LCSW, 2 years of experience
Hello and welcome! I am Sierra Coulahan and I am an LCSW based in Indiana. I graduated with my masters degree from Indiana University in 2019. I have been working as a therapist and counselor since 2019. I enjoy working with young adults and adults who are struggling with burn out, life transitions, relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, depression, and any other issues. I love to work with and empower clients to help them identify and utilize their unique strengths to enhance wellness and relationships.
In our first session together, we will spend some time with introductions. Then I will spend some time gathering information about what it is you're seeking therapy for, as well as going over your personal history. From there, we can discuss goals for treatment and scheduling further appointments if the client is interested.
I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship between the provider and client. I enjoy using humor when appropriate and a laid back and non judgemental approach to connect with clients. I have found humor and compassion very helpful in the therapeutic process with clients.
I love working with adults, young adults, and women in my therapy practice. I have experience working with adolescents, teens, young adults, adults and couples. With adolescents and teens, I enjoy creating a fun and open environment to allow the client to feel comfortable speaking about their unique difficulties and strengths.
I enjoy implementing a strengths-based approach in my work with clients to empower clients to recognize and enhance personal strengths to improve well-being and relationships.
Many of the Gottman interventions can be helpful in enhancing relationships
I am experienced in working with clients who have experienced trauma, and I use a trauma-informed approach by meeting clients where they are in their journey. I like to create a safe, welcoming environment to help clients feel comfortable in exploring their unique challenges at a pace that is most comfortable for the client.
Motivational interviewing is a helpful modality that I like to use with clients to help identify motivations for change, as well as the client's unique strengths.

This was my first therapy session and Sierra made me so comfortable and heard!

I think what originally brought me to Sierra was that she was the only one who had humor as part of her therapy style. I like that it is part of her style because it makes it easier to open up and less awkward for me.
