About Scotty
LCSW in Kentucky with 25 years of experience, Scotty Caudill helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and compassion fatigue. He also focuses on forgiveness, obsessions and compulsions including OCD, panic disorder and post-traumatic stress. Scotty uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy as central parts of his practice and describes his overall approach as relationally oriented.
Scotty works in a straightforward way. He treats conversations as practical problem-solving. He pays attention to how stress and trauma affect daily life and physical health. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify strengths and small steps that move people toward their goals.
When trauma is present, Scotty looks at its effects on routines, relationships, and body symptoms. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new actions. Sessions aim to build clearer thinking and manageable practices people can use between meetings.
Scotty has a long career across community mental health, correctional 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, and practices as an LCSW in Kentucky.
He is practical about the work and prefers collaboration with the person in front of him. Outside of practice he reads post-apocalyptic and dystopian fiction and spends time outdoors in the Appalachian Mountains with his Great Pyrenees, Ghost.

How his approaches inform online sessions
Scotty commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes strengths and small, practical steps to move toward the goals a person sets for themselves.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to decide which method or combination fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change as therapy progresses and as practical needs shift.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit meetings into a busy week. They may also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited or let someone avoid travel time. Licensed professionals often use online work to extend access and consistency, and he will discuss practical arrangements during the matching and scheduling steps.
