Depression
Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals meet depression with understanding rather than isolation, relieve distress, and rebuild a more livable rhythm. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening above and beneath the surface and turn that clarity into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less heaviness, more energy and choice, and the capacity to reengage with what matters.

Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and depressive symptoms. You identity shouldn't be surrounded by your mental health state and I often work with clients to establish and work towards a new identity and lifestyle that focuses on freedom from their anxiety and depression. My style often is a mix of CBT or skill based therapy and a person-centered approach focusing on supporting you where you are at currently. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious and depressive thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Depression
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Depression rarely looks the same in every person — for many adults it shows up as persistent exhaustion, emotional numbness, loss of motivation, or a quiet sense that something is fundamentally wrong. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults and couples navigate depression, major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, and chronic low mood using a personalized, evidence-based approach. Treatment integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care to address both the symptoms and the deeper patterns driving them. Telehealth therapy for depression available across 40+ states.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with clients experiencing depression through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens that explores the emotional, somatic, and relational roots of low mood. Using Compassionate Inquiry®, we gently uncover patterns shaped by early experiences and life stress, while building self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful coping strategies. For some clients, we also explore the supportive use of microdosing as an adjunct to therapy, helping enhance self-reflection and emotional regulation. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space to reconnect with your inner wisdom and reclaim a sense of hope and purpose.

Depression
Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals experiencing depression in its many forms, from persistent low mood and loss of motivation to more complex, longstanding patterns of disconnection and hopelessness. Depression often impacts not just how someone feels, but how they see themselves, their relationships, and their future.
My approach is both compassionate and active. I focus on understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns that contribute to depression, while also helping clients re-engage with their lives in meaningful, manageable ways. Together, we work to identify what may be keeping them stuck, build greater emotional awareness, and gradually restore a sense of agency, connection, and vitality.
I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without being overwhelmed, and supported without being pushed too quickly—allowing change to unfold in a way that is both sustainable and deeply felt.

Aguib Diop
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
Depression is often maintained by a cycle of negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Once this cycle is identified, we start the challenging but rewarding process of replacing negative thoughts and behaviors with those that change how we feel about ourselves, our situations and our futures.

Ms. Jill C. Keogh

Depression, like anxiety, has many causes, and getting to the root of the cause is the best place to start. And then rebuild our sense of self on a stronger platform, so that we no longer tear ourselves apart.

Depression
Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
While depression isn't my primary focus a recent meta-analysis (study combining many studies) proved that focusing on treating worry and anxiety relieves depression as much as targeting it directly. My unique and simple approach to cognitive therapy for anxiety applies equally well to depression. Nonetheless, when we used relaxation only, to target worry and anxiety, it lifted depression as much as those groups who used cognitive therapy. However, if you are so depressed that you have recently contemplated suicide, I suggest you see someone in a group practice or someone who is willing to take emergency calls 24/7 because I do not do that.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and Hamburg Pavilion. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
