Therapists in South Bend, IN

Hello, I am a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana. Although I have been employed in a variety of social work positions over the years, doing clinical work with individuals, couples, and families has always been my passion. I believe strongly that we have the power to illuminate and strengthen our own lives when we nurture ourselves and allow others to nurture us. My own goals for you, as a client, are to empower, educate, and maintain the highest therapeutic standard of care, and above all, to instill a sense of hopefulness within you no matter the circumstances.

I treat individuals, couples, and families within the context of their systems. A systemic approach to therapy means viewing your challenges within the context of school, work, medical concerns, marriage, family, etc. I believe that being a healthy person means having good boundaries in your biological, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual dimensions of life.

I believe growth and healing are always possible. I support clients in finding their way. I think learning to live a peaceful life in our current fast paced, speed of light world is possible, and even vital to one's well-being.

Are you overwhelmed due to a recent life transition, having trouble managing stress, or maybe you have found yourself anxious and unable to cope? I am here to offer you support. Therapy is a process of growth and self discovery. In our sessions we will identify your goals and strengths, and work together to understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while developing skills and insight to feel like you are present and living freely.

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.

Relational, Trauma, and Sex therapy are my primary focus. Individuals, families, and couples who desire to repair conflicts, reduce abusive (sexual, spiritual, emotional, and physical) or negative patterns, or heal trauma. In 2021 I released my passion project thebindpodcast.com in hopes of providing yet another outlet for people in all walks of life to begin the awesome work of personal and relational growth. I invite you to visit my podcast site and get acclimated with who I am as a human and a clinician.

I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths to overcome the things in life that challenge you. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to a healthy balance.

I am excited to work with individuals from all walks of life. I have a particular interest in working with children and families. I value the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and the impact these have on our lives. I also advocate the importance of implementing boundaries in one’s life in order to empower the client.

Presence and accompaniment matter. We can more easily connect to our true self and touch emotional distress in the presence of another's settled nervous system. Neurobiology and mindfulness science has proven that the human brain can be distraught while simultaneously observing the self with compassion. The ability to be both experiencing and holding the experience is the key to maintaining calm when facing challenges. Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxiety, anger, depression, or find yourself reacting in ways that leave you feeling alone and hurt, we can come to be with all of it with gentle awareness and respect.

I work with a wide variety of emotional and behavioral issues, providing services that include therapy for depression, anxiety, parenting issues, adoption issues, eating disorders, etc. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach taylored to each of my client's individual needs to help them attain their desired personal goals. I have over 25 years of experience in various areas of the mental health field. I work with all ages and particularly enjoy working with teens and their families. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (a shorter term therapy which has been proven to be effective).

*Limited Availability* You've been wondering about therapy, but find reasons that keep getting in the way of reaching out. Sometimes it feels hopeless, or wonder if YOU might be hopeless. You might ask what's the point? Nothing is working. You've tried to talk to people in your life, but you don't want to burden them and fear they wouldn't understand; or worse- they could judge you. You try to make up for it but always seem to fall short, a constant feeling of disappointment. Nothing's enough and you wonder, "Am I enough?" You're curious; therapy could help. You don't want to keep repeating the same patterns; or feel stuck anymore.
