Our Team

Ken is a psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience, focusing much of his career treating men struggling with addiction, anger, and the wide range of mental health related issues. He has committed years to learning how to hold space with others seeking to navigate through the ebb and flow of all that our mind, body, and spirit want to communicate. He understands people come to counseling because something has become too difficult to manage,, and previous coping has become ineffective at gaining control. But control is just an illusion and a misleading hyperbole.   Following the wisdom of Lao Tzu that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step he wants to share the gift of learning how to embody and “be present with” each step one takes along his/her journey. Ken does this using a variety of insights and strategies learned from both ancient and modern-day texts. In addition to his dual license as a Professional Counselor and Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Ken has also worked toward earning a Certified Breath Instructor status through which he provides services under the Freedom Breath resilience training service.  Ken is active on the following social media platforms: Instagram:    @kencaselden1

My motto is "Live life like you are living life". I believe change can happen with diligence and commitment. Do whatever it takes. This begins with therapy, I beleive.  I have been fortunate to witness the progression and success of many clients in the years I have been practicing. I am from Morganfield, Ky and am married with 3 step daughters and 3 grandchildren: Kaleb, Isaac and Eloise. I am a local city councilman and serve on several local boards. I retired from the Kentucky State government in 2016 and began to practice full time as a mental health therapist. I am a graduate of Lindsey Wilson College holding a Masters degree in education with an emphasis on mental health counseling. I am employed full time at Union County Preschool where I teach social emotional learning to 3-5 year olds! My approach to therapy is very empathetic and warm while still providing an ability of perspective to the situation.  I work with all ages/gender. I offer telehealth services outside of my service area.
