Hello, I'm Elizabeth Middleton, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky and the owner of Middleton Counseling and Wellness, LLC. I am passionate about helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate life's challenges in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, behavioral challenges, and family-related issues. I also enjoy working with children and families through play-based interventions and developmentally appropriate therapeutic approaches.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe that healing happens through connection, trust, and collaboration, and I am committed to helping each client build on their strengths while developing practical tools for lasting change.

Hi, I’m Caitlin. I live in the beautiful Appalachian mountains of eastern Kentucky with my family.

I have enjoyed being an independently licensed clinical social worker for several years and am honored you are checking out my profile!

It is always so impressive to me when people have the courage to reach out for help. Life can be overwhelming, confusing, or heavier than it should and you’re not alone. You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, or identity-related challenges, and finding it hard to make sense of what you’re feeling or how to move forward. Many of the people I work with are used to pushing through and handling things on their own, but eventually feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, identity exploration, relationship stress, life transitions, grief and loss, ADHD, OCD, and women’s issues. Together, we’ll create space to slow things down, better understand your experiences, and begin building a clearer, more grounded path forward that feels aligned with who you are and what you need.

Therapist

Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.
