Hi there! I'm Caleigh Ball, LMSW — a dedicated mental health professional with a passion for helping children and families thrive.

With years of experience as a School District Social Worker and in the child welfare system, I bring a deep understanding of the unique challenges families face. My approach is rooted in empowerment and collaboration, always keeping your goals at the center of our work together.

I draw from a variety of supportive methods tailored to your needs, including trauma-informed strategies, play-based techniques, solution-focused conversations, and crisis support. I specialize in helping families navigate the impacts of intergenerational trauma, communication barriers, overwhelming stress, anxiety, and depression.

Outside of my work, you’ll find me enjoying the outdoors with my dogs or spending meaningful time with loved ones.

I'm here to walk alongside you and your family as you work toward a more connected, resilient, and hopeful future.

Hi, my name is Sarah, and I am a Mental Health Specialist with Kinder Mind in Mississippi. I am a 2012 graduate of Troy University, with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and 10 years of experience working with adolescents and college students, in both an educational and counseling setting. I have spent a large portion of my career working with girls ages 12-18 struggling with anxiety, depression, body image issues, addiction and self harm. This has only deepened my desire to do more for the children and families of Mississippi. The time I have spent working with children and young adults of diverse backgrounds has led me to a belief in client based therapy, with a focus on self esteem building. I also employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, person-centered therapy, mindfulness, and emotional processing techniques . I am passionate about providing care to the young people of Mississippi and look forward to meeting you soon!

Hi! My name is Nicole, and I’ve been a licensed master’s-level social worker and counselor for many years. I genuinely enjoy assisting individuals in achieving their goals or providing support during challenging times when they need guidance to find answers and solutions. I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including individuals struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, mental health issues, families, children, couples, and individuals grappling with trauma, anxiety, depression, intellectual disability, ADHD, and various other concerns. To cater to the unique needs of each client, I employ a range of therapeutic modalities, including person-centered approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, person-centered therapy, mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and humanistic therapy, among others. When not dedicated to my work, I relish spending time outdoors, particularly engaging in activities like kayaking and exploring nature.

Hello there! My name is Harley Spencer, and I am currently completing my MSW at UKY. I’m a Kentucky girl through and through, so if you decide to work with me, be warned you’re bound to hear my good ol’ country accent. I hope that it just adds a little extra charm in every session!

As a therapist, my passion for helping people drives my mission to provide compassionate support and guidance as individuals navigate life's challenges. My overall goal is to offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can experience healing, growth, and personal empowerment, no matter what you're facing. I have specfic experience working with women, teenagers/young adults, and individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and disordered eating. My passion for these areas grew during my time spent at an eating disorder clinic, where I had the privilege of supporting individuals through their recovery process. This experience deepened my commitment to helping those struggling with these specific challenges and reinforced my belief in the power of healing and transformation.

I welcome all individuals, regardless of background or religious perspective. For clients who wish to integrate faith into their therapeutic journey, I offer an optional Christian-based approach. Together, we can explore how your faith can support your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

Understanding that every client is unique, I take a client-centered approach to ensure that the care I provide is specifically tailored to your individual needs. Whether you're seeking healing from past wounds, guidance through a difficult season, or practical tools to improve your mental health, I am here to walk alongside you.
