Anxiety Issues
Irritability, excessive worry, racing thoughts, fatigue, and issues sleeping seem to follow you throughout life.
Overwhelming Stress
A little stress is good for you but you are finding yourself feeling forever behind, craving control over your day, and needing your calendar to stop giving you a panic attack.
Low Self-Esteem
You put on a brilliant smile and go through life achieving and excelling in whatever you put your mind to, but deep down you feel like a fraud and are terrified someone will find out how little you think of yourself.
Learn To Manage Your Life Without Sacrificing What You Want
You are tired of struggling with feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and stressed all of the time. Attempting to balance family, work, and your own self-care is too much and tends to end with you feeling worse about yourself and how you can’t get it together. Shame and guilt keep you stationary in where you are and if you had to admit that things were not where you wanted you might actually crumble…..
How I can Help
I specialize in working with professional women who struggle with anxiety, low self-esteem, and stress management issues. Often women come in to see me because they are noticing themselves forming bad habits to cope with anxiety and stress. I use a combination of talk therapy with solution focused skill building to help you feel more in control and balanced.
Anxiety Management
Finding ways to cope both effectively and without compromising your overall health can be tricky but not impossible. Symptom management begins with finding the areas of your life that anxiety is present. Then finding ways to eliminate or manage the symptoms depending on your lifestyle and preferences.
Work/Life Balance
If you are like most women you have more to-dos and less time in your day. We can work on finding margin in your days and helping you take back your hours that feel lost to chaos daily.
Self-Care Planning
Did you eye roll when you read self-care? I love spas and pedicures but that is not what I am talking about here. I am talking about actually nurturing yourself so you continue to grow as a human being. I am talking about finding ways to present your best self to those you love. Taking care of yourself IS taking care of your family, community, and career. We find a way to make it work for you.
Positive Coping Skill Building
Sometimes we find things in this world that are great at taking care of negative feelings (alcohol, food, sex, shopping…) but long-term can cause health or other negative issues. When you are ready to make different choices for yourself then we can find the skills and education you need to be successful.
Frequently Asked Questions
Feel free to message me if you have further questions about services
What are your office hours?
I am open by appointment only, but I schedule from 10 am-8 pm most days depending on your needs. I also offer teletherapy in earlier and later appointment slots to accommodate different work schedules.
Do I have to tell you everything in therapy?
You can share whatever you want in your own time. I have tissues, and you are free to express your emotions in whatever form you find natural and helpful. My job is not to judge but to help and guide.
Is our work confidential?
Yes, unless you tell me you are going to hurt yourself, you are going to hurt someone else, or someone is hurting you. There are also limits to confidentiality if you are using insurance benefits. I will go over this in the very beginning of the first session in greater detail before we talk about anything else.
dO YOUR ACCEPT INSURANCE
I gladly accept Anthem & Humana commercial insurance. I also accept self-pay and can give you an itemized invoice for possible reimbursement from your insurance plan if I do not accept it. I do not accept any form of medicaid or medicare.
Are you licensed?
Yes, I am licensed by the Kentucky Board of Social Work as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I am licensed by the Kentucky Board of Alcohol and Drug Counselors as a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC)
What age ranges do you work with most of the time?
I prefer to see over the age of 18, but have experience working with under 18.
What can I expect in the first session?
The first visit is a chance for you to explain and talk about everything that has brought you into my office. You may speak as little or as much as you feel comfortable. I ask a lot more questions than in a typical session so that I can try to help identify what is going on and how I can help. I also have some super comfy seating, coffee/tea/water, and an hour blocked out to hear everything you want to tell me about struggles, accomplishments, and dreams for the future.
