Therapists Beginning With Z in Indiana

My style is down-to-earth, direct, and personal. This type of therapy aims to change both our outward struggles and behaviors that can seem baffling and distressing while understanding the issues that underlie them. These deeper forces - hidden from view and rooted in our past and early relationships - can result in the greatest difficulty, and cause us to feel stuck, confused, empty, or out of control. Having the involvement and perspective of another person can help alleviate pain, shift old patterns, recover from difficulties, and lead to lasting change.

I specialize in conducting therapy with adults having mental health, legal, substance abuse, interpersonal, educational, medical, career, and relationship problems. I help individuals change unhelpful thinking patterns by recognizing inflexible demands they place on themselves, the world, and others. My therapeutic style helps individuals learn how to dispute beliefs causing negative emotional and behavioral consequences. Clients learn they have the ability to change and control their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, with the underlying goal of helping the client become his or her own therapist.

Current availability is morning/early afternoon only. I believe that mental health is an important part of overall health and happiness. Each person has the ability to commit to and foster positive change in their lives. I always strive to work with each client as an individual, fostering their strengths and building healthy coping skills, insight, and empowering courage for change.

People come to therapy when they have unresolved issues, problems making decisions, feel their life/feelings have become overwhelming. These issues may be associated with any number of things such as; the Covid-19, relationships, employment, infertility, college, medical problems, or grief and loss. People in society today are seeking support, information, guidance, self-knowledge. Therapy can be a useful tool that can help with a range of issues.

Mental health has maintained a negative stigma over the years, but as time has passed, it has fortunately become more openly discussed. How often have you questioned the way you have reacted to someone/thing? How often do you question whether or not you are "normal" due to the different feelings you are having? Mental health is just as important as physical health, and it is so important to find someone to support you through that growing process. Therapy is essential! Having a therapist gives you "your person" in which you can feel safe to talk about whatever is in your mind, and to normalize the overall healing process.

Are you looking for someone to help you make sense of the changes and challenges life brings? I believe every individual holds the key to the solution that is right for them. Empowering individuals to let go of self-criticism, create realistic expectations, and remove the barriers that are keeping them stuck is a process I believe in.
