Scotty Caudill

Scotty Caudill is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, grief, depression, trauma, and compassion fatigue. He often works with people dealing with panic disorder and panic attacks and focuses on practical steps they can use between sessions. Scotty writes and speaks plainly, aiming to make therapy understandable and manageable for someone under pressure.

He prefers a relational approach that centers on mutual empathy and empowerment. That means sessions begin by listening carefully to what matters most to the person and then building from their strengths. He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to highlight concrete actions and short-term goals that move people toward relief.

Scotty has worked across community mental health, prison settings, long-term care, and hospice. He holds a Master of Arts in Psychology from Marshall University and a Master of Social Work from the University of New England. Those roles shaped his practical style and his attention to how trauma affects both mind and body.

In sessions he emphasizes simple, usable strategies alongside a steady therapeutic relationship. People can expect clear steps to try between meetings and a conversational tone in the room. He aims to help people build skills that fit into daily life and reduce the intensity of panic and anxiety over time.

Scotty lives in Kentucky and offers services in English. Outside of work he enjoys reading post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction and hiking in the Appalachian Mountains with his Great Pyrenees, Ghost.
