Olivia Gibson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW/Therapist
It seems your “colored glasses” are tinted dark with a tinge of black. “You’re not good enough.” The voices of self-doubt are winning out. “If only you were...” swirls in your head after presenting at work, taking a hard test, or spending time with a social group. There’s a loss of motivation to do the things that you did before. It might be that retreating to your couch is the only thing that sounds of any interest to you lately. It’s exhausting to summon the effort it takes to continue forward. To make matters worse, people are starting to be put off by your glass-half-empty mood at a time when you need them to give you a break.
When is it time to take action? If your depression takes over and keeps you from living fully, it's time. I help individuals like you to step out of the darkness and self-doubt, launching forward. By giving you practical ways of feeling better within the context of a supportive and caring relationship, you’ll overcome even the darkest depression.
Now is the time to put your life back on track. Let's explore your struggles together, uncovering the feelings, attitudes, and beliefs that are keeping you from living your best life. We'll replace them with a new level of empowerment and a deep sense of value, purpose, and lasting change. Call me now to set up your free consultation, let's get started.

Amanda Durham
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPCC-S, NCC
I help people who are feeling drained, unmotivated, or weighed down by sadness and self-doubt. Depression can make even the simplest tasks feel heavy. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand what’s going on beneath the surface, reconnect you with a sense of purpose, and gently build habits that support healing and hope. You're not alone, and things can get better.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
When depression takes hold, even capable and responsible people may find their energy, motivation, and focus gradually fading. What once felt manageable can begin to feel heavy or overwhelming. I provide structured, evidence-based therapy to help clients better understand depression, regain momentum, and reconnect with a sense of direction and engagement in their lives.

Online in Lexington, KY Kentucky
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.
