If you've been putting off therapy — telling yourself you'll handle it on your own, or that it's not for you — you're exactly who I'm glad to work with. I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 22 years of experience, and I help adults get to the root of what's actually going on and do something about it. Whether it's anxiety, depression, anger that's costing you, the weight of past trauma, stress that won't let up, or questions about identity and who you are, I'll meet you head-on and help you build a real way forward.

I work with a lot of men and people from diverse backgrounds who want a therapist they can be straight with — someone direct, who respects your time and helps you see results, not just talk in circles. That's the work I'm built for.

I bring a comprehensive background in healthcare and social services, with experience spanning a wide range of specialties and care settings. My work has included oncology, dementia care and caregiver support, geriatric evaluation, and primary care coordination.

My experience extends to the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), where I’ve helped older adults maintain their independence and quality of life. I also have strong supervisory experience and a commitment to promoting collaborative, holistic approaches to well-being.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Bowling Green, KY

Searching for therapists in Bowling Green starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Bowling Green therapists, look for someone whose training, listed specialties, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can show whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In a smaller city like Bowling Green, local appointment options may be more limited, so virtual therapy can help expand your search across Kentucky. You may prefer an in-person office near Westside, East Main, or another part of town, or you may want virtual sessions that fit around work, school, or family schedules. Before booking, review details like availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their communication style and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Bowling Green can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists in Bowling Green, KY who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after your benefits are checked. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan before booking. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
