Paula Anderson, LMFT

Paula Anderson, LMFT

Psychotherapist
KY
I have been licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist for over 15 years. I have been in private practice for the last ten years in California, Washington, and now Kentucky. I earned my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Pepperdine University, which provided a strong foundation for my clinical work. I am very passionate about my work as a psychotherapist and have had the pleasure of working with a diverse population over my years in the mental health field. My broad base of knowledge and training includes trauma, attachment, parenting, mindfulness, guided imagery, addiction, and substance abuse. I have served as a certified crisis counselor through the Sexual Assault Crisis Agency (SACA) and have experience working with law enforcement and at-risk youth. Having served as the Clinical Director for two treatment programs, I am an expert in supporting individuals and families struggling with eating disorders and addiction. In addition to my professional experience, I have personally recovered from an eating disorder, which deepens my understanding and empathy. I have extensive experience working with Anorexia, Bulimia, Compulsive Overeating, and Body Dysmorphic Disorder, along with specialized training in intuitive eating and body image recovery.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
