"My speciality is building close rapport with my clients who have told me throughout my years of counseling they feel able to talk with me openly. I believe this is due to the fact that I adhere to the Rogerian Principle of unconditional positive regard and a non-judgemental stance. Treating others with respect and dignity facilitates true self-examination and an opportunity for personal growth. Close rapport is the foundation that will maximize the effectiveness of my cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, treatment that will allow you to quickly reclaim your sense of well-being and optimal level of functioning."

""I am currently accepting new clients!" Experiencing distress as a result of depression, anxiety, strained relationships, PTSD, women's issues, child sexual abuse, behavioral concerns or issues related to military service? I invite you to contact me to schedule an initial assessment. With more than 10 years experience in mental health services I have worked with many individuals & families to decrease their symptoms, improve their functioning and strengthen their relationships. I would like to help you too. I am a graduate of the University of Missouri-Columbia and licensed in the state of Indiana."

"People are often not aware of all the factors affecting their emotions and behavior because they reside at the unconscious level outside of our awareness. These unconscious issues may cause physical symptoms, emotional pain and frustration, or problems in working and relating. The unconscious mind cannot be dealt with directly by reading, journaling, self help advice, or well intentioned suggestions from family or friends. Medication alone and quick-fix therapy are usually inadequate."

"We are a dedicated group of mental health therapists who provide the highest level of services. We have decades of experience working with adolescents, college students, and adults. Our main focus is the care of our clients. We show that by carefully listening to what is being said with words, emotions, and body language. We take our time to truly understand what you are experiencing. Through this process, we will also work to help you to notice your feelings and reactions, develop your voice, and when appropriate, share this with key people in your life."

"We all have trauma, obstacles, setbacks in life, or times where we don't feel our best. It can be a struggle to just get through the day. Sometimes we find that those traumas and obstacles are too big to overcome on our own, and we need help. Therapy can be an excellent place to process through and heal from trauma, gain new coping skills or improve old ones, and develop the self-awareness and insight to reach new levels of personal growth. Whether it's a struggle with a mood disorder like depression/anxiety, major life adjustments like divorce, or processing through a complex trauma history, helping others heal is what I love to do"

"I work with individuals, couples, and families to assist with the psychosocial and behavioral issues associated with life transitions, aging, and illness. I will work as your partner to help you reach your goals. I chose the name of my practice, In Tandem, to reflect this notion - namely, that therapy works best through a collaborative process that moves toward goals that you, the client, identifies. Specific areas of specialty include: General anxiety; Depression; Adjustment to illness; Advanced Care Planning; Bereavement; Caregiver Stress; Seniors' issues; and Dignity Therapy."

"*Although I am not accepting new clients at this time, I encourage you to continue your search for a helpful counselor. And feel free to check back her--in a few weeks I may have openings again.* A good listener can help you think more clearly, understand yourself better, and explore your options. I listen. Together, we will find solid reasons for hope. When it's time to look for solutions, I will draw upon my years of experience and training to help you craft a plan that is individualized to your strengths, needs and goals."

"I believe that human beings have an inherent longing and need for wholeness and balance, which is our natural state of being. However, we sometimes encounter damaging or traumatic events or long term stress that interrupt this natural state. When we are imbalanced, we develop psychological and/or physical symptoms, and we begin to use ineffective coping mechanisms. The good news is that with the right tools, these struggles can be used as a path back to the wholeness we seek. Having worked with clients for over twenty years, I know firsthand the power of using our difficulties to point the way towards healing."

"When you or your child are struggling with upsetting thoughts or emotions, it can be overwhelming and lonely. As an EMDR therapist and a play therapist, I use evidence-based approaches to help children and adults heal from trauma and other distressing life experiences, as well as helping caregivers to build trust and connection with children."

I welcome clients into a supportive, confidential, and safe environment, as I understand how difficult it can be to to take the first step toward treatment. Having recovered from an eating disorder long ago, my treatment style is compassionate, individualized, and client focused. I know how hard it can be to get well. I see clients with varying emotional issues, because these issues also underly eating disorders. People who meet with me have concerns to address in therapy such as anxiety, depression and OCD."

"I believe that you are the expert on you. As such, I aim to create a collaborative atmosphere to address the goals that you have identified. I welcome clients as they are and work with them to create change in a safe environment. My approach often incorporates cognitive behavioral methods, interpersonal awareness, and mindfulness. I borrow from a variety of theories depending on the identified problem and the approach that fits you and your stage of life. I have worked in many different settings, allowing me to experience clinical work with diverse populations."

"I help clients build insight about the barriers keeping them from the life and connection they desire while also developing the tools necessary to make empowered and lasting change. My supportive yet direct style is authentic and compassionate while also being appropriately challenging — creating space for the self-exploration that allows clients to build positive internal & external relationships and experience foundational healing. This collaborative process deepens clients' self-understanding in order to connect them with their own wisdom and ability to navigate life's many challenges and maintain meaningful connections."

"If you hurt and are looking for change we can make a healthy transition together. Therapy as I offer, is about making a heart to heart connection so you feel supported in dealing with rage, grief, fear or whatever problems you face. Clients I work with have dealt with many issues such as anxiety, depression, marital & divorce issues, trauma, phobias, obsessions, compulsions, and more. I specialize in issues of sexuality, gender, and sexual abuse such as rape and incest. I work with many relationships including: families, adults, adolescents, children, couples and partners. I love my work!"

"I am proud to provide a safe environment for all races, genders, religions, and everyone from the LGBTQ community. Making the decision to begin therapy is a courageous one.

I provide a comfortable, confidential, and safe environment for you to talk about your concerns and goals. I use a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help you find a healthy, balanced perspective and to help you reach your true potential."

I specialize in expressive arts therapy, grief & loss, hearing loss issues and major life transitions. In a comfortable and supportive environment I offer a highly personalized approach, tailored to clients' individual needs, to help attain the healing and growth they are striving for."

"*Currently not taking new clients* Greetings! If you are looking for a compassionate, trauma-informed counseling experience, I am here to help! I am a licensed mental health counselor and EMDR therapist in private practice. I approach counseling from a Cognitive/Behavioral Therapy (CBT) lens, though I adapt my approach for individual needs. Understanding how the stories we tell ourselves often have roots in unhealthy thought patterns that no longer serve a purpose. In therapy, we address these experiences to unlock the natural processes of healing, free from judgment. "

"**I am currently full and unable to accept new clients. Hope to have more availability soon**I have a warm, collaborative working style that integrates a systemic theoretical orientation (understanding people's lives in the context of biology, relationships, work, and larger social/cultural systems) with highly individualized, evidence-based treatment. I enjoy working with people across the lifespan, from adolescence through older adulthood. I have extensive training/experience in the areas of family therapy (e.g., Functional Family Therapy), parenting, co-parenting through divorce/family disruption, trauma, and developmental challenges through adolescence and emerging adulthood."

"Sometimes life confronts us with experiences that are disruptive personally or in our relationships resulting in feelings of depression, anxiety, or loss. While these feelings are normal, they can present challenges in terms of maintaining our sense of well-being and our ability to function well in our daily lives. In my view, the purpose of therapy is to help clients understand the source of disruptions, help them learn strategies for coping with and working-through difficult emotions, and become aware of triggering experiences. In this way, clients can learn how to repair disruptions and thereby restore their sense of well-being."

"I provide an experience where your problems can be addressed in an open, non-judgmental, and confidential setting. I am not a passive therapist. I seek to help individuals, couples, and families learn how to move forward. Learning may involve growing one's self- acceptance or lessening one's dependence upon approval. It may involve improving one's judgment and/or taking care of oneself in relationships. The learning may involve "letting go" of a "bad" relationship or grieving losses . It may involve overcoming anxiety, depression or addiction(s). Lastly, learning may involve restoring broken trust or estrangement."
