My name is Gena Taylor-Tidwell, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky with a National Certified Counselor (NCC) certification.
My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can comfortably explore your concerns.

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.

I really appreciate Gena and her ability to ask pertinent questions and guide me to focus on root issues.
Gena was extremely easy to open up to from the beginning, she has a very soothing, caring and nurturing demeanor. She doesn’t interject her personal opinions, simply facts and offers the tools/resources to understand things. Cannot say enough great things about her.
I love working with Gena! She’s someone that I feel I can relate to and someone I can confide in. I’m so thankful I found her as a therapist.

I’ve never connected with a therapist like this. I can see myself growing and learning with her as my therapist.
Gena has been great to work with. She even recommended that I might seek another counselor with strengths in my specific area of needs. I would gladly recommend her council to my friends and family.
