Richard Gantt

Prestonsburg, Kentucky - Licensed Professional Counselor
Online

My name is Rick Gantt. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - Supervisor in the commonwealth of Kentucky. I have over 20 years of experience working as a mental health counselor and have a very diverse set of experiences through the years with preferences in bipolar and mood issues, grief and mourning, anger issues, couples counseling and past traumas. I also have considerable experience working with substance and dual diagnosis. I prefer an adolescent through adult and even geriatric clientele. I am experienced and do care about those that I work with and enjoy seeing my clients succeed. I am an eclectic therapist which basically means that I use what I see is most effective for the Client.  Much of what we will talk about will be Gestalt therapy which attempts to help you be empowered to learn to make your own decisions and help to find the sources of issues within your past.  CBT and behavioral therapies are always useful in helping to see that by changing these thoughts you can easily change behaviors that follow.  I also use some psychoanalytic to help to see the influence that development has had on current thoughts and emotions.  And finally, Client centered which helps in creating an environment for learning as well helping in owning responsibility and empowerment to progress. If you are ready to get started just give me call at and I will get you on my schedule as soon as is possible for the both of us. If there is no answer it is likely because I am with another client, please leave a complete message with name, number, and reason for the call.

Joe Lara

Prestonsburg, Kentucky - Licensed Professional Counselor
Online

I am a licensed counselor in Kentucky with professional experience supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments. My clinical background includes working with clients across a broad age range—from adolescents to older adults—and from diverse cultural backgrounds. I specialize in helping people navigate the emotional impact of anxiety, anger, depression, trauma, and abuse. In addition to my counseling experience, I bring a unique perspective shaped by my military service, where I encountered a wide array of high-pressure situations that demanded resilience, strategic problem-solving, and effective stress management. These experiences have deepened my understanding of human strength and adaptability, and they inform my therapeutic approach today. I believe that healing begins with connection. Life’s difficulties and traumatic experiences can leave us feeling isolated and misunderstood—but you don’t have to face them alone. My role is to walk beside you, helping you identify the barriers that stand in the way of growth and guiding you toward a future that feels more aligned with your values and aspirations. You are the expert of your own story. I honor the strengths you already possess and will work collaboratively with you to build on them. Seeking support is a courageous act, and I’m here to empower you as you take meaningful steps toward greater fulfillment, clarity, and peace.
