Services Provided
Comprehensive Behavioral Health Services in Kentucky
At KVC Kentucky, we provide compassionate and effective behavioral health services in Kentucky for children, teens, families and individuals. Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or continuing care, our dedicated team works with you to build a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Diagnostic Assessment – Your First Step Toward Care
Our master’s level clinicians use comprehensive assessment techniques to develop an accurate analysis of a patient’s presenting problems. This process will yield a plan developed in collaboration with the patient on what steps to take moving forward. KVC therapists very often work with patients with no prior history of behavioral health services along with those who are transferring from, or even currently working with, other providers.
Psychotherapy Services in Kentucky
Our master’s level clinicians provide therapy for a patient based on their individual needs and the collaborative treatment plan developed. They work closely with the service team to identify specific evidenced-based interventions and can provide therapy at a frequency and schedule based on the needs of our patients. Our therapists are dedicated to improving the overall wellbeing of their patients and helping them live successfully within their own homes and communities.
Collateral Therapy
Caregiver, personal support and community involvement are key components of successful behavioral health services. For children, it is crucial for caregivers to understand both their child’s needs and the systems involved. For all patients, it is essential that integral members of the support system stay informed and actively participate as needed. KVC therapists work with caregivers, family members, primary care physicians and community partners to meet the needs of the individual.
Family Therapy Services in Kentucky
KVC offers family therapy alongside individual and collateral psychotherapy when family dynamics are an integral component of the presenting problems. The objectives of this service will be collaboratively developed with the patient on the service plan and will focus on addressing relationships between family members which have a direct influence on the primary patient’s progress in treatment.
Case Management – Connecting You to Community Support
KVC case managers work diligently and quickly to find the proper care and provide community-based services that focus on the needs of the patient. Case management includes advocacy, resource development, team development, conducting collaborative service team meetings, accessing any needed medical, social, educational or other support services and coordinating services through inter-agency involvement and collaboration.
Psychiatry
Our Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) provides consultation, psychiatric evaluation, and ongoing medication management for clients as needed.
