About Dr. Cynthia Hanson

I am a doctoral-level psychologist licensed in Kentucky with over 30 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, anger management, physical and emotional trauma, PTSD, and LGBTQ concerns.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. I place emphasis on the client becoming their own “agent of change” by identifying areas for change or modification. Although I gather information about past history, my primary focus is about determining how to improve psychological, emotional, and life circumstances in the “here-and-now.” I will never tell you “what to do.” Instead, I will serve as a guide as you explore and consider the changes you want to make. My primary therapeutic approach is Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, but I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
