Are you feeling stuck because of your anxiety and depression? Do you feel overwhelmed and unable to manage your emotions? Are you going through something that feels all consuming? Do you seem to be repeating the same undesired patterns? Is your difficulty coping with stress impacting your daily life and ability to connect with those you love? I am here to help! I have a well-rounded background of over 20 years in clinical treatment working with clients individually and in a group setting. I am proficient in serving people suffering from depression, anxiety, OCD, mood disorder, grief, PTSD and trauma, and much more. I have worked with clients in a variety of inpatient and outpatient mental health settings including hospitals, universities, corrections, and VA centers.

I have worked with clients in a variety of inpatient and outpatient mental health settings including hospitals, universities, corrections, and VA centers.

I obtained my master's degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2005 with a specialization in Community Mental Health. I am currently licensed to practice independently in the states of Illinois, Tennessee, and Minnesota. My holistic, client-centered, strengths-based approach utilizes several treatment methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Written Exposure Therapy (WET), Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, and Family Systems. These highly successful, research-based approaches have been proven to be the gold standard in care for the most commonly treated mental health disorders. Counseling is my passion. I believe the patient is the expert in their life, and that they possess an inner strength and resiliency that lay the groundwork for therapy. My welcoming and relaxed counseling style creates an environment where patients feel understood and valued, and where they can be their authentic selves without fear of judgment. I will strive to provide you with the most effective treatment where you can find a sense of purpose and personal fulfillment.

First session

During the first session we will complete a thorough assessment and screening, review psychiatric history, current issues, and goals for treatment. We will then map out treatment goals and plan of care, along with frequency and length of treatment.

Strengths

My biggest strengths are in the areas of anxiety, depression, mood disorder, and trauma. I received additional certification and training in CBT, DBT, CPT and EMDR. These researched based interventions are the "gold standard" in care, and are proven to be the most effective for the aforementioned conditions.

Indie is fantastic. She is skilled in areas I need: ADHD, anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, CBT and is easy to relate to! She’s whip-smart, warm, she’s always paying attention! Believe me, best therapist I have had in decades! She’s the best. Highly recommend.

Indy is a great listener. She is very intelligent and approachable, she makes it easy for me to tell her what has been happening, patterns from my history, etc. I am very grateful to have found her. She always summarizes what we’ve discussed which is great because I have ADHD and I can propel myself through feedback because I can get stuck on an adjective or be overwhelmed by a list of issues/observations, so some review is welcome. I am excited about therapy for the first time in decades.

Indria was the best therapist I could've chosen for myself. She was extremely intelligent, open minded, and gave me a new perspective and outlook on handling conflict. So happy to start this journey with her.
