More about Misty

7 years' experience
Female
LCSW

My name is Misty Lewis, and I am a LCSW and obtained my Bachelor's Degree at Morehead State University, and my Master's in Social Work from the University of Kentucky.

I have almost 8 years of clinical experience working with adults with issues related to depression. anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, adjusting to life changes, grief/loss, other mental health related problems, and substance abuse issues. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, client-centered, and motivational interviewing. I believe that every individual needs an environment in which they can feel safe to share how they are feeling, and supported throughout their time in therapy. I provided therapy in which we work together to establish goals for your treatment and work together to achieve them.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
