Scotty Caudill

Therapist

Virtual • Kentucky


Hi, I’m Scotty! It is my goal to join with you and guide both of us in growth through the power of the therapeutic relationship. Although I describe my therapeutic approach as eclectic, I lean heavily toward Relational-Cultural Theory. I believe that people grow in relationships that exhibit mutual empathy and empowerment. I have particular interest in the effects of trauma on an individual’s mental and physical health and methods in which those effects can be mitigated.

Solution-Focused Therapy is an integral part of my practice as well. SFT is a solution-focused, future-oriented form of therapy that focuses on your strengths as a way to reach your goals. In this paradigm, you, the client, are viewed as the expert on your life.

I have worked in the field of mental health for nearly 30 years. My clients have come from all age groups, educational levels, and socioeconomic statuses. I have worked with clients in community mental health, prison, long-term care, and hospice. I hold a Masters of Arts in Psychology from Marshall University and a Masters in Social Work from the University of New England.

In my free time, I enjoy reading post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction. When I’m not reading, I spend hours enjoying nature in the Appalachian Mountains along with my Great Pyrenees, Ghost.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Louisville, KY

When you’re searching for OCD therapists in Louisville, the most useful first step is finding someone with specific training in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, checking, counting, reassurance seeking, or avoidance. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one approach some therapists use to support people with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who name ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy for OCD, or related OCD experience in their bios.

Louisville offers a balanced mix of in-person and virtual therapy options, so your search can include both office location and schedule fit. A therapist near your neighborhood or commute may work well for in-person sessions, while virtual appointments can expand your options across Kentucky. Pay close attention to whether a therapist lists OCD as a general specialty or describes direct experience with ERP. That difference can help you identify a stronger clinical match. Provider bios can also show session style, therapeutic approach, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Therapy in Louisville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket session cost. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, with many providers accepting insurance and showing estimated costs before you book. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
