Feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer seem to work? Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, a major life transition, chronic health concerns, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, you don't have to go through it alone.

For more than 20 years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside children, adolescents, and adults through some of life's most difficult seasons. My mission is simple: to restore hope, foster healing, and support meaningful personal growth. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered as we work toward the life you want to live.

As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I recognize that taking the first step toward seeking therapy can be difficult, which is why I want to help clients feel comfortable discussing some of life's most challenging topics. As I near the end of my education in Counseling Psychology, I have honed my experience in trauma-informed care. I have experience in working with individuals across the lifespan, but have focused my recent work with adults aged 18+ with extensive trauma and anxiety.

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.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Lexington, KY

Finding postpartum therapists in Lexington starts with looking for someone whose training matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you review therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or postpartum counseling. A PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.

Lexington offers local therapy options, and virtual care can make the search more flexible for new parents managing changing schedules, infant care, and physical recovery. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near home, work, or a child care route, or virtual appointments that fit more easily into your day. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, therapy approach, and whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they describe their style, postpartum experience, and what sessions may look like.

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 estimate before you book. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

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