Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Indianapolis, IN
Most of your feelings, your intrusive thoughts, and your reactive behaviors are not within your control. You - like many others - can spend so much time and energy fighting the present patterns of your body and mind. You do this because maybe you feel shame for how these symptoms present themselves, you are afraid of how these symptoms may impact your life, or both of these reasons plus more. This attempt to control the uncontrollable is an endless and exhausting fight. As you redirect your energy to becoming aware how your brain and body are presently reacting and accepting these patterns as they present themselves to you today,

Hello! I'm Susan Pittman, "Sue" LCSW and I'm looking forward to working with you! Empowering people to make meaningful change in their lives has always been my passion. I offer a wide range of clinical skills developed over the past 30 years in the social services field working with adults, and seniors. I have 8 years practicing as a licensed clinical therapist.

Welcome! My name is Wesley or Wes if you prefer. I generally take a conversational and genuine approach to therapy so you can be sarcastic or use whatever expletives you want in my office, as long as you are respectful. I generally find the people that respond best to my style of therapy are either curious or have an open mind. My general philosophy behind therapy is that I want to work myself out of a job and at some point you will graduate from therapy. If you have experienced a major life transition, crossroads in your marriage or just generally need/want to unpack some shit, feel free to reach out!

Hello! I have enjoyed working as a licensed clinical social worker and clinical addictions counselor for over 20 years. I have a wide range of skills that include, but are not limited to, improving coping skills, stress management, relationship enhancement and managing moods. In addition to these interests, my passion includes working with children, adolescents and their families. I use play and sand tray therapy to compliment the therapy process, allowing children to express themselves, while including the caregivers and siblings, to help the entire family reach their goals.

I believe health and wellbeing are essential to a quality life. When we don't feel well it's hard to meet our goals. Counseling can help restore harmony to your routine. I am grateful that I can share this space with my clients and hope you get that experience, too.

Are you feeling distressed and looking for a change? My name is Katherine and I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to providing a safe space for my clients to realize peace and happiness. I have a lot of experience working in the mental health field - from corrections to private practice, and I’ve learned through service that regardless of your history, change is possible.

I decided that I wanted to give back and help my own community so here I am. I know all too well how it feels to grow up in "two different worlds" and feeling like I didn't belong in either (Indian or American). I also understand how it feels to be a female in the South Asian community. I recognize the pressures, stressors, competitiveness and expectations that our culture brings. As well as the guilt and shame one experiences to constantly please our families and others and always feel like "you are not enough" or "have to be perfect."

Desiring healthier relationships? I'm an integrative psychotherapist working within a relational lens.

This is a tailored approach that helps to foster deep, lasting change in how a person experiences themselves and others.

I specialize in trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety disorders, OCD, substance misuse, addiction, relationship issues, grief, workplace burnout, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.
You already know something isn't working. Maybe trauma from years ago still showing up, or maybe getting out of bed feels like a negotiation every morning. Maybe it's the cycle breaking a pattern, feeling hopeful, watching it creep back, and wondering if change is possible for you. It is, and you don't have to figure it out alone.
I work with people tired of just coping. People who've been in survival mode so long they've forgotten what living feels like. Empathy is my foundation, and my approach is solution-focused because you deserve more than a weekly space to unpack pain without building a way through it.

My ideal client is someone seeking self-discovery and healing, struggling with issues like anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, or low self-esteem. They feel disconnected from their true selves and need support to find balance and clarity. Their goal is to live a life that feels authentic and aligned with their values, overcoming past wounds and developing healthy emotional habits. They want therapy to be a transformative space where they can grow, heal, and ultimately lead a fulfilling life.

Something in your life feels unresolved— problems in your relationship, lack of intimacy, sexuality, sexual dysfunction, trauma, or patterns that continue repeating despite your efforts to change them.
