About me

Hi, my name is Anna, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Indiana. Taking that first step to acknowledging that you need help, is one of the hardest one, so finding a counselor you are able to connect with shouldn't be. If you're looking for a counselor who is laid back and open to work with you on any areas of need you may have, we may be a good fit. I believe being able to talk things out with someone who is open to hearing anything you may have to say and not passing judgment is often times needed when working on healing. I work to keep the mood light when needed but also provide the space to experience emotions without shame. During those times of processing I like to utilize the last few minutes of session to debrief, wind down, and possibly experience some laughter prior to ending session so you are able to leave feeling better.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session will be a meet-and-greet with me asking a lot of questions about you, but this also is a time for you to ask me questions and gauge if you feel we are a good fit. Feeling comfortable and at ease is one of the most important parts of successful counseling, so if you ever feel we are not a good fit, please just let me know so we can get you with someone you better align with for your treatment needs.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As the clinician I try to ensure each session is tailored to assist you in what is needed at that time. We will work as a team to identify areas of challenge as well as construct treatment goals to work on reducing those challenges. I tend to be a laid back individual and most sessions will be conversational, however I am a clinician that will challenge clients when needed to continue to grow. Sometimes it helps to have accountability to grow, so I will call you out if I feel you have more to give.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am a clinician that is ok with cussing, discussions of sexual concerns, concerns on today's topics, LGBTQIA topics, relationship dynamics (poly, monogamous, open, working through infidelity), and any other area you may want to focus on. I like working with a wide range of clients, and appreciate being able to provide a space where clients can be themselves and openly discuss whatever is needed to work on understanding and healing.

My treatment methods

Eclectic

When it comes to treatment methods I tend to be a bit eclectic, there are many areas that I pull from to best assist you and your treatment needs. The areas that I have training and practice in are CBT, DBT, Narrative, Gottman Couples (Level 3 trained), Mindfulness/meditation, Yoga, Somatic, and SFBT. I continue to seek out trainings and education opportunities to stay on top of the skills needed to best assist you. I hold the belief that healing is a holistic journey and all aspects must be healthy and aligned to be able to achieve total health.

She was very intuitive and had great resource references for me to look into and try. She asked questions and got me thinking about my perspective on things. Can't wait to see what the next meeting brings!

Anna has been amazing so far, she listens well, she doesn't judge and genuinely wants to help. She is very helpful in holding accountability. She does a great job to help you see different perspective and listening to your personal goals and is very intentional about helping you meet those.
