Akhilah Cherry
LPCA serving the New La Grange Location
Hey! I received my Bachelors in Sociology from Simmons College of Kentucky in 2019, and Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in Expressive Arts Therapy from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2022. I am licensed as an LPCA in Kentucky, NCC Certified, and in the process of earning clock hours from the Trauma-Informed Practices and Expressive Art Therapy Institute to become an Expressive Arts Coach-Educator. Over the past couple years I have gained experience counseling clients of all ages (youth and adult), as well as individuals with various mental health differences. My approach to psychotherapy is person centered, while utilizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and various expressive arts mediums.
A bit about me: I am a mom of 5 (between 8 and 14 years old, including my two 20 and 22 year old bonus sons), and my happy place is the beach. My family takes trips to the beach at least once a year, every year. We have two cats, Milo and Luna, and a box turtle named Leo. Oh, and I absolutely LOVE chocolate!
