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!

Mental Wellness Specialties: Stress, AnxietyRelationship issuesTrauma and abuseBipolar disorderDepression

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who is passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges and build meaningful, lasting change. I have experience working with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, emotional dysregulation, self-esteem struggles, relationship difficulties, grief, life transitions, and personality-related challenges. I believe that many of the struggles people experience are not signs of weakness or personal failure. Often, they are the result of a nervous system that has been under stress for far too long. When we spend extended periods in survival mode, it can become difficult to feel calm, connected, confident, or hopeful. My approach focuses on helping clients understand these patterns, regulate their nervous systems, develop effective coping strategies, and create a life that feels more manageable and fulfilling. My style is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a space where you can speak openly about your experiences, feel genuinely heard, and explore challenges without fear of criticism or shame. At the same time, I believe therapy should be more than simply talking about problems. My goal is to help you gain practical tools and insights that can be applied to your daily life. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and trauma-informed interventions. Together, we will identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, challenge unhelpful beliefs, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop healthier ways of responding to life's stressors. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing complex mental health concerns, crisis situations, trauma histories, chronic stress, and significant life challenges. These experiences have reinforced my belief that people are often far more resilient and capable than they realize. Even when circumstances feel overwhelming, meaningful growth and healing are possible. Clients often describe me as down-to-earth, easy to talk to, compassionate, and direct when needed. I believe in meeting people where they are while also gently encouraging them toward growth. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to help you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and build the skills and confidence needed to move forward. Seeking support takes courage, and reaching out for help is often the hardest step. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply feel stuck and unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward greater healing, balance, and well-being.

Find a therapist near you in Jeffersonville, Kentucky

Finding a therapist near you in Jeffersonville, Kentucky starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Kentucky is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Kentucky, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Kentucky, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Kentucky

Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In Kentucky, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
