Nurses in Recovery Program
A Safe Place for Healing and Professional Growth
Recovery is never easy, especially for nurses. Years of caring for others, high responsibility, and ongoing fatigue can take a toll on well-being. When your health and professional standing are on the line, the path to recovery and reinstatement requires courage, resilience, and guidance.
At Sycamore Counseling Services, we recognize that courage. Our Nurses in Recovery Program was intentionally designed to walk alongside nurses through recovery, reinstatement, and professional growth with empathy, clinical expertise, and structured support.
We approach every nurse as a whole person. You are a dedicated professional navigating challenging circumstances. Whether you are:
Participating in Kentucky Board of Nursing (KBN) monitoring,
Completing KPRN requirements, or
Entering recovery through self-referral,
Sycamore Counseling provides a safe, supportive environment to foster healing and professional renewal.
Our licensed clinician, Kasey Teasley, is an approved assessor and treatment provider with the Kentucky Board of Nursing, ensuring that all assessments, therapy sessions, and progress reports meet Board standards for reinstatement and ongoing monitoring.
What Makes Our Program Different
Our program provides structure, understanding, and clarity, addressing the unique needs of nurses in recovery. Each recovery program includes:
Consistency: A set number of sessions to maintain continuity of care and stay on track with Board requirements.
Accountability: Progress reports and documentation are included—no hidden fees or surprise paperwork.
Comprehensive Support: Coordination with monitoring programs, case managers, and other professionals ensures cohesive care.
Optional Faith Integration: Incorporate faith-based principles to strengthen hope and resilience.
Flexibility: Sessions can be completed in person in Paducah or virtually across Kentucky, fitting your schedule.
Financial Clarity: One clear, predictable cost covers all required documentation and reporting.
Our goal is to remove as many barriers as possible so you can
focus on healing, recovery and professional renewal.
Why Specialized Support Matters
Nurses in recovery face challenges that differ from other professions. Compassion, professional standards, and high expectations can make it hard to ask for help.
At Sycamore Counseling, our clinicians combine clinical expertise with empathy, acknowledging the realities of nursing culture, stress, and trauma while fostering accountability and growth. Recovery is not about perfection—it’s about progress, resilience, and self-care.
