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.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with adolescents and adults as they navigate the challenges life brings. I have experience supporting clients with trauma, depression, anxiety, and a range of other mental health concerns, and I have a particular heart for working with women and families.

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human connection. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door, and you don’t have to worry about being judged. I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where you can be yourself, feel heard, and know that you’re not facing things alone.

Welcome, and thank you for reaching out.

Starting counseling is an important step, and I’m glad you’re here. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

I bring over 25 years of experience working with individuals and families. I am currently a university professor and have been in higher education for the past 16 years. Prior to that, I spent 10 years investigating child maltreatment, which gave me extensive experience supporting individuals and families through difficult and often overwhelming life circumstances.

"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.

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.
