I have been practicing in the field of therapy since receiving my graduate degree from Indiana University in 2012 and have worked with a wide variety of people and presenting problems. I also am currently back in school to obtain my doctorate in psychology and am getting the opportunity to learn new skills and work with an even larger variety of people. I have a passion for working with others and helping others find their way through issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, adjustment difficulties, and more. I believe the therapeutic relationship plays a strong role in the success of therapy and thus work hard to ensure that my clients feel comfortable and know it is a safe space in which to disclose and work on whatever problems they may have. I prefer the work of therapy to be collaborative. I do not use one particular therapy technique or theory when working with clients but, rather, prefer to meet clients where they are and use whatever tools best meet your needs. For many, I know taking the step to reach out to a therapist is a difficult one, and I applaud you for taking this step towards a better you! I strongly believe in the process of therapy and am ready to start helping you make progress towards the change you want in your life. I look forward to meeting you!

While this may prove difficult for some, therapist Ian Aiuto helps clients identify ways to overcome the factors that often prevent them from leading the life they ultimately desire. If you don't have a good relationship with your counselor, you won't make progress you are hoping to achieve. I want to provide you with some information about me to help you decide if my experience and style is the right match for you Barriers may include: Anxiety Depression Grief or loss Relationship and boundary issues Substance Use Disorder Sex Addiction "Most people will encounter anxiety and depression at some point in their life, but many will not seek help," Ian says. "It takes great strength to seek help. I want clients to recognize that there is assistance available to them." Therapy can help conquer feelings of: Shame Embarrassment Helplessness Hopelessness Ian will assist you: Discover solutions to your difficulties Engage in beneficial behaviors and thought patterns Remain neutral Help with accountability Ian's work as an adult medical social worker has given him useful insight and experience in helping people overcome grief, manage mental health issues, and find helpful resources in your area.

ABOUT ME My goal as a therapist is to help people find healing & joy in their lives so that they can live as they were created to & reach out beyond themselves. I have been a therapist for 7 years and worked with people of all ages (children, teens, families, parents, adults, couples) using a variety of therapy modalities including: cognitive, Christian, art, and play therapies. I tend to use a strength-based approach to therapy, which means I go where my clients need/want to go and I encourage the strengths I see in them while also promoting growth in other areas. I have experience in helping people develop healthier coping skills for stress, anxiety, anger, grief & depression, as well as improve relationships with their children, spouses and extended families. Some of my favorite things to do are to help clients see the good in their lives, then dream of the future and develop practical steps towards achieving those dreams. It is very fulfilling to see people make progress in areas they desire to see change, and to recognize their own strengths! A few stats: 1993--graduated from Bell County High School in KY 1998- completed my BS in Child and Family Studies from EKU, Richmond, KY 2015--earned my MA in Licensed Professional Clinical Counseling from Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA 2017--obtained a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in the state of KY 2019–became a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in KY I continue to hone my clinical skills with ongoing education.

22 years offering treatment
Hello! My name is Sharon Clark and I have 20+ years as a therapist. Therapy is a second career for me, so I have the benefit of offering some helpful information about navigating the "real world," and hopefully, you'll learn my experience is not straight out of the textbooks! Over the past years, I have worked with a very diverse population that struggle with unique perspectives on therapy and how it works. I have also worked as a substance abuse counselor if that is area you want to get help with. I can interact with you in whatever manner you choose, but video conferencing is my personal preference as it gives you the opportunity to get to know me and vice versa. I can be flexible to help accommodate your work schedule, school, doctor's appointments etc.

18 years offering treatment
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.
