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

Life can feel heavy. Whether you're navigating anxiety that never seems to quiet down, processing a loss, working through trauma, or simply feeling stuck in patterns you can't seem to break, therapy can be a place to breathe, reflect, and begin to heal. I'm Claire, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a warm, collaborative approach to therapy. I work with adults who are ready to do meaningful inner work — not because something is "wrong" with them, but because they deserve support, clarity, and a space that is entirely theirs. My work is rooted in compassion and curiosity. I believe healing happens in relationships, and I take the trust my clients place in me seriously. Together, we'll go at a pace that feels right for you — no rushing, no judgment, and no pressure to show up as anything other than yourself.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Lexington

Finding OCD therapists in Lexington starts with looking for the right training, not just a matching specialty label. OCD care often focuses on obsessions, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination concerns, and reassurance-seeking patterns. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people living with OCD, and therapists vary in their training with it. As you compare options, look for ERP treatment near me, OCD experience, or exposure and response prevention in therapist bios so you can identify someone whose listed approach matches your needs.

In a mid-sized city like Lexington, your options may include therapists with local offices, virtual appointments, or both. Virtual care can expand your search beyond the closest office while still helping you stay connected to care that fits your schedule. When reviewing therapists, look beyond whether they mention OCD. A therapist who lists OCD as a focus area may have different training than one who clearly describes ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or structured OCD therapy. Therapist bios can also show how sessions are structured, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients.

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 your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, see insurance information for your specific plan, and view real appointment availability. You can compare bios, see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
