Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Blackford County, IN

I provide clients with a compassionate and goals-driven counseling environment, so that we can find the best way to overcome challenges together. Whether it's anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, experiences of trauma, or otherwise, I hope to offer you both an active, empathetic listening ear, as well as ways to take your power back.

Hey there! I'm excited you’re here. Balancing work, relationships, and family can be extremely difficult...adulting is rough, am I right? Growing up in the Google era, I too understand the social media anxiety experience. How do you manage information overload and make meaningful connections in a rapidly changing world? If you’re feeling lost or anxious- let's talk! I am here to help individuals learn how to manage life’s challenges in a effective and positive way. Additionally, I offer animal therapy with the adorable ICAN therapy dog, Levi (see pic below), providing unique support in our healing work together.

Welcome! A fundamental part of my practice is the belief that creating a safe place where one can express themself freely and honestly is conducive to healing. I intend to walk alongside you and offer support and guidance to help you gain a sense of peace and control. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, substance abuse and other problems that are affecting your relationships, career, physical health and friendships. Through listening and applying different therapeutic modalities such as EMDR, I hope to help you find relief and solutions to current pains and past traumas.

After almost 20 years of practice I know that managing life is challenging and our mental health is at the core of our ability to lead happy and healthy lives. When a person's mental and emotional health is not a top priority nothing else matters. I understand these things personally and professionally and I am extremely passionate about my work!

Have you been struggling lately? Perhaps you’ve encountered some depression or anxiety. You could find yourself in a difficult situation now, or still trying to recover from a past trauma. It could be your child who is struggling, and it feels like nothing you are doing is working. Perhaps you’ve considered counseling or have tried therapy in the past. You know you can do better, but you don’t want to have someone try to change everything about you. You know who you are and what you value. You want someone to listen. Really listen. You have a goal or goals for yourself, but don’t quite have the tools to reach them.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults suffering from PTSD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-esteem, and substance use. I've also worked with families and couples to improve relationships and communication. I believe the biggest factor to successful therapy is based on the relationship between the therapist and the client. I am able to use my own life experiences to help build this relationship and relate more naturally.

We all experience life in our own way. Our thoughts, feelings, and expectations can be so overwhelming that they become obstacles to making decisions and living our lives to the fullest. If you are experiencing one of life’s unexpected challenges and would like to explore your thoughts and feelings in a private, safe, and comfortable environment tailored to help increase your awareness and ability to work through challenges, I am here for you. I view therapy as a safe space for processing life experiences, emotions, thoughts, and trauma in order to achieve one’s goals and necessary growth.

As a therapist, I am most excited to see clients motivated to explore their unknown strengths, widen their horizons, increase their abilities to make informed decisions and lead a life of meaning as they define it. Everyone I have worked with brings to therapy a foundation upon which to grow. Regardless of the problem, an enhanced sense of self is possible. Instilling hope of something better in life is one of my greatest motivations, and assisting others in achieving their goals drew me to this profession.

We all have innate wisdom about what is best for us but may struggle to believe this about ourselves. Your mind may be loud and chaotic, you might struggle with anger and life changes. Trauma may have damaged your view of yourself. I strive to create a safe environment in which you can be curious about the relationship between your inner and outer worlds, and how they relate. Through curiosity, I hope to show you that there are no “bad parts" of you, just parts that may no longer serve you. I'll guide you to connect mind/body to navigate old and new thoughts, experiences, and emotions.

Clients seek my help to navigate the struggles and difficulties that often revolve around intimacy/sexuality, family conflict, and personal identity. Those who desire to repair conflicts, reduce problematic (sexual, spiritual, emotional) patterns, establish healthier relationships, or heal trauma interfering with the present will align well. I earned my PhD in Clinical Sexology. This allowed me to professionally expand my practice from relational to deeply personal as sexuality impacts so much. Clients find this work highly valuable.

Mental health maintenance is essential to overall well-being. Whether you're struggling with feelings of hopelessness, excessive worry, or adjusting to loss, from time to time we all need to address the challenges life throws at us. Sometimes, we can cope with those challenges in ways that have worked in the past without any problems. There is power in each person to overcome most things. I can help you find your way through those challenges.

Do irrational beliefs about yourself affect your confidence, relationships, work performance, goals, and overall happiness? Have you endured a traumatic event or did you have a traumatic childhood? I have a passion for helping adults through difficult times. I also believe our mental health is just as important as our physical health! My goal is to help you discover and learn a new belief system about yourself and to change assumptions that have been interfering with a healthy "you" for years. This is your trauma journey through healing and I am here to help navigate at your own pace.

Hello friends! I’m passionate in empowering individuals through providing a safe space of exploration, wonder, and curiosity to work through the adversities faced in pursuit of seeking joy and validation. I am client centered and incorporate positive psychology in sessions. It can be challenging to reach out for help and can feel a variety of ways. I hope to provide a secure space for people to feel heard and validated. When working with teens or children, I take a collaborative approach with the parents. It is so important to me to providing a safe nonjudgemental space.

Struggling with deep-rooted issues such as trauma, generational patterns, or the unique challenges of parenting children with mental and intellectual disabilities? Since 2015, I've been empowering parents to navigate these complexities, fostering confidence and breaking generational cycles. My holistic approach addresses mental, emotional, and spiritual transformation, providing tailored strategies for behavior change and managing the nuances of raising children with disabilities. I guide you to become a confident, purposeful parent, ready to embrace healthier, more empowering dynamics.

I specialize in working with women who have experienced trauma, are having relationship issues, or suffer with mood or anxiety disorders, and need help transitioning to a more authentic, enjoyable, & harmonious life; unencumbered by mental health struggles. We will create a warm, positive space where it’s safe to be vulnerable & honest. From there, we co-create a roadmap to address your therapy needs. Together, we will discuss your self-identity and core beliefs, how these formed, and how they help or hold you back. We will explore new coping skills and new narratives as we move through therapy. We work in session to heal.
