Hi, I’m Travis Spradlin, a Licensed Professional Counselor in West Virginia. I graduated from Lindsey Wilson College in 2020 with a Master of Education in Counseling and Human Development. I’ve been providing psychotherapy for the past three years and have a passion for helping people find clarity, confidence, and balance in their lives.

I’ve worked with children ages seven and older, using an eclectic approach that combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, play therapy, and humanistic/person-centered techniques. In my telehealth practice, I enjoy working most with adolescents (13 and up) and adults. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful changes. Taking the first step toward therapy is an important act of self-care—and I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you begin that journey!

Hi! I go by Jess.

I completed my PMHNP program at Eastern Kentucky University in 2022. I have since worked a mix of outpatient, residential, and inpatient consultation positions focused in general psychiatry and addiction medicine.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist practicing in West Virginia. My medical school training was in Huntington, WV and my residency training was in both Charleston and Huntington. My primary focus is on providing care to our LGBT+ community, particularly transgender patients.

I offer a calm, supportive space where you can feel safe, understood, and accepted just as you are. Using CBT and EMDR, I help clients gently connect the mind and body, make sense of patterns, and work through experiences that feel overwhelming. Therapy is a collaborative process where we move at your pace, building trust, insight, and tools to support healing and meaningful change.
