I work primarily with adult individuals on issues related to OCD and anxiety. Do you have intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or sensations that are causing anxiety or other challenges in your life? They could be focused on health issues, other forms of harm to self or others, fears around identity and authenticity, social or other phobias, or simply feelings of things not being "just right." You might be distressed by taboo sexual thoughts or consumed with fears of contamination or disease. The possibilities are endless! But your suffering doesn't have to be.

All psychological issues are ultimately existential in origin, entailing a confrontation with death, loss, meaning, purpose and value. All that we do (knowingly or unknowingly) is dedicated to deciphering these daunting and irrepressible demands of existence. Few are successful in resolving or even clearly conceptualizing these existential issues and their minds inevitably descend into despair, depression and anxiety. Some seek to assuage their suffering with psychoactive substances (illicit and licit) and this leads only to addiction and abdication of autonomy over one's authentic self. My System offers a solution.

Hi prospective client, let’s figure out if this is a good fit. I work with clients who need support, a clearer understanding of themselves and their environment, and are ready for change. Clients struggling with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, PTSD, grief, schizophrenia, bipolar, and personality disorders, as well as relationships, career support, aging, and other life issues are great candidates for therapy with me. I see individual clients of any age, families, and couples (however if under the age of 15, parent/caregiver collaboration is required). I offer a kind, supportive approach, with plenty structure and self-empowerment.

No matter who you are or what your particular challenges are, we can all get to the point where we feel like we're drowning. Work can push us and make us feel inadequate or overworked. Our relationships can make us doubt our value or our commitment. Even our family members who are supposed to be our main support can turn out to be a source of major stress. Tell me your individual story and struggles so that we can work together to find your peace and calm. Sometimes our burdens can get so heavy that even trying to picture our goals is difficult. Let's try to face some this fog so we can see our dreams clearer.

Hi, I’m Earl Yarington, a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), and adjunct instructor at Indiana University East. I hold a PhD in Literature and Criticism with a focus on feminism, women writers, and writing composition. My academic work spans topics including nineteenth-century popular women writers, feminism, masculinity, digital media, sexual identities, and the intersections of childhood and sexuality. This scholarly background enhances my therapeutic work, particularly in helping clients navigate identity, self-expression, and the complexities of socially sensitive topics.

There are times when life feels more significant and almost bigger than us. This experience can be wonderful when filled with love, gratitude, & connection. However, the pendulum swings both ways, and sometimes, we can feel overwhelmed, helpless, and angry. Most of us struggle to know what our needs are, let alone how to meet them. Counseling is an avenue that creates a space to get to know yourself and your needs and learn how to make the incremental life adjustments to meet them. I can help you learn how to deal with hard things and cultivate a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

Beginning therapy can mean different things to different people, but it is an action of courage, hope, self- care, and self-determination. You might or might not have been to a therapist before. If this is your first experience with therapy, you might even feel a bit nervous or apprehensive and I am here to say that’s normal. Through our work together, you will be validated and can begin to feel more at home within yourself.

As children, we are learning from interactions with our parents who we are and how to fit into the world around us. After we leave home, we become our own parents as we continue to learn about ourselves and how to find our own place in life. And when we have families of our own, we are now parents both for our children and for ourselves, as we continue to understand more about who we are. I provide a warm, empathic and accepting environment where you can explore your current life challenges, as well as address past issues that impact your everyday life.

Hi. How are you coping? Life keeps changing so drastically. It doesn't seem real. So many existential questions come to mind, for instance: how will I stay safe?; who's in charge?; what does the future hold? It makes sense that we feel sad, worried or even out of control. This is normal under the circumstances. What gives you joy and peace? What about: sticking to the facts; not panicking; limiting the news; laughter; hobbies; spirituality; loving family, friends and pets to the fullest? Talking to a counselor can also help. I'm available for in-person and virtual sessions. Virtual is convenient, safe and insurance covers it.

Do you have concerns about your ability to cope with anger, anxiety, career transitions, and/or intimacy and interpersonal issues? Are you feeling disconnected? Often, we can find ourselves in a “life loop” that can make us feel like we’re on autopilot. Sometimes those feelings of anger, anxiety, and disconnection can feel so strong that we feel isolated and alone. But the truth is that you are not alone and do not have to navigate those issues by yourself. You can free yourself of your issues! You can live the life that you desire!

I continue to derive immense satisfaction from becoming a psychologist and exploring many paths and points of view about the nature of "reality", personally in my own work on myself and with others in psychotherapy (from physical/behavioral/external levels to non-physical/subjective/internal levels). People who have participated in psychotherapy with me often describe deriving value from increased awareness, insight and understanding about their past and present circumstances, both internal and external. These results have led to resolving external behavioral issues and increasing their level of internal satisfaction about their life experiences.
