Therapists in Plymouth, IN

I am a licensed mental health counselor, with a background in clinical addictions, who is passionate about helping clients achieve personal and professional success. My approach to counseling includes traditional tools such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and practical strategies like mindfulness and emotional freedom techniques. I utilize values clarification to explore the challenges that come with lifestyle transitions, interpersonal relationships and personal development. I enjoy working doctoral students and rising student affairs leaders motivated to get the best out of life.

I enjoy supporting people in their quest to improve their relationships and their lives. I counsel children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. People's happiness, or lack thereof, is often a direct result of the quality of their relationships. Therapy can help to identify the ways in which we are contributing to poor relationships and take steps to change! Therapy can also help to clarify if a relationship can be improved and is worth salvaging.

Are you feeling “stressed out” and overwhelmed, or concerned that your relationship may be on “life support”? Are you struggling to overcome a history of physical, emotional, or sexual trauma? Have alcohol and/or drugs become a means of coping with anxiety, depression, grief, or the stressors of daily life? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you have made the right choice by being here. I know this is difficult. You’ve likely been debating seeking help for months, if not years.

The need for a space to heal and grow is even greater, as we have all experienced unprecedented loss, pain, and isolation. As we reach the light at the end of the tunnel, there is still uncertainty as to the long-term effects of what we have endured. No one should have to face it alone.

Do you sometimes feel like your nervous system is failing you? Do you have emotional (or physical) symptoms that you suspect are rooted in some kind of shock, ongoing conflict, or trauma? Do you feel like you are constantly in "fight or flight" mode and wonder if you will ever be able to truly rest? Many of my clients have sought help from MDs, and even alternative health practitioners, only to discover the source of their pain and exhaustion was untreated trauma. But I would love to tell you there is hope: there is treatment for shock and trauma.

Prior to working full time in clinical therapy, Stephen served almost 20 years as a pastor. During that time, he dedicated a significant portion of his ministry to counseling those struggling with various emotional, spiritual, and relational issues. Since then, Stephen has worked in both private practice and community mental health settings. He has teamed with clients from all age groups and diverse backgrounds to help them overcome life struggles, process through mental health concerns, and manage relationships and daily functioning. Trauma has increasingly been an area of focus for Stephen.

My most influential experience includes working with individuals and groups and assuring that their needs have been addressed with case management, counseling, resources, and referrals. I have not only strived to provide services for my clients but their families as well. I have experience with providing group and individual interventions. I have been exposed to individuals who have been faced with behavioral and mental health issues, mental disability, crisis intervention, homelessness, and substance abuse etc. I have provided services for individuals in various stages of development and vast populations.

I work primarily with adults looking to find meaning in their life by reflecting upon daily challenges and gaining insight into their experiences. I offer a supportive and nonjudgmental atmosphere and prioritize building a trusting therapeutic relationship with the individuals I work with. Whether you are experiencing chronic mental illness or going through a transient period of distress, I provide a safe space to address your concerns. My approach to therapy is integrative and individualized to each person's unique story and life goals. I believe in empowering individuals to produce sought after change in their life.

Life can be difficult to deal with. Issues from our past or on-going relationship problems can cause us considerable stress. Issues of shame and guilt can make us to feel depressed and anxious and keep us from living to our fullest potential. If you relate to this, I would like the opportunity to help and empower you and/or your family to overcome these obstacles.
