Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in 47404

I believe clients are the experts in their own lives and my role is to empower clients. We work together to identify patterns that are no longer working and develop more helpful patterns. Together we challenge perspectives without judgement that may contribute to feeling stuck or helpless.

Welcome! Please check my website to see if I am accepting new clients. Congratulations on making it this far, because it takes courage to consider doing therapy. If you need a change or want to start on a journey of self-discovery, the next step is to reach out to someone. I look forward to meeting you, learning about you, and helping you to work toward the future you desire.

I strive to create an environment which fully supports my clients in making meaningful and lasting changes within their lives. My areas of specialty include depression and anxiety, substance use and misuse, LGBTQ+ populations, men and masculinity, college-aged students and those navigating life, family and career-related transitions. I completed my undergraduate, graduate and now doctoral work at Indiana University in education, counseling and human development, respectively. I have also worked at IU for many years in counseling, teaching and administrative roles, so I am well versed in campus and community culture.

I provide 24/7 on-call support for college students around the country and specialize in working with Indiana University students struggling with depression, anxiety, organization skills, and motivation issues. Parents are concerned and feel unprepared in dealing with these challenges. My counseling focuses on treating the underlying causes of depression, anxiety, and low motivation to get your college student back on track. Office and virtual sessions are available when busy schedules don't permit traditional support. Practice communication is secure and encrypted with professional security features.

Integrating art therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and talk therapy, I offer a unique treatment approach for adults, children, teens, and families. In my 27 years of practice, I have extensive experience working with trauma, abuse, sexual assault, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, grief/loss, and interpersonal difficulties. My approach is supportive, collaborative and strength-based. I find fulfillment in helping individuals experience empowerment, increase resilience and make life changes that are sustainable and rewarding. My office is located downtown Bloomington in the historic Faris Building.

I enjoy working with both complicated mental health concerns and generally healthy people struggling to adjust to their ever-changing lives. After identifying your goals in therapy, I will support you in understanding and overcoming barriers to these goals in the context of your life, mind, and body. The exploration this entails will help you generate self-compassion while accomplishing meaningful change. Your initial goals will be the focus of this exploration, but clients often achieve even greater change as well. I have particular skill working with personality disorders, sexual concerns, LGBTQ+ issues, and existential issues.

I offer telehealth and in-person sessions. I specialize in treating mental health concerns in adults and adolescents. I work with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship issues, and family issues. I am a trained EMDR therapist and specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma.

We are accepting new clients! We are a dedicated group of mental health therapists who provide the highest level of services. We have decades of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. Our main focus is the care of our clients. We take our time to truly understand what you are experiencing. Through this process, we will also work to help you to notice your feelings and reactions, develop your voice, and when appropriate, share this with key people in your life.

Currently accepting new clients for my waitlist, typically 3-4 week wait for intake session. I am glad you are here, it means you are taking the first step towards healing and wellness! I specialize in working with individuals with a history of childhood and adult sexual abuse, survivors of domestic violence, anxiety, and depression. I am LGBTQ+ knowledgeable and affirming, and I have a passion for working with teens and adults who are exploring their gender identity and sexual orientation, as well as those who are neurodiverse. As a former firefighter and paramedic, I also enjoy working with first responders.

No New Patients. I enjoy working with a variety of people and have extensive experience assisting individuals experiencing trauma related disorders, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I work with adults of all races, cultures, sexual orientations, gender orientations, and religions. I assist clients to explore ways stresses, traumas, and significant relationships have influenced them so that they may lead a more full, satisfying life. I'm an integrative therapist and am most influenced by EMDR, psychodynamic theories, and dialectical behavioral treatment. I collaborate with you to develop and pursue goals along the way.

I am not accepting new clients currently. If you are in a life crisis, a life shift, need behavioral changes, feel "stuck" or if you have found yourself in "transition" where life is demanding you adjust, I would be honored to assist you on your journey. I have a deep respect for the strength, resilience, and depth of people and am passionate about assisting with healing and authentic growth. My style is collaborative and integrates a variety of counseling approaches including; cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, educational, supportive and spiritual.
