ABOUT MAINSPRING
A Neighborhood Practice Built on Genuine Care
Mainspring was built on a simple belief. Mental wellness should feel approachable, evidence based, and part of everyday life. We believe therapy should be practical, personal, and focused on helping people build the skills they need to navigate life with confidence.
We are Northern Kentucky’s place for mental health, serving adults and teens in Covington, Florence, and online throughout Kentucky and Ohio.
OUR STORY
Built on a Simple Idea
Matt and Chris met while working together in community mental health. Every day, they saw the life changing impact therapy could have when people had access to it. They also saw how difficult it could be to find care that was both evidence based and genuinely welcoming, regardless of a person’s background or circumstances.
They believed people should not have to choose between exceptional clinical care and a space where they felt comfortable. Therapy should feel approachable from the moment someone walks through the door and leave people with practical skills they can use long after therapy ends.
That belief became Mainspring.
From the beginning, our mission has been to help people feel better, think clearer, and live well through evidence based care, genuine relationships, and a commitment to meeting people wherever they are in their journey.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Ideas That Shape Us
Wellness is for everyone
Mental wellness is something everyone can strengthen, not just something to focus on during difficult seasons. Therapy can help you navigate life with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose.
Life Is
Learnable
No one is born knowing how to navigate every challenge life brings.
Therapy can't remove pain or uncertainty, but it can help you build practical, evidence based skills that last a lifetime.
Connection
Matters
None of us are meant to navigate life alone.
Healthy relationships and supportive connections help us grow, build resilience, and move through life's challenges together.
THE TEAM
The People Behind Mainspring
Every therapist at Mainspring brings unique specialties, experiences, and perspectives to their work. What brings us together is a shared belief that meaningful relationships and evidence based care help people build the confidence and skills to navigate life well.
MAINSPRING
What's in a Name?
A mainspring is the driving force inside a mechanical watch. Though it’s rarely seen, it’s the part that powers everything else and keeps the watch moving.
As Matt and Chris searched for a name that captured the heart of the practice they wanted to build, they discovered a second definition: chief motivating force. That was the moment they knew they had found it. We believe mental wellness can become a chief motivating force in life. When we care for our mental health, it influences how we think, how we connect with others, how we respond to challenges, and how we pursue what matters most.
That’s why we chose the name Mainspring. Our mission is to help people strengthen that foundation so they can feel better, think clearer, and live well.
