Shaped by own life experiences, I became a social worker to help people navigate the uncertainties of life. We have all gone through transitions in life from career changes to family changes. It can be really hard to do that alone. After earning my degree in social work, I dedicated my career to roles helping adults, youth, and family systems. I understand how difficult it can be to go through a separation/divorce, family changes, job changes, growing into teen years and added stress - especially while also trying to manage the day to day life. Ive been there myself! My mission is to foster hope, stability, a listening ear, and skills you can walk away with.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Louisville

Finding ADHD therapists in Louisville starts with deciding what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy for ADHD may focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, organization, or support with procrastination and focus. Medication management is separate and is handled by a psychiatrist or other qualified prescriber. Some people look for therapy, some look for medication management, and some use both. If you are searching for adult ADHD support, pediatric ADHD support, ADHD testing in Louisville, KY, or care for related concerns like anxiety or depression, review each therapist’s listed specialties and training before booking.

Louisville offers a mix of local offices and virtual appointments, so the right fit may depend on your schedule, location, and preferred format. In-person therapy may work well if you want an office near home, work, or school, while virtual sessions can expand your options across Kentucky. ADHD often appears alongside anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, or stress, so it helps to look for a therapist with experience across the concerns you want to address. Read therapist bios for details on approach, session style, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Louisville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, compare appointment options, review profiles, and confirm estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can browse therapists, choose a fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.

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