Acceptance and Commitment Therapy therapists in Buckner, Kentucky KY
Melissa Pickett, LPCC
Licensed Professional Counselor
I like to take a direct, open minded and humorous approach to therapy. There are times that don't allow for much humor and that's okay too...I will meet you where you are at!
Along the way, I like to come up with goals and ideas together, using a creative and collaborative approach.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Just being a human is challenging. A therapeutic relationship is one that creates a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to those experiences differently, and empowers you to make choices about how you want to be. My work is to support you, build awareness and understanding, and ultimately to help guide you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it.

I'm a deeply caring, compassionate, and personable licensed psychologist with experience treating anxiety, panic, depression, relationship problems, and stress. I also have specialized training in mindfulness-based therapies (e.g., Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and the mind-body connection. My clients range across the lifespan from college students/young professionals to older adults. I'm committed to with you to create a customized plan in the context of a warm and nurturing atmosphere.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I specialize in working with clients from the ages of 14 to adulthood, who are inquisitive, self-aware, and deeply motivated to understand themselves better, improve their relationships, move into a place of self-respect/love, and develop adaptive ways of coping, communicating, and problem-solving. I have worked for many years with children, teens, adults, and families dealing with trauma and change and searching for authenticity, often in a world that values the superficial. Therapy is a process of seeking meaning, managing change, letting go of what no longer makes sense for who we are and what we want, healing, and growing.
I am most suited to help clients dealing with loss, prior childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, identity (in all its manifestations), divorce, self-esteem, grief, and emotional regulation. The goals are different for everyone, yet I believe that we all want to feel more balanced, more joyful, and more healthfully connected with others.
As a psychologist with 25 years of post-doctoral experience, I’ve been exposed to various modalities, settings, and clients dealing with differing issues, life changes, and developmental expectations. I’ve also found that my professional practice has evolved as I’ve matured, raised children, and survived losses and challenges. We are in this together.

Dr. Megan Kloep
Psychologist, Ph.D, Clinical Psychologist
I have been a clinical psychologist for my entire professional career. I began seeing patients beginning in 2010, and have continued to do so with dedication and passion ever since. I was drawn to this profession because I desire to help others. I chose to pursue my doctorate because I wanted to research and be trained in the most effective ways to accomplish this. Being trained in a number of evidence-based interventions, I work to utilize the approach that is the right fit for YOU as an individual; I aim to provide evidence-based skills and tools to help you to feel empowered to manage your symptoms in the context of a caring and supportive therapeutic space.
