Hello! I am glad to meet you and look forward to being part of your personal journey. First, a little about me and who you will be meeting.

I am a native of Southeastern North Carolina and graduated from Campbell University in Buies Creek, NC with a Bachelors of Science in Psychology. I transplanted to Louisville, KY in 1991 and pursued my Masters in Social Work Degree at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. Between my early education, continued training and lived experiences, I am able to guide you to explore the mind, body, spirit connection.

I have experience working with all ages but most of my career has involved working with youth and their families.

I have a lot of experience addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, LGBTQIA issues and parent/child problems and behavior issues. I have a growing interest in the area of women's health issues.

I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, grief, identity concerns, and major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to keep carrying everything on their own.

My approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and grounded in practical tools. I aim to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and supported as we work toward greater calm, clarity, and stability. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and focused on helping you move forward in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Ashland, KY


Hi, I’m Caitlin. I live in the beautiful Appalachian mountains of eastern Kentucky with my family.

I have enjoyed being an independently licensed clinical social worker for several years and am honored you are checking out my profile!

It is always so impressive to me when people have the courage to reach out for help. Life can be overwhelming, confusing, or heavier than it should and you’re not alone. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, or identity-related challenges, and finding it hard to make sense of what you’re feeling or how to move forward. Many of the people I work with are used to pushing through and handling things on their own, but eventually feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, identity exploration, relationship stress, life transitions, grief and loss, ADHD, OCD, and women’s issues. Together, we’ll create space to slow things down, better understand your experiences, and begin building a clearer, more grounded path forward that feels aligned with who you are and what you need.

Charles Hester

Therapist

Virtual • Kentucky


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.
