Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

Life is hard and it doesn't always let us catch our breath before the next thing comes. Perhaps you need some help finding a solution for the next step or maybe you just need someone to listen to you and show some empathy. Sometimes you don't understand why you get so angry, irritable, or emotional about the small inconveniences that come up in life and maybe you'd like to be more mindful and in control of your emotions/reactions. Whether it be someone to listen to you, someone to find a solution with, or just to get back control of your life so you can be the expert of it, I can help.

Congratulations for seeking therapy! I am taking referrals and can do so quickly. Many people feel reluctant to seek therapy because of the assumption that you should be able to deal with all problems yourself. Most people experience improvement in mood and anxiety problems as they work with a therapist. I believe I am easy to talk to and listen carefully. I also have over 40 years of experience and have developed skills in a variety of problem areas. If you see me and we establish a plan, you will be in the driver's seat as far as how much you need and how long you need it. AND YES - I offer weekend and evening appointments.

Everybody can benefit from having support in their life, at times we may need it more. I have a Doctorate in Counseling and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Addictions Counselor, and Pastoral Counselor. I have worked in the counseling field for 25 years.I work at Buckingham and Associates in Indianapolis. I enjoy working with adults, couples, families, and teens. I help my clients grow, change, improve, and overcome issues in their lives. I treat Addictions, ADHD, Anxiety, Behavioral Problems, Christian Counseling, Couple Issues, Depression, Divorce,Gambling Problems, Marital Issues, and Grief and Loss Issues.

Let me help you overcome the challenges of daily living. My name is Scott, and my past experience has taught me that helping one resolve childhood trauma, often a root cause for many mental health issues, is as rewarding an experience for a therapist as it is for a patient. I also enjoy helping couples overcome marital issues, as well as working with parents on how to better approach their children. Helping parents is something I enjoy. I can work through many different modalities to help you in areas of depression, anxiety, and other disorders. I have worked in counseling for nearly 30 years helping others at stages of life.

I am enthusiastic about good mental health. I enjoy helping others live their best lives by improving their health and relational skills. I am licensed as a Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Addictions Counselor.

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!
