Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

Life's challenges bring us to our knees. A Licensed Professional Counselor, "LPC", helps. Since 1990 my work with courts, hospitals & schools has helped. I have "been there" -- I "get it". While working F/T for UC, I earned my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling (diagnosis & treatment of mental & emotional disorders) before earning my Doctorate at UD in my 20's as a F/T employee. As Practice Owner & Miami Univ (OH) Licensed Clinician, research shows us DBT, EMDR, and CBT work. In 1990, at Beech Acres, 1st approved by the Supreme Court of Ohio to Co-Lead, a Specialized Family Mediation Training for Attorneys & Therapists.

Change is all around us, as a natural part of every life. It can happen in an instant, or it may come around slowly. Whether you are encountering a situation you didn't expect, or choosing to move forward in a different way, it can be helpful to have a listening ear and supportive presence. As a counselor, my goal is to help you feel heard, understood and companioned on your journey.

I will help you get through your difficult life challenges so you can feel more confident, happy and whole. If you are struggling with your health, significant loss, or difficult circumstances within your family or work life, I can guide you, educate you, support you, connect you, and most importantly believe in you, so you can shift from hurt to hope, chaos to calm, and overwhelm to opportunity. I do this work because I truly believe each person is worthy to feel valued, heard, and understood and to have a fulfilling life that is meaningful and purposeful.

Managing life’s stressors can be challenging. Reaching out to talk to someone can be the first step toward living the life that you choose.

I have immediate openings available for individuals from all walks of life and I now have openings for clients seeking EMDR. Making the choice to start your therapy journey doesn't come easily. It often takes hitting a low point, feeling isolated, or stuck. When you feel like that dark shadow is following you, forming a strong therapeutic relationship can bring back the light in your life. As a therapist, I am here to guide you, support you, and provide a mirror for you to learn more about yourself and how to heal. You are here because you still have hope, and I am here to help you foster that hope into a brighter future.

I work with a variety of individuals, couples, and families dealing with such problems as anxiety, depression, stress management, and relationship difficulties. One of my special interests is assisting clients with improving their decision-making in important life areas. Recently I published a book on judgment and ways to enhance it. I am also experienced in providing psychological evaluations for assessment of attention deficit disorders, fitness for bariatric surgery, and court-related issues. I look forward to helping others explore strategies to enhance well-being and lead more fulfilling lives.

Having been a psychologist in practice for many years, I have developed a professional interest in assisting individuals with complete and thorough psychological testing and evaluations. Such evaluations are focused upon learning disabilities and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorders

I am a licensed therapist with a Masters in Social Work. My degree has given me the fundamentals necessary to embark on the journey of becoming a licensed mental health therapist. It has helped me learn to identify what people think and how they react to different situations. It also helped me to recognize the appropriate way of dealing with people and helping them without making them feel uncomfortable. Making sure my client’s understand their own problems properly while involving them in preparation for a plan of action is a goal I as a therapist strive for.

There is no such thing as an ideal client. That is too boring. The way I do therapy is relaxed. I am not your average therapist, and I am not going to be like, "How does that make you feel?" but I am going to say, "What up! How are we doing today?" I never stop learning, and when you have me as a therapist, you will see that you will fall back in love with learning. Overall, I am just honored you allowed me to help you! Also, the best way to reach me is to Email over calling due to normally being in session, and I want to respond to you as quickly as possible!
