Teletherapy for 46383

I am a licensed mental health therapist with over 13 years of experience. I have extensive experience working with teens, adults and elders. I work with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, grief, self- esteem issues, women’s issues, communication skills among other disorders. I believe in a holistic approach to psychotherapy. Working with several local community mental health centers have provided me with a strong foundation to work with a variety of client populations including outpatient therapy, inpatient psych, and chemical dependency and addictions. I have also spent a year working in residential treatment.

I have experience working with a wide range of clients including young children as well as older adults. My counseling style is relaxed, warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I believe in a person-centered counseling approach where my clients are able to feel a sense of respect and autonomy. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and strengths based. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I thoroughly believe that ANYBODY can benefit from therapy no matter what age, gender or race.

Emotions can be confusing, relationships can be messy, and past experiences can negatively impact our present lives, but with proper coping strategies, we don’t have to remain stuck in maladaptive patterns. Change can be scary and people often remain frozen due to the fear of the unknown. Change and acceptance are two concepts that are diametrically opposed but with the right mind set they can actually work hand-in-hand in order to promote growth and healing.

About 20 years ago I began working as an EAP and addictions counselor. I have followed various interests since. Work in health coaching and personal training during grad school was a blast and helped me appreciate the importance of holistic health. Seminary training gave me personal and professional insights into spirituality. Clinical and occupational expertise allows me to see the whole person in context of their education, career, and personal life. I have followed my passions with some ups and downs and hope to create a collaborative atmosphere, which leverages my insights to help others find, define, and refine their own.

My goal is to create a comfortable environment where my clients feel heard and understood. I believe therapy is a place where people can let their guard down and express their authentic thoughts and feelings. By gaining self-awareness, clients can better understand their innate strengths and find ways to incorporate these positive traits into their daily living. I also believe by better understanding their values, individuals can connect with a deeper sense of meaning and purpose, which ultimately contributes to a more fulfilling life.

I enjoy working with clients seeking help with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, LGBTQA+ issues, family issues and reintegration, and mindfulness.

Hello! I am currently offering office sessions, Telehealth and phone sessions to people during this time of renormalizing life. I am a licensed mental health counselor with a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling & a Ph.D. in Transpersonal Psychology. I recently completed a program focusing on nutritional consulting with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I work with people of all ages and I truly enjoy the process of therapy. I have been helping people for years and I can offer you safety and insight as you explore your stressors and create meaning out of your current experience.

We are a family oriented group practice comprised of several therapists with a variety of specialties, we offer in office, video and phone therapy sessions. We have therapists licensed in the following states: Indiana, Michigan, and Utah. We work with children, teens, adults and elderly adults in individual, couples, and family counseling. We work with substance abuse, trauma, grief, relationship issues, LGBTQ+, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and dealing with everyday issues and stress.

My intention as a holistic therapist is to help facilitate what I believe our purpose here is on earth, which is to become the best versions of ourselves. I help you process and work through traumas, toxic relationships, addictions, and/or poor coping skills that prevent you from becoming your best self. I use a combination of treatment modalities to custom fit your needs. I utilize EMDR, person centered, CBT, DBT, systems and attachment theory to facilitate the healing process. I also incorporate mind, body and spirit modalities to encourage a holistic transformation. I look forward to meeting with you!

I have worked with military veterans, inner city youth and LGBTQ+ from the South Side of Chicago, affected by complex trauma. I have been a life-long educator and scholar, teaching at all school levels, from kindergarten to college. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in history, and taught at the University of Notre Dame and Moscow School of Social and Economic Studies, among other places. I combine my clinical practice with research, and truly believe in education as an important part in growth and healing.

Currently accepting new individual clients! I offer a focus on holistic healing and stress management techniques that are trauma-informed and LGBTQIA-affirmative. I am passionate about helping all people gain clarity and feel more connected, calm, and self-compassionate. I’d love to help you meet your goals of feeling more present in the here and now, both with yourself and with your relationships. I also have an intern who is accepting clients at a significantly reduced rate. Please reach out to learn more!

I have a true passion to help individuals achieve their mental health and life goals, live in abundance and navigate through difficult life situations. If you are struggling to find peace, purpose or just need direction, I can help! I am currently accepting new clients for Ketamine-Assisted Therapy and Psychotherapy. KAT is proven to be effective for treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and addiction. KAT is effective with increasing mood, elimination of negative thoughts and patterns, and improving overall functioning. KAT and Psychotherapy may have better outcomes than with treatment independently.

My goal is to connect with families and provide support through education, parent training, conflict management, and navigating through ADHD, autism, and anxiety. Raising children who have communication, developmental, and cognitive differences can impact their schooling, friendships, and family life. As your child’s therapist, I use a collaborative approach between child or teen, parents, siblings, pediatrician, and school.

Are you not struggling, but also not succeeding to the level you desire? I believe that we all have the ability to reach our full capacity as individuals by changing our behaviors, thinking, and the way we react to various situations by learning more about our subconscious desires and motivators. I work with clients experiencing ADHD symptoms, anxiety, depression, and grief/loss. Together we can look at how your past experiences influences your mood, behavior, and relationships.

Feeling overwhelmed, tired, depressed, and hopeless? Experiencing emotional, visual, and somatic flashbacks? Always looking for danger in safe places? Even the strongest finds it difficult to enjoy normal life experiences when enduring emotional trauma. These events can take the joy of life and emotional connection with family and friends. As a professional trauma therapist, I can help you gain insight on traumatic events and uncover personal strengths. Through rediscovering your potential and learning new coping skills, you can find inner peace and a way to have a more positive relationship with your past.

As an experienced Licensed Social Worker, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and adults from various backgrounds. I believe my role as a clinician is to assist others in taking control of their circumstances to achieve their own goals, thereby helping themselves and others to maximize the quality of their lives. My educational background assumes a developmental approach which explains growth, change, and consistency though the lifespan in biological, social, emotion, and cognitive areas. Developmental psychology looks at how thinking, feeling, and behavior effect one’s health and perspective.

Do you often feel on edge, fatigued, or irritable? Do you feel like there are no other options or that no one is listening? Do you feel like you struggle to focus on the present because of so much thought on the past? Do you isolate or often feel down? These are all common for many of us at different parts of our lives. Many of us need support and struggle to discover who and what resources we have so that we may overcome life stressors. Therapy could be just what you need to tap into your best you! You have made a major step in your mental health journey just by searching for a therapist to fit your needs.

I believe everyone has certain abilities and gifts that lead them to their calling. With that in mind, I became a therapist because I wanted to help people achieve their full potential in a world where too many people feel unsupported and alone. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, families and groups who are open to new ways of thinking and being, and motivated to change. Side note: I am an avid sports fanatic (including some unique ones; curling is one of my favorites!), and i am an enthusiastic dog parent.
