About
Life rarely follows a straight path. Relationships strain under pressure. Anxiety pulls you in directions you didn't choose. Grief reshapes everything you thought was solid. You don't have to navigate it all by yourself.
I'm Don Pitts, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Louisville. My practice is built on the belief that healing happens in the context of connection — with yourself, with your partner, with your family. Therapy isn't about fixing what's broken. It's about uncovering what's been buried and learning to move through life with more clarity and ease.
Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply feel something needs to shift, I offer a grounded, collaborative space where your story matters.
Services
Rebuild communication, restore intimacy, and break destructive patterns. Whether you're navigating a rough patch or rebuilding after a rupture, we'll work together to create a stronger foundation for your relationship.
Anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply the weight of existing in a demanding world — therapy offers a space to process, understand, and develop tools that actually work for your life.
Families change. Transitions, conflicts, and life events can shift dynamics in ways that leave everyone feeling disconnected. Family therapy helps restore understanding and healthy patterns of relating.
Anxiety doesn't have to be the default state. Together, we'll explore what's driving it, develop practical strategies, and build a relationship with your thoughts that feels more manageable and less consuming.
Trauma reshapes how we see ourselves and the world. Healing isn't about erasing the past — it's about reclaiming your present. I provide a trauma-informed approach that honors your pace and your resilience.
Career changes, loss, parenthood, relocation — transitions can feel destabilizing even when they're expected. Therapy can help you find your footing and move through change with more intention and less fear.
Approach
My approach is collaborative and client-centered. I draw from evidence-based modalities including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and trauma-informed practices — but the framework is always shaped by what you need, not by a one-size-fits-all model.
I believe therapy is most effective when it feels like a genuine human connection. That means showing up as my full self, respecting your expertise on your own life, and working together to define what healing looks like for you.
Whether we're working through relationship conflict, processing difficult experiences, or simply learning to relate to yourself with more compassion, the goal is the same: helping you live with more presence, clarity, and peace.
Everything you share stays here. Your privacy and trust are the foundation of our work together.
Your identity, background, and experiences shape your world. I honor that and bring curiosity, not assumption, to each session.
My methods are grounded in research and proven approaches, adapted to fit your unique situation and goals.
You're the expert on your life. I'm here to walk alongside you, not to tell you what to do.
