**I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME** Your family has experienced a major stressor-separation/divorce, loss or trauma that has impacted your lives. Life feels out of control and scary. Your young child is having difficulty sleeping, is worried and struggling in school. Your tween is sad and is acting out. Your teen is angry and doesn't seem to care about anything anymore. You're beginning to wonder if you have what it takes to help your family heal. It's getting hard to manage your emotions and provide comfort to your child/teen. You've tried it on your own...it's time to let someone help.

Hello. Thank you for inquiring about counseling services. I look forward to hearing from you. I provide services for individuals, couples, and families, ages ranging from preteen (12) - adulthood. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, trauma, stress, depression, and relationship issues. I utilize traditional talk therapy, EMDR, TCM method, and Rapid Resolution Therapy. My approach is strength based, person centered where the therapeutic relationship is key, along with a positive and supportive environment.

As the parent of a struggling tween, teen, or young adult do you sometimes wonder what you can do to help them feel better? I have a passion for working with pre-teens, teens, young adults, and their families struggling with a wide variety of issues. My areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity issues, and relationships.

I offer a caring and healing place for children and families to find solutions and hope. In practice for over 30 years, I offer unique, highly effective horse-assisted therapy in Milton, FL, specializing in adolescent & preteen girls and women. Our property connects to many trails in the Blackwater Forest where patients can experience amazing, healing natural beauty and peace. I also see children, families, and couples in my office in Gulf Breeze. I offer the resources & support needed to help your child and family find happiness, confidence, and success.

Are you looking for someone kind, warm, and easy to talk to? My name is Jennifer Linarello and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker skilled in helping clients deal with big life changes, anxiety, depression, trauma and much more. I see clients of all ages ranging from adolescents to seniors. Before I became a therapist, I worked as an elementary school teacher, so I have a strong understanding of how early development and family dynamics relate to mental health. Now, I've been working in mental health for over 22 years and I’ve helped countless clients make new connections and achieve major breakthroughs.

Neurofeedback changed my family's life. Having observed first hand this life changing therapy, I felt convicted to make this available in Indiana. There is no reason for most to suffer from insomnia, anxiety, depression, ADHD, pain, migraines or a host of other ailments. Most are not inherently or irrevocably flawed. Instead, many of the problems that plague us are a case of "operator error". INDY Neurofeedback offers hope for true health - not a "bandage" with potentially harmful side effects or coping skills. How wonderful, that what amounts to exercises for the brain can permanently effect such change!"

"That which is most personal, is most universal." (Henri Nouwen) You are not alone and you do not have to figure it out on your own.

I approach each client with compassion, grace, and truth. I would welcome an opportunity to help facilitate positive changes for you through a supportive collaborative therapeutic relationship. My focus is on helping individuals, couples, and adolescents discover their personal strengths and develop coping skills that are essential in navigating the challenges of life. I incorporate faith into my counseling when it is mutually important to those I am counseling.

Life can be difficult. Counseling shouldn’t be. When you’re struggling to cope with the challenges in your life, starting therapy is a courageous step toward change. In a complex world, we believe in straightforward, compassionate support. If you are feeling out of balance or in distress, it can feel defeating to reach out for help and be met with unreturned calls, waitlists, or therapists who are not taking new clients. Not addressing your issues with a professional can often lead to an increase of symptoms while you wait for your first appointment. We believe that you shouldn’t have to go through this alone.

I specialize in the treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders in children and adults. I am certified in Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD by the Cognitive Behavior Institute.

I also have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for anxiety disorders in children and I involve parents in therapy. My approach is active allowing clients to apply interventions that work for years to come. My sub-specialty is seeing adults and children with anxiety and ADHD.

Paul is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering in-person and virtual therapy to adolescents and adults. He has 8 years of experience providing treatment to individuals and their families across community and hospital settings.

Congratulations! You have taken the first step towards getting the treatment you deserve. I am eager to hear your story, walk with you through your journey by showing compassion and emotional support along the way. In my solo private practice I start where the client is. I approach treatment with various therapeutic approaches each uniquely designed for each client. Please check my website for more information! I hope to hear from you!

I'm passionate about serving communities of people who have been underserved, and possibly harmed, by the fields of counseling and psychology in the past including: the LGBTQ+ population, those with non-traditional relationship structures such as polyamory, the kink community, and neurodivergent individuals. I strive to make therapy a comfortable and safe environment for people of all cultures, gender expressions, and sexual orientations. I am trauma-informed, sex and kink- positive, and body-neutral. I value social justice and hold anti-racist, disability-informed, feminist values, that I carry through my work.

I specialize in helping people of all ages in managing the symptoms of trauma, stress, depression, anxiety, neurodiversity, disordered eating, body image, and more. I am particularly keen on working with people interested in spirtual wellness. I serve all ages, but especially kids to young adults and older adults. I am passionate about working with veterans, LGBTQIA folx, and culturally diverse peoples. I bring warmth, positivity,  kindness, and compassion to my work. I have the utmost regard for each client's unique life story, personality, and goals. I aspire to make you feel seen, heard, and valued as the individual that you are.

Most of your feelings, your intrusive thoughts, and your reactive behaviors are not within your control. You - like many others - can spend so much time and energy fighting the present patterns of your body and mind. You do this because maybe you feel shame for how these symptoms present themselves, you are afraid of how these symptoms may impact your life, or both of these reasons plus more. This attempt to control the uncontrollable is an endless and exhausting fight. As you redirect your energy to becoming aware how your brain and body are presently reacting and accepting these patterns as they present themselves to you today,

I have a lot of experience helping people more effectively cope with major life adjustments due to stress, loss, transition, medical diagnoses, or trauma. Helping clients use their strengths and develop new ones to create acceptance, health and resilience is my focus. I am board certified in psychopharmacology, so I can also advise a client about maintaining or restoring wellness with medications.

Are you someone who struggles with anxiety, depression, self-doubt and negative thoughts? Do you sometimes feel like giving up and lack motivation or support? We all deal with daily life struggles and sometimes it becomes overwhelming. Having someone meet you where you are on your healing journey by helping you identify coping skills as well as assisting you with identifying your triggers and behaviors is important during times when you are unable to identify these things on your own.

My practice focuses on teenagers and young adults who struggle with anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, panic and OCD. Our initial meeting will include a phone consultation where I will work to understand what is bringing you to therapy at this time. I am currently seeing clients both in-person and virtually. My office is conveniently located in downtown Bloomington within walking distance of Indiana University.
