Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

Are you struggling to maintain healthy relationships? Do you feel overwhelmed with life stressors? Do you find it difficult to focus on self-care? I work with highly motivated and high-achieving individuals and couples just like you to better manage and cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, life stressors, and other issues that may be holding you back from living the life you want. Together we can figure out what’s not working and implement strategies for change, growth, and healing. We will use an integrated, whole-person approach, focusing on mind, body, and spirit, and drawing from mindfulness and your own values to guide us.

I have always had a passion and a deep respect for humanity, for learning about others, for appreciating the differences and personal histories, and for discovering how individuals' values drive their own power to heal themselves. As a therapist, it is my privilege to be a mere facilitator of the discovery process. I look forward to aiding the change process in its many forms and in the time frame that you--the individual—desires and determines. With 15 years of experience in the field, I feel that I bring experience but also a fresh perspective of how to help.

I work with couples, individuals, adolescents and families covering a wide range of emotional, behavioral and relationship issues. I strive to provide a comfortable and supportive environment in which people feel safe to explore issues that keep them locked in destructive patterns. My work style is highly personalized and tailored to the individual needs of people to support insight and personal growth. I believe in a collaborative approach and relationship with my clients that preserves their right to self-determination and holds an unconditional positive regard for each person I encounter.

I love my job because it's not about me. It's about coming alongside you on your journey in life. It's about getting the right counseling fit for you, even if that means its not me. It means helping you sort through what's happening in your life. I work with individuals, couples, families, and teens who are experiencing life challenges of all kinds. Two areas of importance to me are couples in relationship distress and families who have a family member or child with a developmental disability. I have a child with Down Syndrome and a deep understanding of how disability can impact individuals and families.

Aloha! It is my desire to create a safe, warm & accepting space for all the individuals I work with. I believe that feelings of belonging & acceptance are the foundation of the growth we can achieve together. Understanding my clients' problems from a holistic perspective is important to me. As you share your unique story it is my goal to paint a more detailed picture of your problem within the context it has evolved & been maintained.

Whether you are coming to this page with years of experience in therapy or are adventuring into this for the first time, welcome. We are absolutely not wired to do life alone or come pre-loaded with all the skills and insights desired to manage the good, hard, and painful. Providing a space of gentleness and compassion, we can work together on painful past experiences in the family or otherwise, symptoms of anxiety or depression, sexual concerns, feelings of guilt or shame, identity concerns, challenges in religious/spiritual upbringing, or just overall feeling stuck.

I know that seeking help is not a comfortable space for many. I believe in the resiliency of every individual and appreciate the uniqueness of families. It is humbling to partner with you or someone you love as we address issues that cause distress and play out in different aspects of life. Our shortcomings are many, our strengths enormous, and our weaknesses reveal our humanity, regardless of life experiences, ethnicity, culture, age, religion, or sexual orientation. I am passionate about helping and supporting families and individuals find healing through approaches in my clinical training to help toward wholeness.

Many couples struggle with having differing backgrounds that create issues around communication. I help to create a new frame which fits for their unique relationship. Attraction can come from their compatibility of interpretive systems.

I prefer to work with adults and older adolescents struggling with addictions, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I have a vast amount of experience working in the field of trauma. Due to my experience working in community mental health, I also work well with those with intense mental health and substance abuse treatment needs. I have worked both inpatient and outpatient experiences, resulting in my flexibility to help stabilize in a crisis and to work with individuals at any level. A client who desires to accept partnership and engage in being open to change is the most ideal client.

Many of my clients enter therapy for the first time not knowing what to expect. As your therapist, I will explain the therapy process and paint a clear picture of where we are going. I work to provide an empathetic, safe environment for all of my clients, but I am especially skilled at helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transition & existential issues. My training also equips me to work with couples and families struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Some of these may include infidelity, parenting issues, and pre-marital counseling. I love helping couples connect who are struggling to do so.

I've been a social worker in Southern Indiana for nearly 40 years. I have experience with a wide variety of issues, including major mental illness, but now I'm mostly dealing with depression, anxiety, addictions, couples counseling and issues of aging. My work comes out of CBT and is focused on the here and now. My goal is for you to have more control regulating your emotions. Emotions have a lot of energy, it is time that energy gets used to help you rather than hurt you. I've always worked in Southern Indiana, which is where I'm from. I worked for 20 years at Indiana University CAPS before retiring to pursue private practice.

Being a teen girl is tough! Raising a teen girl can be even tougher. Anxiety, depression, identity issues, peer relations, academic stress, and outside pressures can leave teen girls needing increased support just as many are beginning to pull away from their parents to develop their own passions and purpose. Parents often find themselves feeling like an outsider as their teen daughters suddenly begin to turn to peers, friends, and social media for advice and guidance instead of mom or dad. This can lead to increased family conflict as parents and teens struggle to communicate with each other and find common ground.

I believe that everyone possesses tools to overcome any challenge in life. There are times when life has us feeling stuck and we need help finding the key to our tool box. With all the hurdles life throws, we can be left feeling hopeless, leaving us to forget tools that have helped through past obstacles. To help individuals and families overcome these life challenges, I use a strengths based approach and other evidenced-based approaches to help individuals and families reclaim their fortitude in life.
