Therapists in Mishawaka, IN

The process of counseling is meant to be a journey of exploration, understanding, and acceptance. I firmly believe in walking side-by-side in an authentic way with clients through both their suffering and their successes. Each person is absolutely unique and deserves unconditional positive regard in their therapy session, and to not feel judged or evaluated. My approach takes into account the whole, holistic, and unique person that you are. It is important to be more than a diagnosis, and to confront the deeper issues facing us.

I am able to SERVE the ENTIRE state of INDIANA via ONLINE platforms, PHONE calls, and TEXT messages. I am a solution focused therapist with 5 years of experience working with individuals and families to help them reach their goals. I get to know my clients and incorporate meaningful activities into our therapeutic sessions to help them work through the issues that are causing them disruption in their lives. I know that life can be difficult due to many different issues. Whatever the issue is, I am happy to work with my clients to help them figure out how to overcome it.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with a variety of ages and challenges. Whether you are working to heal from trauma, experiencing mental health struggles (like depression, anxiety, or PTSD), sorting out relationship issues, exploring yourself, or wanting to make a positive change- I am here to provide support in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Therapy can be helpful in many ways and is highly individualized- there is no "one size fits all" approach; I try to walk alongside you to help you reach your goals and work on what is important to you because you are the expert on you/your family!

Maybe this is your first time pursuing counseling or you just haven’t met the right counselor who “gets you.” Do you experience an imbalance between work and personal life? My goal is to create a space where you can be your authentic self without judgment or fear. I take a client-centered approach ensuring that your unique needs and goals take the spotlight. I work with clients who may be experiencing any of the following: Racing thoughts, burn-out, lack of motivation, grief & loss, life transitions, interpersonal relationship issues, decision making struggles, and general feelings of overwhelm.

This is the first step on a journey of self discovery and change for a better tomorrow. Let me take this journey with you by walking beside you, and meeting you right where you are. A journey of a lifetime has countless steps, it is what we do with those steps in this moment that matter. The past is behind us, the future in front of us, and this precious moment all around us. Working together you and I will embrace this moment by engaging in mindfulness, meditation, and by starting with the most important piece-you!

I enjoy working with children, families, and couples. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, self-esteem, addictions, and grief. I have a particular interest in working with clients who are processing and healing from all forms of trauma. Therapy is a collaborative process and I love to see clients gain new perspectives, decrease symptoms, and increase personal strengths to have a more meaningful life.

Hello! My name is Cassandra Mielcarek and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate in Northern Indiana. Most know me by my short name- Cassie. I graduated from Northcentral University in 2019. Prior to my graduate program, I obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice from Indiana State University, with minors in Music and Psychology. While I have many passions, I am so thankful for the path that brought me where I am, and I cannot wait to help you on your therapy journey!

If you’re looking for practical, affirming, and person-centered support, you’ve found the right page. I’m here to help you explore your goals and take intentional, logical, and manageable steps toward the life you'd like to see for yourself. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, existential dread, grief, trauma, or just trying to figure yourself out or find your way in this world, I am here to be a consistent and reliable presence of support, compassion, and empowerment to support you in processing through your experiences and overcoming any obstacles you face.

I offer services for both mental health and addiction issues. I believe in finding hope and love in all the darkest places. Sometimes we encounter overwhelming circumstances on our journey called “life.” I am here to help those who feel lost, broken, and hopeless when all other avenues seem bleak. I believe that there is no “ONE” answer that fits all, therefore I will work with you on your journey to find the perfect balance of peace and reality. I will meet you on your path and we can work together to find a way back to a healthier and happier lifestyle. Interests are couples, addiction, and holistic practices.

Feeling lost in this busy world? Not feeling yourself and needing help in exploring this? Therapy is not just for individuals with trauma, chronic mental health, or substance use difficulties. Stress can manifest itself in many different ways (poor sleep, isolation, irritability). Clients may not know what their initial goals are but this is something we can work on together. Stuck in not knowing what you want out of therapy? Thorough intakes allow us to identify potential problem areas and develop a plan to address whatever is most important to you.

As you search for a counselor, the most important thing is to find someone who can help you with the current obstacles you are facing. You deserve someone who is competent, accepting, and compassionate. I am committed to walking alongside you as you deal with life’s difficulties and struggles. I assist in bringing clarity and focus while working with you toward meeting your goals.

In an ever-changing world, do you feel overwhelmed, aggravated, or fearful? You want someone to talk to, but you don’t know who you could trust with knowing about your struggles. Areas of your life are being negatively impacted, and you need somebody to listen to what you've been thinking and feeling. Yet, you feel alone. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, relational issues, overwhelm, or past hurts, it is important to know you don’t have to be alone in this journey. I enjoy helping clients achieve goals, overcome struggles, and live a more fulfilling life. If you'd like more info, reach out today for a free consultation!
