Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, life changes, and relationship issues. My work focuses on guiding people through battles with self-criticism and doubt toward a place of greater acceptance and peace.

During unexpected challenges in life, you may feel alone and as if no one fully understands your pain. You may even feel stuck and hopeless that things will ever improve or change. The decision to reach out for support is often scary, but an important and courageous step towards healing. Throughout my work hearing each person’s unique story, I have come to believe that meaningful connection and change is possible for everyone.

You may be experiencing some difficulty taking care of your mental health but I'm glad you are taking the first step towards wellness, growth and empowerment by searching for a therapist. It takes courage to seek out therapy. As a therapist, I value the therapeutic process of reflection and relationship building through the implementation of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, EMDR, Brainspotting (BSP), Motivational Interviewing, and other personalized therapy approaches. Together we can develop plans to work towards reaching your goals.

“There is a disconnect between who I am and who I want to be" "I am ready to turn over a new leaf!". Let me help you take control of your life, thoughts, self-esteem, and motivation. We can work together to help you get back to a life of joy and a passion to live again. My ideal client is ready for growth, self-exploration, and inspiration!

Have you been lonely, frustrated and insecure for far too long? Does it seem impossible to be happy, motivated and confident to take on new challenges? We all go through tough seasons of change in life, in which we blame ourselves, and ruminate in our own anxious or depressive spirals that ultimately hold us back. I'm here to improve that through healing from the past, embracing change, identifying strengths that were always there, as well as gain new confidence. I use a variety of evidence based approaches to therapy to clients grow through challenging seasons into confident people once again.

I have direct experience working with families, groups, and individuals. I have a passion for Perinatal Mental Health. I enjoy working with individuals who are struggling with Anxiety, Depression, Grief and Loss, and Trauma Recovery. All of my therapy sessions are held on a secure online platform. This allows you to have therapy in the comfort of your own space and be able to access therapy from anywhere in Indiana.

I offer a warm and affirming environment for clients. I believe that every individual is unique and work from a client center and strength-based approach. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental and supportive space.

Pregnancy and postpartum is hard…and balancing a life outside of parenthood brought unexpected challenges, changing your world in profound ways. Maybe the joy of expecting or the arrival of a new baby, has left you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and uncertain. These transitions can be as disorienting as they are beautiful, touching deep emotions, possibly reawakening past traumas or intensifying fears about the future. You're navigating a complex mix of emotions—joy, fear, anticipation, anxiety and grief. You need someone who can guide you through this new era. You're seeking a path to feel balanced, connected, and whole again.

I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Miami University and my Master's degree in Counseling from Indiana University. I have experience in working with adults, teens, couples, families, and groups. Overall, I enjoy engaging people in psychotherapy by creating a safe, validating, and collaborative environment. I believe in taking the time to explore emotions and thoughts, while also providing people with tools to manage stress or specific symptoms. I enjoy identifying clients' strengths to help elevate them and create confidence in their ability to better manage stress.

Hello! I am accepting new clients to be seen in-person at the CTS Counseling Center and virtual clients who can be anywhere in Indiana.

I have expertise in existential, life-meaning, and spiritual issues for Christians, non-Christians, and those who are not religious. I also have a special interest and knowledge in Maternal Mental Health from infertility issues, to pregnancy blues, to postpartum challenges. As a family therapist, I can help you manage family dynamics whether you bring them to sessions or not. I also accept couples, and I am LGBT+ affirming.

In an era where perinatal health reaches unprecedented lows and hormonal imbalances and infertility rates soar, I am here to provide dedicated care. I focus on all aspects of women's health by aiding females from teens to middle aged adults with hormonal imbalances, PCOS, irregular cycles, nutritional deficiencies, anxiety, birth trauma, postpartum depression, and more. As a Family Nurse Practitioner, I take a holistic approach to address my clients' physical, mental, and emotional health to ultimately achieve whole body wellness.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with almost a decade of experience in the mental health field. I work with teens, young adults, college students, and women living with OCD, anxiety, phobias, trauma, BFRBs (hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting), and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (postpartum depression, OCD, and anxiety). I am an active member of the International OCD Foundation and Postpartum Support International. I stay up to date with the latest research in mental health, engage in regular case consultation with field leaders, and complete continuing education trainings throughout the year.

Big feelings welcome here! Overthinking too. You are not alone, but you are unique and deserve to discover how your history, environment and beliefs impact you presently. I regularly hear from my clients about the positive changes they are making when they learn to cope with the roots of their pain, anxiety, fears and destructive patterns. They feel lighter, their relationships improve and new opportunities are discovered and taken.

Are you a mama adjusting to life with a newborn? Is the transition to parenthood different than what you were expecting? Do you feel like you are faking it when you are really drowning? Are you exhausted and struggling with self-doubt? Maybe you are longing to hold your newborn, but instead experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss. I specialize in maternal mental health where I help perinatal and postpartum clients adjust to life changes associated with their unique situations.

My approach as a board certified art therapist is to use creative and sensory exploration to navigate deeper feelings when words are difficult to articulate. Art therapy is ageless; any age can benefit with no artistic skill required! Some challenges I help children process through include: anxiety, trauma, ADHD, school related issues, and divorce. I also offer the option of traditional talk therapy to work through parenting, pregnancy, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Parents talk through discipline, bonding, anger, and building trust with their kids. Tele-therapy is also available for Indiana and Illinois residents.

I am so glad you decided to take time to invest in yourself. Life often takes a toll on us, and we stay so busy it is hard to make time to take care of ourselves. I have worked with people with a variety of symptoms and from different walks of life. The thing a lot of people are missing is connection, and I strive to help create that connection and start moving forward. I work with men and women with the transition to parenthood and with couples in strengthening their marital friendship. I have experience work with trauma and have extensive training in this as well as being certified in EMDR.

I work with couples, individuals, families and children online, via teletherapy, as well as in person. I support my clients across the life span to heal from losses and improve their relationships.

Come as you are. I have many years of experience working with people and have seen people travel from brokenness to restoration. This isn't the end of your story. It takes an incredible amount of courage to face things in life but you don't have to be alone. I know that it can be scary to walk into a therapy room and share things that require great vulnerability. Lack of self-love. Infertility. Pregnancy Loss. Postpartum Depression. Guilt/Shame. Life Transitions. Identity. Marriage and Family Issues. Whatever you're facing, I would love to help you find healing.
