Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Bowling Green, KY

"BeYou To The Fullest" is the principle I live by, and it's what I want for every person I work with. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from the University of Kentucky. I help adolescents and adults across Kentucky heal from trauma, manage anxiety and depression, and build lives that feel like their own.

Much of my work focuses on trauma and PTSD, anxiety and panic, stress, and substance use. I also support clients with relationships, family dynamics, identity, women's issues, and the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy and postpartum. I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) clients. With me, you won't have to explain or defend who you are before we can get to the real work.

I see therapy as whole-person care for mind, body, and spirit. Together we'll build coping skills that actually work, strengthen the way you communicate, and make changes that last. I offer sessions in person or through secure telehealth, on weekdays and at some evening and weekend times, so therapy fits into your life instead of the other way around.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Kentucky, I bring both professional expertise and deep personal understanding to my practice, specializing in trauma and complex mental health challenges. Having navigated my own lived experiences with these struggles, I truly believe that healing is achievable for everyone and that every individual deserves a life filled with health, peace, and happiness. My approach centers on compassionate, empathetic, and evidence-based care, creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can process your past, rebuild your strength, and discover a path forward that feels meaningful to you.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in working with women "across the spectrum of motherhood." I work with women experiencing infertility, pregnancy, postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, heavy mental loads, mom guilt, and empty nests. I have advanced training in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and use evidence based approaches in my work.

Hi, I'm Amanda (she/her/hers) I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky, Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana, an Integrative Mental Health Practitioner, and Trained in EMDR. In 2018 I graduated with a Master's of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Eastern Kentucky University.

I have worked with children, adolescents, and families in a variety of settings including: in-home, in-school programs, community mental health, psychiatric inpatient care, group private practice, and therapeutic foster care.

I offer individual and family therapy. I work with clients ages 5 to 65. Tele-health options are available for clients ages 16 +.

A few things about me outside of therapy: I have three children, so I understand that life can be beautifully chaotic. I’m a real person, not a therapist robot. I’ll bring authenticity into our work together.

I work with adolescents and adults across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, grief, and major life transitions. Most importantly, you don’t have to impress me. You don’t have to have the perfect answers or know exactly what you want to say. Therapy can be a place to better understand what you’re experiencing, recognize patterns that may be getting in your way, and develop healthier ways to move forward. Come as you are, and we’ll navigate the hard stuff together.

I've always loved helping people live more fulfilling and joyful lives. As humans, we do not exist in a vacuum, so many things take a toll on our daily lives and through our work together, we can figure out what works and what doesn't.

Hi, I’m Dawn Jones-Wilson, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 15 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, substance use concerns, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, supportive, direct, and down-to-earth—I believe therapy should feel like a safe place where you can be yourself.

Navigating life alone can be tough, Are you searching for a therapist who still believes in the miracle working power of Jesus? Is the weight of life too much to handle on your own? Are you an adult who struggles with anxiety, depression or trauma? Lets work together to help you overcome these struggles!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with over 7 years of experience helping people navigate life when it feels messy, overwhelming, or just plain stuck. I earned my Master’s in Social Work and have spent my career walking alongside individuals as they find hope, healing, and a way forward through some of life’s toughest seasons.

I work with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, sleep struggles, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I also have a strong background in supporting people in early recovery from substance use helping them build coping skills, stay grounded, and create real, sustainable change (not just quick fixes).

Outside of session, I practice what I preach: I focus on my own growth, stay active, and try to keep life in perspective which means I get the ups and downs that come with being human. I know starting therapy can feel intimidating, and I genuinely respect the courage it takes to show up. If you’re ready to do the work, I’m here to walk with you, challenge you when needed, and cheer you on as you build the life you deserve.

Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating — especially if you’re afraid of being judged, misunderstood, or unsure whether therapy will actually help. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or like you’re barely holding things together on the outside, you’re not alone.

My approach is warm, direct, practical, and collaborative. I help clients not only process emotions, but also understand why certain patterns keep happening and how to create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we focus on building emotional awareness, healthier coping skills, nervous system regulation, and stronger relationships.

Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, attachment wounds, self-esteem issues, or difficulty managing intense emotions. I work to create a space where clients feel safe, supported, understood, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

If any of this resonates with you, I’d be honored to support you in your healing process.
