Teletherapy for Carmel, IN

Investing time to know my clients is essential to me as we are all impacted by family, social, cultural, and economical factors. I feel it is important that clients are given a safe space to share their stories. ​I have worked with children, teens, married couples, parents, and adults with various life situations, including people experiencing homelessness and addiction. I also have a history of working with individuals involved in ministry settings. I am a practical strategist for supporting people through life’s difficulties. As a heartfelt listener I love to help people find hope when they otherwise feel stuck.

I believe that in order to be happy and healthy, we must nourish the whole person. As you begin your journey towards healing, I recognize the great courage it takes to seek help. My goal is to help you discover your true potential and form healthy relationships along the way. I strongly believe that each of us holds the power to change and create the life that we desire. You may feel stuck, not know exactly where to go for help, who the best person would be to talk to, or what to expect from therapy. These are normal questions and concerns. I want to assure you...You are at the right place!

Life can feel overwhelming and difficult to navigate at times. The thoughts that consume your day, feeling hopeless that the pain will never go away, and the uncertainty of how to transition through this period can make you feel stuck. My goal is to help you gain insight and awareness along with learn new strategies and coping skills to navigate through these difficult times. I also understand how important it is to provide an environment where you feel heard, supported, and understood in order to facilitate these changes and feel confident in applying these techniques within your life.

Do you often find yourself a victim to life circumstance, stuck repeating patterns, unable to move forward? I'd like to meet with you. My name is Leslie. I hold a Masters and a Ph.D. in counseling psychology and have been licensed as a mental health or professional counselor (LMHC) since 1994. Over the past 25 years, I have worked as an individual counselor with college-aged students and adults in clinical, private practice, and non-profit settings. I also have past experience working as an Indiana University (Indianapolis) associate professor in their undergraduate and graduate counseling and psychology programs.

Are you experiencing panic attacks, social anxiety or excessive worry? Are you having a hard time falling asleep, or are worries keeping you up all night? Perhaps you are stuck in the cycle of perfectionism, where no matter what you do, it never feels like you are good enough? If these questions are speaking to you, I am so glad you have reached out for help. Anxiety and perfectionism can be truly painful and debilitating. They can impact your ability to love and accept yourself, enjoy fulfilling relationships, reach your potential, get tasks done, or simply feel able to relax and enjoy life.

Sometimes life can be very difficult to manage and cope and it can be a challenge to find someone who will really listen or know what to do to help. Reaching out to a therapist is a courageous choice and I highly value and care for each client that I counsel. Your story and struggles are important and it is my high privilege that you would trust me in sharing your personal story. Stylistically, I am a present, caring and thoughtful therapist that help clients gain empowerment, containment and goal-setting using effective evidenced-based tools. I am also EMDR Certified to work with clients who have experienced trauma.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges? As a compassionate therapist with over 10 years of experience, I’m here to provide you with a safe and cozy space to share your story and work towards a more peaceful and fulfilling life. My expertise lies in helping minority and immigrant individuals and families who are dealing with grief and trauma, as well as young women and mothers who are struggling with identity issues, depression and anxiety.

I realize choosing a therapist can seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be an anxiety inducing experience. One of the most important things to consider when choosing a therapist is the therapeutic relationship. That may seem obvious, but research shows that the relationship is just as important, if not more important, than the techniques used. That's why finding someone you click with is significant in your journey. I treat the relationship with care, building trust, respect, and understanding, but I will also challenge you in sessions because life isn't always easy so therapy won't always feel easy either.

As an adult trying to navigate this world, you often find yourself wondering why everyone else seems to have it all figured out while you are struggling. Maybe you can't connect with your partner or you feel labeled by your family and are struggling to find who YOU really are. You hear advice from all different directions and have tried so many different things and nothing seems to be working. You feel defeated- and now it has become a cycle that is just getting worse. Maybe you can't sleep well or you're feeling disconnected. Imagine waking up tomorrow and feeling like you had a better sense of direction. What would that feel like?

The world is a broken place and my goal is to help clients walk through their brokenness in order to thrive. I cannot take the pain away, but I can walk with you through it and give you tools to take with you on your journey. I have a heart for good marriages and want to encourage you as a team in order to work together and not against each other. Relationships are vital to our community and our health and my desire is to empower you to build long lasting healthy relationships.

Accepting NEW Clients! Do you feel emotionally unsafe, disconnected, or lonely in your marriage or feel as a couple you often communicate angrily or disrespectfully? I have many years’ experience working with couples who feel hopeless, distressed, and ready to call it quits. Couples' work often consists of learning to be vulnerable with each other again, expressing feelings and certain needs to feel connected, and co-regulating negative emotions to increase the closeness you once experienced. Decreasing the negative cycles of conflict will help strengthen the bond in your relationship and finally bring the healing you seek.

Do you find yourself struggling with feelings of depression or anxiety? Perhaps you’re feeling dissatisfied with your current life situation, whether it’s due to a difficult relationship, job, or family issues. It’s possible that you don’t even recognize yourself anymore, as stress and anxiety can change your behavior and how you interact with others.

Welcome to my practice! My name is Laura, and I'm pleased to meet you. I specialize in several areas of human sexuality including medical disorders such as female inorgasmia, betrayal trauma, affair recovery, childhood sexual abuse, healthy sexuality, and consulting with churches and corporations on safe child policies. I will work with you in an understanding and compassionate manner to help transform you into a stronger individual that has survived adversity and triumphed over hurt as well as help you improve your sex life.

Are you an expert worrier? Do you turn to Instagram, alcohol, food, or work to cope/numb out? Perhaps you think your problems and feelings don’t (or shouldn’t) matter. You long to feel calm and connected, but you don’t know how. You feel stuck and lonely. You need a therapist who "gets" you and holds you gently accountable as you experiment with different ways of doing things. I especially enjoy helping high achievers in their 30s and 40s set limits with their children and emotionally immature parents. Other areas of specialty: trauma, narcissistic abuse, and adult ADHD.

I work to help clients find their answers as they gain self-advocacy skills, affirm boundaries, and increase resiliency. I work with teens, children, and women in a private practice setting assuring both a confidential and supportive atmosphere.

I will help make this initial step as easy as possible while we identify your therapy goals and create a plan for therapy that works for you.

I also have an extensive background working with those with sexual issues of all kinds, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and trauma. No matter the issue, we will work together to make progress!

Trying to find the right therapist can be hard work. I hope to make the process a little easier by providing a welcoming, nonjudgmental, and relaxed environment.
