Therapists in Bloomington, IN

Accepting new clients! Life can be tough, but I believe that with the right tools and support system, you can overcome any obstacle in your way. If you're struggling to find peace, feeling overwhelmed, or just seeking a more fulfilling life, you've come to the right place. My goal is to empower you to become the best version of yourself.

Are you struggling in life or a relationship? Perhaps you and your partner just can't stop arguing, or your new child has caused you to feel as though you have lost control of your relationship. Has your marriage been forever redefined by an affair and you're wondering what this means? Are you experiencing anxiety about a decision, unable to move through a transition, and feeling undefined in a world full of definitions? You are not alone. I have committed my life to helping people like you. Let me help reduce conflict, increase communication, and rebuild trust and healing.

Are you seeking a supportive space to heal, care for yourself, or explore the dynamics of your relationships? I specialize in guiding individuals, couples, and families through interpersonal and personal difficulties. Common concerns my advanced training equips me to work with include anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, intimacy issues, and trauma. My therapeutic approach integrates the evidence-based approaches of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), offering a holistic and personalized path to wellness.

The word psychotherapist is greek and means "Healer of the Soul". When you come into my office, I will not label you with anxiety, depression, addiction or any other disorder. You will hear me ask questions like: How is your addiction protecting you from pain? What do you not feel when depression numbs you? Once you witness and heal the wounds of your soul (you can also call it trauma), the symptoms (the 'disorder') can disappear. If you are interested in having a deeper understanding and awareness of your emotions, I will help you to develop a relationship with yourself that is characterized by curiosity, respect and compassion.

I completed a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Indiana Wesleyan University. I work within an attachment framework to help her clients gain awareness of the patterns they display in their relationships and guide them towards healthier strategies and connections. Within the area of attachment science, I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy where couples, families, and individuals learn new ways of interacting. I assist couples to reconnect and overcome areas of conflict, including infidelity, hurtful communication and/or past relational wounds.

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.

I especially enjoy working with young adults and older adults that are going through life changes.

Taking NEW Clients Clients with Anthem, Aetna, and Medicaid (MHS, traditional, and Anthem)! We are dedicated to helping our clients reach their mental health goals through evidence-based therapies.

We all have trauma, obstacles, setbacks in life, or times where we don't feel our best. It can be a struggle to just get through the day. Sometimes we find that those traumas and obstacles are too big to overcome on our own, and we need help. Therapy can be an excellent place to process through and heal from trauma, gain new coping skills or improve old ones, and develop the self-awareness and insight to reach new levels of personal growth. Whether it's a struggle with a mood disorder like depression/anxiety, major life adjustments like divorce, or processing through a complex trauma history, helping others heal is what I love to do

Therapy is a time to reach out and begin to make changes for how you want your life to be different . . . and a therapist helps you find the courage, gather the tools necessary and choose a path to go after it. I have over 25 years experience working with children, families and individuals to assist them in getting back on track with their lives. Specialty areas include children with behavior issues, recovering from abuse and trauma, and coping with divorce, along with all ages of adults wanting a higher quality of life as a result of anxiety and depression.

**I am currently full and unable to accept new clients. Hope to have more availability soon**I have a warm, collaborative working style that integrates a systemic theoretical orientation (understanding people's lives in the context of biology, relationships, work, and larger social/cultural systems) with highly individualized, evidence-based treatment. I enjoy working with people across the lifespan, from adolescence through older adulthood. I have extensive training/experience in the areas of family therapy (e.g., Functional Family Therapy), parenting, co-parenting through divorce/family disruption, trauma, and developmental challenges through adolescence and emerging adulthood.

People are often not aware of all the factors affecting their emotions and behavior because they reside at the unconscious level outside of our awareness. These unconscious issues may cause physical symptoms, emotional pain and frustration, or problems in working and relating. The unconscious mind cannot be dealt with directly by reading, journaling, self help advice, or well intentioned suggestions from family or friends. Medication alone and quick-fix therapy are usually inadequate.
