer is simple: my passion is YOU. My ideal client is those who feel stuck and overwhelmed by the weight of life and are burdened by negative core beliefs that make it hard to see their own worth. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, or feelings that they have to carry everything alone. Some may have experienced trauma, instability, or disruptions in relationships and family dynamics-and yet, they still long for healing, connection and peace. My ideal client is also someone who desires change but isn't quite sure where to start. I use client led therapy. You lead in your own journey, and I am just along to help guide you. I offer CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing and a spiritual perspective to help you in your healing when desired. Whether you are navigating personal identity, relational challenges, parenting struggles, or any other complex situation-I am here to help. Everyone can use a listening ear from time to time. I offer a gentle, non-judgmental approach in my therapy practice. I offer compassion and encouragement to my clients who often feel defeated. My role is to walk alongside you as you challenge long held beliefs, discover your strengths and learn tools that support lasting change. I would be honored to help you in your journey to healing. My approach is unique because I will not push you beyond your level of readiness. Therapy has to be client led. I will encourage you, but not push you too far beyond your comfort zone. Sessions with me are completely non-judgmental. I will be your biggest cheerleader in your journey.
