I believe every person has their own unique story, and you deserve care that truly fits you. With a PhD in Social Work and years of experience across vocational rehabilitation, transitional housing, child advocacy, infectious disease, and heart disease and stroke prevention and care, I've had the honor of walking alongside people through some of life's most difficult moments. That wide range of experience taught me one thing above all else: people are resilient, and the right support makes all the difference.

My approach is warm, person-centered, and built around you — your goals, your values, and your pace.

Drew has a strong passion for meeting clients where they are and working towards their identified needs and goals. Drew graduated from the University of Kentucky with his Masters in Social Work in 2014. He provided mental health services for children and adolescents at risk of being removed from their homes or being returned by Child Protective Services for several years after graduating before moving on to more traditional psychotherapy. Drew has extensive knowledge and experience working with families, children, and individuals, particularly those who have experienced trauma. He uses treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, TF-CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and more. Drew has immediate openings for both telehealth and in person appointments.

Hi, I'm Michelle! I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over 10 years of experience helping children, adolescents, and families heal and grow. I'm a fluent bilingual English/Spanish speaker and a Nationally Certified Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, and I love creating a welcoming space for clients as young as three through young adulthood. I've worked in schools, homes, offices, and foster care, and I focus on meeting each family where they are, building trust, and working together toward the outcomes that matter most to you.

Starting therapy can be scary when you don't know what to expect or who you'll be talking with. In my experience, the typical therapy setting often lacks consistency and clear communication about what's ahead. I believe therapy should be collaborative, not led by one party. I usually begin sessions with a plan, but plans can change depending on what you bring. It's your boat; I'm just part of the crew helping you reach the destination you set.

Growing up is hard. Being a teenager or young adult is hard. Being "different" is hard. But it doesn't have to happen without guidance and encouragement. I strive to be the person I needed when I was younger by staying present and flexible with my clients.

Through metaphors, humor, and structure, I push young people to become the version of themselves they feel they can be. Neurodivergence is often treated solely as a disability, which can leave you surviving but not living. I encourage clients to use their differences and strengths to thrive. Direct communication and consistency between sessions are the norm with me, which helps reduce anxiety about therapy itself.

Sessions often focus on personal growth, independence, nonverbal cue awareness, communication, confidence, and social skills. Building and maintaining friendships can be confusing, complicated, and emotional, and a patient, helpful hand can make a huge difference. You don't have to stay lost, misunderstood, and confused by your emotions and the world. I often tell clients they "can do hard things." Often, going to therapy is the hard thing, and that's okay.

I earned a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Eastern Kentucky University and have since achieved LPCC-S licensure and the RPT credential. Since graduating, I've spent extensive time learning how Autism and ADHD affect individuals and how best to serve this population, and I've earned certification in AutPlay and Child-Centered Play Therapy. I'm currently expanding my knowledge of new information and therapy approaches to help neurodivergent individuals transition into independence where possible. Elizabeth specializes in Autism and ADHD Testing, Lean More.
