Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) Therapists in Lexington, KY

Are you looking for an effective and experienced therapist? I have over 20 years of experience working with adults to address challenges that inevitably disrupt our lives, giving us an opportunity to reconsider our values while exploring and implementing new solutions aligned with those values. Life can be joyful at times, yet life can also bring anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. As a psychologist, I help adults 18-50+ years old navigate these difficult moments. Reach out to me to schedule a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Our mission is to provide the finest services to assist individuals, couples, families, and businesses to energize and heal themselves and their relationships to connect at the most intimate level possible, because–“It’s All About Relationships!”

As a licensed Ph.D. clinical psychologist for over twenty-five years, I have helped hundreds of clients to understand not only why they feel debilitated and burdened but how to overcome these challenges and achieve greater balance in their lives. Together, we can make changes that will last, and give you greater hope for the future, and a healthy, more complete sense of well-being.

Therapy is an investment. Much is at stake. Is it your career, your marriage or your life? Not all therapists are equally skilled. I want you to know my expertise & how I will help you before you see me. Listen to my free audio at REBTDoctor.com I have practiced for 31 years.

With over two decades of experience working in diverse therapeutic environments—ranging from outpatient clinics to psychiatric hospitals, adventure programs, residential treatment facilities, schools, juvenile corrections, and a military hospital—I bring a wide-ranging perspective to problem-solving and overcoming life's obstacles. As the Founder & President of two award-winning mental health centers with a staff 150, I've gained a holistic and interdisciplinary approach to care.

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 the Hamburg area. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
