For much of its history, Prospect, Kentucky was home to farmers who grew their crops along the Ohio River. This river nourished the land and helped the crops grow. We need nourishment and support to live our best lives, too - especially when emotional struggles and/or mental health issues make us feel depleted, empty and alone.

You don’t have to struggle alone. A Prospect-area counselor can help you by providing you with support and guidance to overcome your current troubles. Match with a licensed, confidential mental health professional to get started today.

My name is Rick Gantt. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - Supervisor in the commonwealth of Kentucky. I have over 20 years of experience working as a mental health counselor and have a very diverse set of experiences through the years with preferences in bipolar and mood issues, grief and mourning, anger issues, couples counseling and past traumas. I also have considerable experience working with substance and dual diagnosis. I prefer an adolescent through adult and even geriatric clientele. I am experienced and do care about those that I work with and enjoy seeing my clients succeed. I am an eclectic therapist which basically means that I use what I see is most effective for the Client.  Much of what we will talk about will be Gestalt therapy which attempts to help you be empowered to learn to make your own decisions and help to find the sources of issues within your past.  CBT and behavioral therapies are always useful in helping to see that by changing these thoughts you can easily change behaviors that follow.  I also use some psychoanalytic to help to see the influence that development has had on current thoughts and emotions.  And finally, Client centered which helps in creating an environment for learning.
