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.
