Spirituality Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

"I am a trusted and compassionate professional who enjoys helping others to be creative in resolving complex issues. Regarded as a specialist in mental health and consultation, I provide brief, solution-focused therapy and psycho-dynamic work. I also provide consultation, training, and workshops for staff, agencies and groups. As a former mental health consultant with the NFL, I am very effective in helping clients, athletes and coaches to attain desired goals and success. From clients with chronic illnesses to clients seeking to explore spirituality and faith - I work to help increase a sense of purpose, effectiveness, calm and wellness."

I enjoy working with clients who come to me in crisis with some awareness that their existing coping resources and skills have been overwhelmed to the point they need some help to grow through the situation. Though it typically begins concretely with stress and conflict management, this work often deepens into fruitful reexamination of personal values, family dynamics, problematic relationship patterns, and existential or spiritual themes. I see individual problems as often having been forged in the crucible of one's family of origin, which has often severely limited one's ability to respond well to all of life's demands.

I work with individuals who are motivated toward greater health and well-being. This includes those who struggle with long-term emotional distress, and those wanting to change unhealthy patterns in their life. Together we will explore how past events can contribute to feelings of distress and relationship difficulties today. As you develop new insight and understanding about yourself through therapy, you may find more balance in mind, body and spirit, and a greater sense of freedom.
