Meet Our Staff
Clinical Director
My name is Todd Noffsinger and I am the Clinical Director of the Talley Family Counseling
Clinic. I am a graduate of WKU’s Marriage & Family Therapy program (2008) and completed
my undergraduate degree at the University of Kentucky in Corporate Communications.
I spent seven years working in finance prior to returning to graduate school and have
since worked in a variety of settings including residential, community, and private
practice settings. Most of my post-graduate experience is in higher education and
private practice working with adolescents and adults as well as couples. I view therapy
as a partnership between client and therapist and enjoy working with anxiety/trauma,
addictions, phase of life concerns, and personal growth. My approach to therapy is
influenced by psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, post-modern, and systems perspectives.
I hope to establish a sense of comfort and safety within the therapy room and view
the client as the author and expert of their life—I hope to join and support persons
as they become more of who they are. In my free time I enjoy backpacking, reading,
and music with family and friends.
