Therapists Beginning With G in Indiana

I work with children, teens, and young adults struggling with a variety of mental health issues. I specifically specialize in pre-teen/teen. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, family discord, academic issues, suicidal ideation, and more. With therapy, I recognize that each person come to counseling for their own unique reasons/needs. With this, I aim to meet people where they're at and work through their problems every step so they can reach the goals that they have for themselves or their families.

Every client has unique needs and strengths, and their treatment plan should be like no one else's. Together we choose from a spectrum of techniques--cognitive/behavioral, family or couples therapy, hypnotherapy, regression, insight-oriented--to create a plan specialized for you. Whether it's anxiety, depression, transgender or sexuality issues, PTSD, dissociation, trauma, relationship problems, or religious abuse, we work together toward your healing. We are ready to help you manage pain, stop bad habits, end smoking, or prepare for surgery. Or request an in-depth psychological evaluation to explore your strengths and needs.

I work to help individual, couples, and families better understand their difficulties and identify a plan and steps to achieve their goals.

Are you on the road of old ways and struggling to open new doors? Let this be the first new door you open. I invite you to pull up a chair to chat and give yourself permission to focus on yourself and your needs. This may be something you do regularly or something you are utterly uncomfortable with due to its unfamiliarity. Change. That's what this is all about. Whether it's us, our situation, our relationships, or our reactions. Something has to change, am I right? The only difference between where we are and where we want to be is the step we have yet to take. Here's that first step, ready to take it?

I am passionate about working with individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other neurodevelopmental disabilities and supporting their families as they navigate home, school, and community. I believe strongly that our goal should never be to "cure" the individual with autism or make them fit the world but rather to help them be their most successful self by providing education, support, and accommodations as necessary. I also believe that a one-size-fits-all approach does not work, and each individual and family should be provided with supports that are tailored to them and are evaluated regularly as they grow and develop.

I offer individual therapy to children, adolescents and adults and have extensive experience treating trauma, anxiety, depression, phase of life, and, self-awareness. My goal is to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space for clients to be heard, encouraged, and to process life’s struggles and successes.

Especially in times of crisis or transition, when the things we look to for our identity or sense of self are in flux or lost, we can feel lost ourselves. We wonder who we are, what we’re doing, and where we’re going. Our minds get foggy, we feel stuck and aimless, and we’re often overwhelmed by our thoughts. We get caught up in our emotions and forget what grounds and centers us.

To the outside world, your life looks great. But behind the forced smiles and fake selfies, something is wrong, and it has been for a while. Let's get real for a minute. Chances are you probably feel like there's no hope left. And if we're being honest, looking for help might just be your last ditch effort before giving up and throwing in the towel. Whether your life is a constant mess and everything is falling apart, or because you aren't sure where else to turn, you've come to the right place.

I have experience helping children, adolescents, and adults with issues including depression, anxiety, adjustment and marriage/relationship issues. I am well versed in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).

I have the benefit of being both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an ordained minister, both in the state of Indiana. My caring and compassionate spirit helps me see each client in a similar and relational manner.

It is not a coincidence that you are reading this right now. If you are, it is likely that you are deciphering whether or not to take the first step in reaching out for additional support. I commend you for taking the very first step towards change and control over your life. I believe each individual is unique; therefore, I use an integrative approach in session to best suit your personal needs. I am here to work with you in an affirmative, empathic, non-judgmental, and empowering space. You are not alone. You deserve to be heard.

Busy schedules, kids, work, family stress and complicated relationships can make us feel out of control. We can lose focus on the important things in life and can be overtaken by our commitments. I know what it’s like to struggle in life. I understand feeling hurt and pain while joy and peace seem out of reach. Finding a good fit with an experienced therapist is important. I offer a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental space for healing and moving forward in life.
