Women's Issues Therapists in Fishers, IN

I have over 20 years of clinical experience and specialize in treating women's issues , such as: post-partum depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship and career issues. My experience as a childbirth educator has enhanced my ability to treat the needs of post-partum women as they transition into motherhood. This journey is one that is often met with unexpected emotions and I help women identify these feelings so they can resolves issues that may complicate parenthood. I recognize the impact of pregnancy loss as well, and help my clients process through this very unique kind of grief.

Welcome! A fundamental part of my practice is the belief that creating a safe place where one can express themself freely and honestly is conducive to healing. I intend to walk alongside you and offer support and guidance to help you gain a sense of peace and control. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, substance abuse and other problems that are affecting your relationships, career, physical health and friendships. Through listening and applying different therapeutic modalities such as EMDR, I hope to help you find relief and solutions to current pains and past traumas.

I have worked in the field of addiction for the past 21 years and in that time I have developed an eclectic, "meet you where you are" approach to therapy. I am trained in EMDR to address a variety of issues including trauma and have additional training in transpersonal EMDR. Most substance abuse is a symptom of underlying trauma. Having witnessed the rewarding miracle of recovery, I believe everyone is capable and deserving of healing. I bring to my private practice a vast array of experiences to help you on your recovery journey whether that's in a 12 step program or through transpersonal energy work.

**EMAIL/TEXT FOR QUICKEST RESPONSE** I focus on a wide range of issues including substance abuse and addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships, setting and achieving goals, wellness, and coping with stress and trauma. My passion is helping others and offering support.

Life can feel overwhelming when it seems there are more challenges than triumphs. It is during those times that it can help to have someone come alongside us on our journey to highlight our strengths and help us build skills to conquer the challenges. I am passionate about working with older children, adolescents, and women who are dealing with adjustment, anxiety, attention-deficit, or depressive challenges, or who find themselves in various stages of self-discovery and life transitions. I also enjoy working with parents to strengthen family connections and with couples desiring to build or re-establish emotional connection.

Hello! Reaching out for help esp when feeling vulnerable & w/ unknowns, takes courage. The individuals that gravitate to my practice struggle w/ general anxiety, panic attacks & disorders, adjustments, self esteem, past trauma/s as well as low mood. What contributes to this is different, individual to individual. Together, in a private, comfortable setting considering your readiness/pace, we explore this & strategize. Growing trust & our relationship as well as providing psychoeducation are fundamentals of my work. Finding what helps you reach your goal/s is my top priority.

I desire to provide a safe space for people to be authentic and real, without fear or judgment, to help facilitate change and work towards restoring hope. I also desire to help others gain healing, transformation, and wholeness, integrating faith as clients desire.

My ideal client wants to process thoughts and feelings! He or she might feel stuck and wants help sorting things out to find clarity and move forward. My clients typically want to explore relationship issues, life's direction, sense of self, and new coping strategies. Are you feeling overwhelmed by an issue, thoughts, stress, anxiousness, and/or a relationship you’d like to improve? I'm here first to listen as an unbiased partner, and to help you sort through and reframe confusing or otherwise unhelpful thoughts/feeling patterns that might be obstacles in your path to self-acceptance, health, joy, and well-being.

Are you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or disappointed in yourself and others? Are you experiencing thoughts of being unimportant, all alone, or powerless? Do you struggle with “knowing” what is true but you often do not “feel” good enough or protected? It is time to honor your story authentically but with less pain and less struggle.

I am a licensed counselor with over 10 years experience in working with individuals and families. I want to meet you where you are in life and walk alongside you as you navigate various challenges. I work with women, teenagers, and young adults dealing with anxiety and depression. We work together to develop coping skills and mindful activities that work best for you.

I am currently completing a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Indiana Wesleyan University. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults dealing with various mental health challenges. I have experience helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, relational issues, and grief. I commonly work within an attachment framework to assist clients in gaining awareness of their relational patterns and guide them towards healthier strategies and healthier connections.

It's uncomfortable to reach out for help, to reveal our pain and personal matters to anyone, let alone a stranger. This is why my priority is creating a safe, judgment free space to build a genuine connection with my clients. In addition to developing strategies to relieve immediate distress, I apply my 15 years in mental health, from home-based to hospital crisis work, to help you identify the reasons behind your struggles and resolve the underlying causes. This provides the framework for positive growth and a deeper understanding of oneself, for lasting results.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.

After 35 years of experience, I approach life and therapy with a sense of humor, creativity and evidence based practices. Most clients report that I am easy to talk to and put people at ease. I enjoy challenges and exploring mind-body-spirit using ACT, CBT and EMDR. Complex issues are interesting to me along with normal life transitions, depression, anxiety and trauma. I welcome working with high school students, young adults, and adult individuals and couples of any age. My office or virtual office is a safe place to explore diversity of all kinds including LGBTQIA+ , disability and culture

Weekend and evening appointments available. Many of us turn to family and friends when we have an issue we want to work through. However, there are times when the problems we face are too personal or we don't want to burden others. This is where a therapist can provide support and guidance.

Transitions of all kinds can be SCARY and HARD, and may leave one stuck in a place of powerlessness and frustration. Living and getting through each day may be PAINFUL - whether because of isolation or too much togetherness and conflict (or both!). Struggles make hearing others and feeling heard more difficult. Managing our feelings and relationships is easier "wished" for than accomplished. I can help you choose the right words, figure out where you are in life and relationships, and find your way through difficult times.

Investing time to know my clients is essential to me as we are all impacted by family, social, cultural, and economical factors. I feel it is important that clients are given a safe space to share their stories. ​I have worked with children, teens, married couples, parents, and adults with various life situations, including people experiencing homelessness and addiction. I also have a history of working with individuals involved in ministry settings. I am a practical strategist for supporting people through life’s difficulties. As a heartfelt listener I love to help people find hope when they otherwise feel stuck.
