Trauma Focused Therapists in Indianapolis, IN
I have helped many people from ages 12 to 80+ 'weather a personal crisis' regardless of circumstances; in addition, I have acquired special,training in working with returning military personnel in coping with their re-entry issues as well as helping them take 'next steps'. I am also an expert in career 'direction' as well as 'redirection', and regardless of age, I seek those people as clients who desire to become or retain an 'open mind'! I encourage 'self-esteem' as a precious commodity and promote one's own goals and personal values as their keys to happiness.

Many clients I work with feel misunderstood, overwhelmed, alienated, lonely, guilty, and disconnected. They may be stuck in patterns that no longer serve them and struggle with understanding the "why" behind their thoughts, feelings, and actions. Some of my clients come to therapy due to circumstances outside of their control, such as being parent-referred or court-ordered. These clients may feel guarded, skeptical, and disengaged. Regardless of referral source, some common goals are better self-understanding, increased emotional awareness, and greater control over their responses.

You might feel alone in this struggle but you don’t have to be. My work, which has been shaped by my own experiences of suffering and clinical training, is more than a career, it is a calling. I help people move from simply surviving to living with intention, calm, and confidence. I work with those struggling with OCD, anxiety, PTSD, or depression. I also have a background in working with parents who are experiencing challenging situations. Whenever I work with children, I work with the caregivers as well in order to improve family unity and create lasting change.

CLARITY, PEACE of MIND, CONFIDENCE, JOY and a SKILL SET by which to create and sustain a happier, healthier life, sound good? Let's face it, despite our best efforts life gets crazy at times. We can ride the slow gradual wave of disconnectedness until one day we wake up wondering "How the heck did I get here?!" Without warning we find ourselves in what I call an "uncomfortable comfortable." This turbulence is a result of life unfolding in ways we never imagined. Situations we've tried our best to "deal with" because "that's just life."
