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.

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.

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, carrying grief that feels heavier than expected, struggling with ADHD, or simply trying to make sense of a difficult season in life. Whether you're an adult navigating life's challenges or a child learning how to express big emotions, therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and discover new ways forward.

"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.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

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

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Lexington

Finding couples therapists in Lexington starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy and marriage counseling can support concerns like communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so it can help to look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their profiles.

In Lexington, your options may include therapists with offices near downtown, the University of Kentucky area, or surrounding neighborhoods, as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments. Finding one therapist who fits both partners’ schedules can take planning, so consider appointment times, session format, and whether the therapist is accepting new clients. Some therapists offer a brief phone consultation, which can help both partners ask about the therapist’s approach to couples therapy before booking a first session. Reading profiles can also show how a therapist structures sessions and supports both partners in the room.

Couples 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 Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. Headway lets you search for therapists who offer couples therapy or marriage counseling in Lexington, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
