Alifaire Sweeney, LICSW, LMFT — Therapist in Kentucky

Hi there, I'm Alifaire!

I enjoy working with couples, families, and children of all ages and backgrounds. I use a person-centered approach and compassion with my clients to promote positive growth and strengthen relationships.

My focus

I have experience working with individuals of all ages, including early childhood, treating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, bipolar, adjustment disorders, behavioral issues, ADHD, couples communication, trust issues, addiction, infidelity, and parent/child relationships.

My approach

I am sensitive to the needs of my clients and incorporate empathy and compassion in my work. The modalities I utilize include EMDR, parent-child interaction therapy, and multidimensional family therapy.

My communication style

My communication style is one of openness and gentleness. I allow my clients to freely explore themselves while facilitating hope and creating an alliance built upon trust.

My journey to mental healthcare

My drive to be a therapist comes from the compassion of serving others and striving for others to become their best selves.

My goals for you

Goal setting with my clients is a collaborative approach, allowing the client to direct their actions, while I assist with the tools to facilitate their success.

Our first session

During the first session, clients should expect positive regard, understanding, and trust to create hope for their future. I meet the clients where they are to build confidence in themselves.
