I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over 10 years of experience in the counseling field. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults ages 14 and older, providing a warm, welcoming, and supportive environment where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.

My goal is not to tell you who you should be or what your life should look like. Instead, I want to help you better understand yourself, identify what you want for your life, work through the things that may be holding you back, and develop the tools and confidence needed to move forward.

I believe every person has strengths, even during times when those strengths may be difficult to see. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, healing from past experiences, struggling with your self-worth, or simply feeling ready for something to change, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. We can start exactly where you are and work from there.

Life changes. Sometimes we're ready for it, and sometimes we're not. Maybe you're heading to college, adjusting to a new stage of adulthood, navigating a midlife transition, or realizing the ways you've been coping aren't working anymore. I help adults 18+ work through anxiety, depression, life changes, and substance use concerns while building the confidence and tools to move forward. You don't have to have it all figured out before reaching out.

Therapy should feel like a safe place to slow down, be honest and make sense of you are experiencing without judgment.

You don't have to keep carrying the weight of what happened to you. Healing is possible.

Hi, I'm Rachel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in helping adults heal from trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and the lasting effects of difficult life experiences.

Many of my clients come to me feeling exhausted. They've spent years trying to push through painful memories, quiet their anxiety, or make sense of experiences that continue to affect their relationships, confidence, sleep, or ability to feel like themselves. Some have tried therapy before but still feel stuck. Others have never talked about what happened because it simply felt too overwhelming.

Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to face it alone.

As a therapist trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART®), I offer an evidence-based approach that can help reduce the emotional impact of traumatic memories—often in fewer sessions than traditional talk therapy. One of the things many clients appreciate most about ART® is that you don't have to describe every painful detail of your trauma to experience meaningful healing. Together, we'll work toward helping you feel less overwhelmed by the past so you can be more present in your life today.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where healing can happen at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Imagine waking up without constantly feeling on edge. Imagine memories no longer having the same emotional grip on you. Imagine feeling more like yourself again. That kind of change is possible, and it would be an honor to help you get there.

If you're ready to begin your healing journey, I'd love to walk alongside you.

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.

Therapist

Virtual • Kentucky


Hello, and welcome. My name is Bethaney Long, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience in the helping profession and over 7 years of clinical mental health experience. I work with children ages 4 and older, adolescents, adults, and families. While I primarily provide face-to-face therapy services, telehealth appointments are also available when appropriate.

I specialize in helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship challenges, family conflict, parenting concerns, stress management difficulties, and self-esteem issues. I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating life’s challenges and emotional hardships.

My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I believe therapy should be a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), EMDR-informed interventions, and strengths-based techniques tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.

I understand that reaching out for support can be difficult. My goal is to help clients build on their strengths, develop effective coping skills, increase resilience, and work toward lasting healing and personal growth. Whether you are seeking support for a specific concern or looking to improve your overall well-being, I am committed to meeting you where you are and helping you move toward the life you want to live.
