Leah Pavela-Mullins
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

It may not feel like it yet, but even through taking these steps, you are making progress! Steady progress is what I work with individuals to achieve through several treatment methods. The approaches that we use may be different for each person, but my hope for each client is that they reach three things: a sense of understanding, a route to self-acceptance/inner peace, and productivity toward reaching their deepest desires. I am a licensed mental health therapist in Kentucky and Indiana. I was born and raised in a city-setting (Louisville, KY), but spent time learning and working in a rural community as a graduate of Western Kentucky University. My counseling style is nurturing but practical. My hope is that with the end of each session, you will feel understood and motivated, and will have a plan of action to work toward your goals. Some of my favorite treatment modalities include solution-focused, narrative, CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing. I have an open door to all races, religions, ideologies, and sexual-orientations. My specialties include substance abuse treatment, anxiety, stress, anger management, relationship issues, race/discrimination-related issues, life changes, and parenting issues. When I am not working in the role of therapist, I covet time spent with my husband and four kiddos. If you are ready to move forward toward better understanding yourself, your issues, and your solutions, lets get started! Don't wait another day to start working toward the way of life that you deserve.

Shipra Singh
I have been practicing in the field of mental health since past 15 years. My personal experience with counseling was that there was a safe and non judgmental space, where someone was ethically and empathically devoted towards helping me find peace from chaos, find answers from the turmoil, and finally feel connected to my own self as a person. My primary modality in therapy sessions involves integrated approach, where in I incorporate Person Centered therapy modality to establish an empathetic, non-judgmental, genuinely caring and therapeutic environment where a person can feel safe, comfortable and supported to open up about their qualms and concerns. The other intervention modalities involve Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapies which facilitate the discussion and solution focused phase in the therapy session. My ideal client is anyone who is struggling with daily life stressors, trying to manage symptoms of clinical/non-clinical depression, and anxiety symptoms, sleep issues, PTSD symptoms, Grief, Self Esteem and Self Confidence issues, Generational Trauma challenges, adjustment issues, struggling in academics, career and relationships. Parenting issues. I also specialize in women mental health, and in supporting Perinatal/PostPartum phase women. Overall my goal is to provide a safe space of therapy which provides support not just for the severe mental health, lifestyle and daily life issues and concerns, but also acts as a space for self care !

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
