OUR APPROACH

Our approach to helping has served thousands of people in Kentucky over the last 24 years. We care, and it shows. Our professional counselors, therapists, and our psychiatric nurse practitioners will provide your behavioral health treatment in a confidential manner within our private setting. At our practice, you decide the treatment goals and we help you reach those step by step. Your trained professional will develop a trusting professional relationship with you that provides the foundation for counseling and therapy and will help you become the person you want to be. You will find that we help you right where you are and focus on the solutions in your life, not the problems. We have 5 local locations with KY professionals and have recently added a few telehealth providers available to all of our Kentucky clients. We enjoy taking pride in providing a service that you will recommend to your family and friends.


OUR MISSION

Our mission is to provide high quality, compassionate, outpatient mental health care. We start that with live administrative staff (7-9) that answer our phones directly from 8:30am-5:00pm Monday through Friday. Yes, you can text us, submit an online contact for services, and of course, call us, and we will answer. It's that personal and private touch that you can trust. We want to make long lasting relationships with our clients regardless of how long they are in therapy initially. Many people come back months or years later, refer family and friends to us, and may revisit us for another round of therapy or a different reason all together.


OUR LOCATIONS

The next thing we do very well is provide a safe, trusting, clean, and modern environment for your visit in a good, safe neighborhood or business district. You can see all of our offices and locations online. We regularly update our furnishings, have regular cleaning services, and take pride in where we meet with you.


OUR PROVIDERS-The best PART!

The providers at Lexington Counseling and Psychiatry are all hired directly or approved by Paul Dalton. Paul has been helping others for over 25 years and is very selective on who he hires to help others in his name. In many cases, people have undergone hours of interviews, background checks, reference checks, and peer/assistant reviews to find the absolute best professionals we can. Although all of the providers at our locations are independent practioners with their own tax id and liability insurance and responsibility for your care, we work closely with them to provide a supportive environment, clinical consultation, and offer training to improve their professional skill set. Our organization attracts the best professionals in Kentucky by paying them very well, offering a calm, supportive and professional environment while treating them with dignity, respect, and as the professionals they are. We have the best therapists and APRN's in Kentucky. There is no one that can match our provider specialties, experience, depth of knowledge, and range of ages and areas of expertise.


WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU!

At Lexington Counseling and Psychiatry, we can help you develop goals and a plan to help you in a way that you decide. We meet you right where you are and focus on helping you solve your problems and issues. We don't focus on the problems. You have probably done that enough. You set the goals. We develop the plan together. We provide you objectives to meet them.


Through a trusting and caring relationship, in a nice, comfortable outpatient setting, we help you learn the skills you need. Our providers use their experience and expertise to help you solve these issues going forward and to gain indepenedence from us so you may solve whatever is happening in the future. This is an extremely important aspect of outpatient mental health, as some providers may just try to keep you afloat or may not have the ability to teach you how to help yourself going forward. Not here. Although we will always have a practice in Kentucky, as we have for 24 years and be available for you, it's really important that when you decide you've reached your goals, you are able to function in a way that you are proud of. Becoming dependent on a provider and needing to stay with them for years and years is not normally part of our plan. Sometimes it does take longer to solve some specific or unique issues and that's OK. We will never tell you how long to stay in therapy and we will never control that type of outcome and timeframe. You do.


Since we offer multiple types of providers, many times, you don't have to go anywhere else. At times, we serve an entire family through different provider types, areas of specialty, genders, and ages of our providers, and a comfortable fit for you. We work extremely hard to be the best in Kentucky. We hope to see you soon.

Read our reviews

  • Jessica (and 2 others when she was on leave) is always attentive, listens, has positive suggestions without demanding or judging. She never makes me feel bad, just encourages. She has been an invaluable help in my life. I wouldn't have made it through the past few years without her.
    Patricia S.
  • Paul Dalton is an amazingly practical therapist. He gave me life enhancing advice upon my first visit and has continued to guide me year after year through what life can dish out. Whether dealing with family struggles or big transitions his advice is always spot on. I’ve witnessed his work with adolescents and recommended him to many friends. Even if not dealing with crisis or serious mental health issues it seems to me a periodic “head check” with a good therapist like Paul just a healthy thing to do. I always leave feeling relieved if not downright good.
    Connie M.
  • Paul and his team are truly exceptional. Their professionalism and well-trained staff made my experience outstanding. I highly recommend them – they go above and beyond to take care of their clients!
    Daniel T.
  • My daughter and I had an appointment with Paul Dalton to address some issues. He was very knowledgeable and professional. He was able to help my daughter get her life on track. Wonderful place, glad we found them.
    Kanta R.
  • Lucy Bailey has been such a blessing in my life. She is so good at what she does and truly cares about her clients. I am so grateful for LCP. I can not recommend them enough!
    Lindsey C.
  • I love coming here. The staff is extremely sweet and always willing to answer your questions. And the counselors are just absolutely awesome. They are not worrying about entering your information into a computer/tablet or even worrying about collecting your money. They are there for you and they listen. I also enjoy how the waiting rooms are NOT crowded. I feel more confident as well. I have been to two other locations for a therapist and I must say that this is by far the best place I have been and will continue going to.
    Susan A.
  • I had the privilege to have Paul Dalton as my LPCA and CADC supervisor for several months. Paul was a terrific supervisor and helped guide me, as well as my professional career. He and his staff were very helpful and went out of their way to help me several times. The staff were very professional and were always friendly. I would highly recommend the Offices of Paul Dalton to anyone in need of counseling services. Paul and his staff are highly experienced and well-trained. Paul is a compassionate counselor who seeks to serve his clients to the fullest extent.
