Katy Larson, LPCC, Lead Clinical Director: Lexington
Being a human in this world can be so difficult and confusing! I love to help people become a version of themselves they can feel good about. If we are not clear on what our personal values and goals are, we can end up feeling lost with no direction. My training helps me to help people gain insight into the ways their past experiences have shaped their present. The process of changing and doing things differently often involves working through difficult feelings such as grief, shame, and regret; no one should have to deal with these feelings alone. The better we understand ourselves, the more empowered we are to take control of our lives and become our most authentic selves. I am here to provide a safe space and to create the conditions necessary for healing and lasting change. My approach is eclectic; psychodynamic & person-centered informed by feminist & existential theories. I frequently work with autistic folks, LGBTQIA+ folks, trauma/dissociative disorders, and identity/existential issues.

Ray Lynn Lee, CSW: Lexington
Hello, my name is Ray Lynn. I am a mother, sister, daughter, girlfriend, member of the LGBTQ+ community, mother to a beautiful trans child. I have spent most of my professional decade-long career working with kids, families, bio parents, and social workers from the foster care system. I worked with children school aged and up, as well as a lot of work with transgendered youth aging out of the foster care system. Trauma is different for each person. With education, acceptance, and exploration we can all work towards healing and learning to love ourselves in the process. Therapy is important because healing is messy, and does not color in the lines. Join me in creating a new masterpiece, with you at the center, driving the change.

Rayne Welch, LCSW: Telehealth Only
My use of CBT techniques helps my clients to first become aware of harmful, maladaptive, or unwanted thoughts and behaviors. After that, we can explore where these thoughts and behaviors stem from, what triggers them, how to prepare for them, and ultimately how to redirect and counteract them. By shedding light and awareness on the problem(s), we are then able to take our power back and lead our thoughts in a direction and manner that is positive and fulfilling to our lives. I aim to create a safe space where my clients feel comfortable to share and discuss anything. I won’t flinch at even the most intense topics, and I will match your energy and meet you where you are.
