Hi, my name is Nick Riemenschneider, pronounced Ree-Men-Shn(eye)-Der. I am a fully licensed Master's level clinical counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky. I have been doing this work since 2019. I believe every client is unique and whatever issues they are facing are unique from their perspective. I often find myself teaching my clients self-love and conscious awareness. Self-Love is crucial and my motto is: Know Self, Accept Self, Love Self.
My approach to mental health counseling is considered eclectic meaning that I utilize concepts and aspects of many different theories, applications, and modalities. I am Trauma-Informed, Level 1 Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) certified, Autism Specialist certified, DBT certified, Transpersonal Psychology minded, and soon to complete certification in Ericksonian Solution Oriented Hypnosis.
Usually, I begin with an exploration of childhood experiences. I find that the root of the issue often lies within the first 8 years of a person's life. I believe every client deserves to experience validation which is to be seen, heard, and acknowledged. They also deserve to experience unconditional positive regard, a sense of acceptance, belonging, and value, and a reasonable amount of joy. These are basic needs that often go unmet in childhood.
