More about Harold

I am licensed in Kentucky and have worked over 30 years as a helping professional. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, building self esteem, dealing with addictive patterns, healing from codependence, getting back to true self and coping with all sorts of emotional, relational, vocational, spiritual and professional challenges. I work with my clients to create a safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy is a big move in the right direction.

It takes a lot of courage to reach out and I am excited for you as you start this journey of growth and healing!

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.

In a few sessions with Harold, he has already provided me with many tools and skills to manage my anxiety. He listens attentively, always remembers what we talked about in previous sessions together, and genuinely cares. I have done local therapy in the past, and I have learnt more from him then from anyone else I have spoken with previously.

I am currently working with Scott to adjust to a lot of stress I am experiencing in my life at the moment. Scott was such a helpful, kind expert and a consummate professional in helping me through my struggles. I would recommend Scott and would definitely work with him again!

Harold is a great therapist. One aspect that stands out is his method of always listening. At least for myself having someone with experience and solutions to explain how and what I’m feeling to really helps. He’s prompt with his responses to messages and always on time for our calls. I highly recommend him.

Scott is amazing! He's very easy to talk to and doesn't pressure you into talking about things you don't want to. He's helped me a lot already and he's been my therapist for 2 months now! We always take some time to just talk about random things as well since that helps making talk about the harder things less stressful!
