Licensed to practice in Indiana and accepts 40 insurances. Specializes in Addiction, Mood Disorders, Trauma and PTSD and 2 more.
Do you strive for inner peace, miss who you used to be? Do you find yourself struggling in current relationships or the future you set for yourself? What about expectations you thought you should be living up to but they are not happening? Do you find it hard to express your feelings without feeling the need to justify them? Do you find yourself indulging in certain addictions but don't know why. Are you losing a sense of self or your "why" in life? With my 20+ years of experience, I can adapt the best choice of therapy for you and help you find inner peace and together we can fight to overcome those internal struggles with daily life. I believe together we can change our thoughts, feelings and behaviors so we can experience more positive outcomes in life. Happiness is something we create for ourselves. If you struggle with this I would like the opportunity to explore this with you and better help you understand why. Change starts from within, there is hope and together we can make that happen. I have a gentle but direct way of challenging yourself to help you work toward your inner peace. I provide a safe and secure environment to freely express yourself. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor in Indiana.
In our first session I will listen, we will go over your intake and get more in depth on questions you answered so I can get to know you better and together we can develop the best plan of action to tackle the biggest obstacles that you may be struggling with.
Therapy can be scary, opening up to someone you don't know, sometimes sharing your innermost secrets you never shared. Over my years of interactions with others, I have heard several times clients say I wasn't going to say anything today, or I can't believe I just shared that much. Most people on the street will stop and talk to me and say you're so easy to talk to. Listening is a skill I have developed based on my own life experiences as well as working in the therapy field. If we can't hear what the person is saying we are missing so much. Give yourself a chance, open up and let's create the life you always wanted. It all starts with you.
My focus is on working with clients from young teens age 13+ as I feel I can relate better and be more straight forward with things. If this is you then you found your spot.
