Hello, I'm Timara. I have been a person in long-term recovery since 2010, and I have found my purpose in providing a safe space for others. My approach to therapy is rooted in radical acceptance and non-judgment, offering LGBTQ+ friendly and Neurodivergent-affirming care. Some of my passions are working with people with Autism Spectrum disorder, religion/cult trauma and ADHD. I am Poly and kink friendly and have experience with ENM.Using a gentle yet direct approach, I work collaboratively with you to empower yourself to make positive changes in your life.

Whether you're struggling with relationships, communication issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation issues, or trouble managing stress, I'm here to help. Together, we will identify barriers and find the tools you need to successfully progress towards living a more rewarding life.

I have spent the last 8 years specializing in substance use disorders and mental health, working in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I graduated from the University of Louisville with my Master of Science in Social Work (MSSW) in 2020. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kentucky and Indiana, and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Kentucky.

If you're ready to take the next step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, I would be honored to support you on your journey. Let's work together to create the positive changes you seek.

Kathryn Fischer

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 3.9 mi away • Louisville, KY


I believe therapy should be real, not stiff. Therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and human. My style is relaxed, warm, direct, and funny when it helps. I work with people navigating grief, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, chronic health diagnosis, complex family dynamics, marital challenges and complicated expectations placed on women. We will sort though what's heavy, challenge the narratives that aren't' serving you and help realize a life that feels more like your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and working towards growth.

Your therapy is not about me, but in today's climate most people want to know the values of their therapist. I bring a commitment to social justice and equality into my work. This perspective helps me create a space where clients feel seen, respected, and understood within the full context of their lives.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Hi, I’m Christine. I became a nurse practitioner because I wanted to offer more than rushed, one-time care. After years in urgent care, I saw how often mental health was treated as an afterthought, and I knew people deserved better.

Today, I provide psychiatric medication management for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other conditions that are disrupting daily life. My goal is not just to prescribe medication, but to help you feel stable and supported over time.

I take time to understand how you are really doing, from your sleep and stress levels to how work and daily life are being affected. We keep adjusting the plan until it is working for you.

As someone who came to this country from Africa, I understand what it can feel like to navigate systems that were not built with you in mind. That experience shapes how I practice. I believe psychiatric care should be honest, respectful, and tailored to the individual.

Angela Young

Therapist

Virtual • Kentucky


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with over 7 years of experience helping people navigate life when it feels messy, overwhelming, or just plain stuck. I earned my Master’s in Social Work and have spent my career walking alongside individuals as they find hope, healing, and a way forward through some of life’s toughest seasons.

I work with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, sleep struggles, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I also have a strong background in supporting people in early recovery from substance use helping them build coping skills, stay grounded, and create real, sustainable change (not just quick fixes).

Outside of session, I practice what I preach: I focus on my own growth, stay active, and try to keep life in perspective which means I get the ups and downs that come with being human. I know starting therapy can feel intimidating, and I genuinely respect the courage it takes to show up. If you’re ready to do the work, I’m here to walk with you, challenge you when needed, and cheer you on as you build the life you deserve.

Hi, I’m Scotty! It is my goal to join with you and guide both of us in growth through the power of the therapeutic relationship. Although I describe my therapeutic approach as eclectic, I lean heavily toward Relational-Cultural Theory. I believe that people grow in relationships that exhibit mutual empathy and empowerment. I have particular interest in the effects of trauma on an individual’s mental and physical health and methods in which those effects can be mitigated.

Solution-Focused Therapy is an integral part of my practice as well. SFT is a solution-focused, future-oriented form of therapy that focuses on your strengths as a way to reach your goals. In this paradigm, you, the client, are viewed as the expert on your life.

I have worked in the field of mental health for nearly 30 years. My clients have come from all age groups, educational levels, and socioeconomic statuses. I have worked with clients in community mental health, prison, long-term care, and hospice. I hold a Masters of Arts in Psychology from Marshall University and a Masters in Social Work from the University of New England.

In my free time, I enjoy reading post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction. When I’m not reading, I spend hours enjoying nature in the Appalachian Mountains along with my Great Pyrenees, Ghost.

Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.
