Therapists in Traders Pointe, Indianapolis, IN

Life changes and trauma can lead to disconnection from ourselves and others. This disconnection can manifest as anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Through therapy, we can untangle the changes and trauma so we can truly hear ourselves. Our work might include emotional processing and regulation, self-compassion, self-acceptance, and mind-body awareness. At each step, I will check in with you and guide the pacing to fit your needs and goals. (See my website for more information.) Authorized to practice in all PsyPact states via telepsychology.

Sometimes we all need a moment... just to be heard. Life can get overwhelming at times, and we forget that we are only human, and sometimes need a little help to navigate the challenges. Whether you are facing a life crisis, relationship issue, or serious mental illness-- there is a way back to happiness and well-being. Let me help you find that path.

In my practice I see clients of all ages with a wide variety of concerns. I practice from a person-centered approach, which means that your goals are my goals and we will work on them together. I offer individual and family psychotherapy as well as psychological testing. Within this practice I want to help you or your child make positive changes in life to reduce struggle. I create a warm, nonjudgmental environment that allows you to have the space to explore various solutions and find what works best for you. Clients who work with me see functional improvements and behavioral changes in their lives.

I believe that everyone can benefit from counseling and therapy at some point in their lives simply because no one has had a perfect life and we all struggle sometimes. I applaud your courage in beginning the process of reaching out for support. I want to create a safe space in which you can share thoughts, feelings and behavior without judgment and where together we can explore them further and develop strategies to change those that are causing problems and strengthen those that are helpful and working well. I have experience working with addictions, trauma, dissociation, borderline personality disorder, and mood disorders.

Connecting with a therapist can feel intimidating: opening up to anyone can make us feel vulnerable, especially when the things we feel we need to talk about most are also the most painful. Choosing a counselor with experience can help make this process easier. In my more than 20 years experience as a therapist, I’ve found that allowing clients to test the waters, and build a rapport with me is important before diving into painful experiences. During this initial phase, we’ll identify strategies to help reduce symptoms. Some clients feel this is all they need; others choose to further explore their potential for growth.

Your life's story is an exciting collection of moments that create memories. We all experience highs and lows, ups and downs; good days and not-so-good days. This variation of experiences is normal ... until it feels like it isn't. When the hard parts come, sometimes you just need someone to talk to about where you are in your story; someone to help you look at the chapters of your life's book objectively and overcome the parts that hurt and or keep you from happiness and peace of mind.

Has your marriage lost the spark that it once had? Is the pain from your past interfering with your present or preventing you from the future of your dreams? Are you desperate to feel better? It’s not uncommon for stress to take a toll on individuals, but it can also wreak havoc on your relationships. I believe that it is possible to rebuild the love and trust that makes a thriving marriage. I love helping my clients feel hopeful again whether you’re meeting with your spouse or have chosen to individually work towards your goals.

You want people to think you have it all under control, but you’re struggling to meet the demands of life. You're juggling work, school, parenting, relationships, and more, all while trying to take care of yourself. It's normal to feel overwhelmed by it all and worry that you're not measuring up in every aspect of your life. Making decisions, setting boundaries, and finding a healthy work/life balance can all feel like huge challenges. To put it plainly, living with anxiety is exhausting. But this is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You're ready to quiet your mind. Most of all, you’re ready to take control of your life.
