In life the most important aspect is the relationship we have with ourselves and others. As a mental health therapist I believe healing happens through connection, understanding, and feeling truly heard. I help individuals navigate the effects of trauma, strengthen relationships, and develop the tools needed to create lasting emotional well being in a warm, nonjudgmental environment.

Hi, I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky, working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and substance use. I know reaching out for therapy takes real courage, and my goal is to make our first conversation feel grounded and easy. When I'm not in session I'm usually writing, hiking, or keeping up with my grandkids — I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human conversation, not a script. If you're looking for a warm, non-judgmental space to work through what's weighing on you.

Therapist

Hello, and welcome! My name is Angela Mullins, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) serving clients throughout Kentucky. I have over five years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life's challenges with compassion, evidence-based care, and a trauma-informed approach.

While my background is rooted in marriage and family therapy, I also specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and I have additional training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based therapeutic approaches. My goal is to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, helping them heal from the past while building the skills needed to move forward with confidence.

I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I believe therapy should be collaborative, and I work alongside each client to identify meaningful goals and develop practical tools for lasting change.

For clients who desire it, I am also comfortable integrating Christian faith into the counseling process. I hold a Bachelor of Arts from John Hobson Bible Training Center and enjoy supporting individuals who wish to incorporate their faith as part of their healing journey, while always respecting each client's personal beliefs and preferences.

Whether you're struggling with trauma, relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, grief, or simply feeling stuck, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing and growth.

Angela Young

Therapist

Virtual • Kentucky


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.

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 Therapist in Lexington

Searching for therapists in Lexington starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, or stress. As you compare options, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist who mentions approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care may be a closer match if those approaches fit your goals.

Lexington has a strong local therapy community, with options near downtown, the University of Kentucky area, Hamburg, and surrounding Fayette County neighborhoods. Some people prefer an office close to work, school, or home, while others choose virtual therapy for more scheduling flexibility. When narrowing your search, review appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and approach before you book.

Therapy in Lexington can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, verify your insurance, and see an estimated session cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
