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!

Hi! My name is Candice and I am a licensed professional clinical counselor; holding my independent license in both Kentucky and Ohio. I have been working in the mental health field for over 7 years. I have served as both an individual and group counselor for people struggling with addictions, anxiety, depression, self esteem issues, communication troubles, family and/or relationship conflict, and much more. I have extensive knowledge in substance abuse issues, having worked with that population for nearly 5 years. I obtained my bachelor's degree in anthropology and master's degree in clinical mental health counseling, both from Northern Kentucky University. I have always been interested in learning about people through their stories and decided to become a counselor in hopes of making a positive impact in people's lives. I understand that seeking counseling can be a big (and sometimes scary) step, therefore I embrace my clients with kindness and without judgement. I enjoy assisting clients in identifying their own strength and using these to achieve the life they desire (and deserve). I do this by utilizing mostly CBT, ACT, and MBSR strategies, tailoring these to my client's needs. I am grateful for the privilege to work along side of you as you take this step in your life!

Developing a meaningful connection with a personal therapist can lead to long-lasting benefits. 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.

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.

Hello. My name is Rebecca Morse and I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). I have a Masters of Education in Counseling. I have been practicing counseling for 11 years. I enjoy working with people of all ages especially teens and young adults. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process. Therapeutic approaches I use are Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I would say that my counseling strengths are that I'm empathetic, caring, and genuine. I've been told that I'm a good listener and help others feel safe and heard. I'm dedicated and determined to help others. I'm non-judgmental and practice unconditional positive regard. With that being said, I'm also able to give perspective and set boundaries. I truly believe that if it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. If you would like to be challenged in a safe, caring, non-judgmental environment, then I'm the therapist for you. Thank you for your time and I hope that I get a chance to help you navigate & work through your concerns.
