Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Louisville, KY

I have spent the past 15 years helping adolescents and teens work to see beyond today. I am certified in Trauma Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Multi-Dimentional Family Therapy, and Seeking Safety. As well as long practiced in Trauma Informed Care. I have received both my Bachelors in Psychology and Masters in Professional Counseling from Liberty University, and am currentlyy working towards completing a Doctorate in Traumatology from Liberty University. My trauma work originally stemmed from being a Marine Corps veteran, and witnessing the effects on my comrades. However, grew into youth work through becoming a part of the local education system. I now love working with kids to have a brighter view of their future.

My top priority is making sure we remove the barriers stopping you from living the life you want and deserve. I am stubborn in that I want to keep persistent in making sure you reach your goals. I incorporate mindfulness into much of my practice and will help you build grounding skills and a present centered focus to benefit your life and processing.

I am formally trained in several approaches: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, among others. The bulk of my training has focused on treating trauma and being trauma informed, though I have a special interest area of perinatal mental health, reproduction concerns, and infertility/loss.

I have a passion for helping those in need find their inner strength and resilience. We all have it within us to find solutions to our problems; sometimes we just need some guidance. I offer an integrative, client-centered approach to counseling. I place considerable value in building a strong therapeutic relationship. Just one small step is all it takes to begin the process of change. Whatever is going on, let's explore together!!!

Hi, I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky, working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and substance use. I know reaching out for therapy takes real courage, and my goal is to make our first conversation feel grounded and easy. When I'm not in session I'm usually writing, hiking, or keeping up with my grandkids — I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human conversation, not a script. If you're looking for a warm, non-judgmental space to work through what's weighing on you.

I am a LPCC with 10 years experience in community mental health, school based services, and private practice. I have a passion for mental health and enjoy helping people grow and find their own potential. I have an Ed.S in Clinical Mental Health Counseling & enjoy working with children, teens, and adults. I find my specialty is in trauma and am trained in TF-CBT for children and EMDR.

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, carrying grief that feels heavier than expected, struggling with ADHD, or simply trying to make sense of a difficult season in life. Whether you're an adult navigating life's challenges or a child learning how to express big emotions, therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and discover new ways forward.

It is my joy in life to help my clients re-discover their true self. We do this together by challenging old paradigms that get us stuck. As we uncover the true self, I will also help you develop new skills for coping as you move from surviving to thriving. I am a Master's level Professional Counselor, comprehensively trained in DBT, IFS, and NARM.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I treat a wide range of mental health challenges including anxiety and stress, mood disorders, trauma, depression, coping with chronic illness, military family life, and life transitions. I have 30 years of working with service members, families and support system members.

I became a therapist because I believe our struggles deserve to be understood, not just fixed. Too often, people come to therapy feeling like a problem to be solved or a checklist to work through, and that's exactly what I want to push back against. My goal is to help you feel more human, not more clinical.

I earned my Master's in Social Work from Northern Kentucky University in 2014 and hold a certificate in ADHD treatment. I work with adults navigating ADHD, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder, and I bring both professional training and personal familiarity to these areas. I know this stuff isn't abstract. It shows up in real life, in real ways, every day.

I’m Dr. Michelle S. McBride, DNP, PMHNP-BC, MBA, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive mental health care.
