Attachment-based Therapists in Canterbury, Indianapolis, IN

I specialize in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, depression and personality disorders and work primarily with adults and adolescents. My approach is strengths-based, person-centered and sees the client as the expert in their own experiences. It is my belief that therapist and client are in equal partnership with the goal of empowering people to take control of their lives. There are so many reasons people go to therapy, but at the center of every struggle and success is fundamental self-worth. The life you want starts with the belief you deserve it. You can learn more about me and my approach at wildwellcounseling.com.

I support people who want to explore social isolation and confusion due to current social issues, body image and gender, relational wounding, disconnect, life transitions, aging, stress and trauma. I am also here for adult immigrants to the US to guide them through the challenging transitions they encounter and to explore their sociocultural identities within the present context of their life and their culture of origin. I also work with people who experience symptoms medically otherwise unexplained (brain fog, fatigue) that build on our unique neurophysiological patterns of reaction to stress.

Feeling stuck and having trouble engaging with what really matters to you? Your brain has done an excellent job keeping you safe, but some strategies developed as a reaction to stressors may no longer meet your needs. Issues like family of origin discord, medical illnesses, neurodiversity, and stressful work environments can all add up to impact our relationship with ourselves and others. I especially love working with high achievers who have issues with perfectionism, burnout, dissociation, attachment, and procrastination.

Are you feeling lonely in your relationship? Are you lacking meaning in your daily life? Have you been having the same arguments over and over again? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and/or others? Are you looking for someone to hear your story? I would love to have that honor and carry the hope for you until you can pick it back up again. We are given the gift of one another in our marital and family relationships to love and support us through our daily journey. We are part of a system that forms and challenges us. I can help you improve communication, intimacy, and family interaction while working through emotions.

Are you tired of feeling stuck or struggling to cope? I am a psychodynamic therapist who is interested in helping you find meaning in your life. I believe that life is a journey toward wholeness and that therapy is best understood as a way to move forward with the help of a competent therapist who can partner alongside you. I hope to help you reclaim what has been lost and discover what has yet to be found to promote wellness, wholeness, and healing.

I am passionate about reducing suffering. My expertise is in helping women and teens struggling with depression, anxiety, feeling stressed/overwhelmed or "not good enough". I help women on their paths to parenting whether they are dealing with infertility, experiencing challenges in pregnancy/perinatal/postpartum, or needing support in parenting their children or balancing the demands of their lives. I have 13 years of clinical experience and 10 of those years have been spent treating children/teens with depression and anxiety (and often self-harming behaviors) in an intensive outpatient setting. I understand the stresses of teens and connect well with them.

I truly believe we all have the strength and power within ourselves to heal from trauma and heartache. Channeling that strength can feel impossible with the complexities of everyday life. It is my duty and passion to assist you in building up supports and resources to help you on your journey to recovery and healthy living. I utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help you conquer mental health issues, addictions, emotional disturbances, sexual health issues, relationship strife, grief and loss, and trauma (past and present).

I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, life changes, and relationship issues. My work focuses on guiding people through battles with self-criticism and doubt toward a place of greater acceptance and peace.

Life can be difficult and messy. Everyday, we try to do our best, sometimes our best doesn't look so good, and that's OK. Everyone deserves to have someone to talk to that can lend an objective ear to any and all things that are going on in your life, without judgement. My goal is to create an open environment for people of all ages, faiths, creeds, ethnicities, sexualities, identities, and backgrounds, to come and share their life in a safe place. Whether you are experiencing highs or lows, I am here to help you cope with and process personal and external stressors in your life, unexpected events, and much more.

I seek to partner with individuals in overcoming barriers to the life they want to lead. Life undoubtedly comes with challenges and circumstances that may at times contribute to distress. I believe we all have existing strengths and the ability to cultivate new strengths and skills to face these challenges and thrive. Growth is a continual life process, and each new experience and stage of life presents an opportunity to discover ourselves and the world around us. If you find yourself seeking to address emotional and behavioral concerns in a judgement-free and safe space, I am here to help.

Anyone is welcome in my therapy room, but I connect best with people who are eager to put in the necessary work to become the best, most self-actualized version of themselves. I'm particularly passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ folks and survivors of interpersonal trauma. I'm also currently pursuing my AASECT certification to become a certified sex therapist and enjoy working with people exploring their identity or deconstructing/unlearning harmful cultural norms around gender and sexuality. I strive to create an environment where my clients can feel safe to be their most authentic selves.
