Hello, I’m Dr. Leslie Capehart, an LMHC with over 25 years of experience across clinical settings, private practice, and academia. At some point, most people find themselves feeling stuck—whether it’s anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or just a sense that something isn’t working but you can’t quite put your finger on it. It can feel overwhelming, frustrating, and at times like you’re repeating the same patterns without understanding why. That’s where I come in. My approach is straightforward, collaborative, and focused on helping you actually move forward. I’ll support you, but I’ll also challenge you to look more closely at the patterns, assumptions, and blind spots that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll identify what’s no longer working, shift the thinking patterns behind it, and build practical tools you can use in your day-to-day life. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem, with a focus on helping you gain clarity, make meaningful changes, and stop repeating what isn’t working. ***Please note that I don't specialize in working with addiction issues, and if that is something you are actively struggling with, I encourage you to look for a provider who specializes in working in addictions. It's important you find the best person for you.

I work with high-performing professionals who are exhausted from carrying too much responsibility for too long. Many of my clients are leaders, healthcare providers, executives, and driven individuals who appear successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally depleted behind the scenes. Before becoming a full-time therapist, I served in senior healthcare leadership roles, including Regional Vice President. I understand the pressure of performance plans, regulatory scrutiny, organizational instability, and the silent weight of being the person everyone else depends on. In therapy, we focus on restoring clarity, rebuilding emotional resilience, and addressing the root causes of anxiety, trauma, and chronic stress. My approach integrates evidence-based cognitive and trauma-informed interventions with practical, real-world strategies that support both professional and personal stability. If you are a high-achieving individual who feels stuck, overextended, or quietly unraveling under pressure, you are not weak. You are overloaded. Together, we will recalibrate your nervous system, strengthen your internal narrative, and restore sustainable performance without sacrificing your well-being.

As a licensed mental health counselor, my role is to walk alongside you and provide you with helpful tools while you are working through obstacles that have made life challenging for you. In my practice, I work with children, adolescents, and adults as they are navigating through school, work, home, and relationships. I have five years of clinical experience working with clients with differing mental health difficulties from trauma, suicidal ideation, crisis management, life transitions, and more. While we cannot change the difficulties that you have experienced in the past, we can work together to resolve any current challenges in your life and work to better manage future challenges. I provide short- and long-term therapy working primarily with mood and personality disorders. I use evidence-based approaches and my training includes Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma Informed Care. If you are ready to make change in your life and begin to achieve your goals, together we can work to enhance your quality of life and create a life worth living. Remember, seeking help is the first step in your healing journey. Thank you for taking the first step in seeking treatment.

My name is Mia Morton and I am the Founder and CEO of Imperfections Counseling Services. I am happy to see that you have the courage to begin your journey . Seeking help can be difficult to do, so I must give you kudos for being so brave. I feel it is important for the client to guide the therapy sessions so that they are empowered to move forward on their own eventually. I provide services that assist my clients with making changes in their thinking patterns and develop new skills to improve their lives. I feel that my patience and understanding of life and life’s struggles assists me with assisting others. I am also a mother of 2 and a grandmother of 6. I also previously worked with at risk youth through a not-for-profit organization to assist with trauma care, and behavioral concerns. Being a black woman assists in the empathy and sympathy I have for people of color and the various forms of oppression we face daily. On my platform, "You are IMPERFECTLY perfect"

Hi, I’m Ciera, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping people slow down, make sense of their experiences, and reconnect with themselves in more authentic ways. Do you ever feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by stress and self-doubt? You don't have to navigate that alone; therapy can be a space to better understand those experiences and begin moving toward lasting change. I believe healing happens when you feel understood, supported, and empowered to explore what’s been holding you back. Because every person’s story and needs are different, I tailor therapy to fit each client’s unique experiences and goals. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity, emotional resilience, and a stronger connection with yourself. When I’m not in session, you can usually find me recharging with a good book, spending time with loved ones, or moving my body through exercise. Just like my clients, I know life can feel like “too much” at times, but it can also be a place of growth, possibility, and meaning. My focus is to walk alongside you as you discover what that looks like for you.

Hey there. I'm Dennis aka Denny Bartsch. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the field for over 15 years. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and Strength Based techniques in my practice. I'm a goofy social worker who likes to use a non-confrontational approach to working with my clients. I do believe that you know your story/life better than I ever will so I believe in what you have to say. One thing that makes me pretty different from other service providers is that I saw a need for session times available for clients later in the day and evening so I decided to have my scheduled be from Monday through Friday's from 12:30pm EST to 9pm EST. I hope to accommodate more people this way. I like to use humor and positive support for my client's as we go on this journey together to helping you achieve the goals we identify in session together. My goal is to work towards you having the skills, support, and confidence you need to be successful. I like to think outside of the box when I work with my client's so you just wait and see! Therapy doesn't need to be scary. Let's work together and maybe laugh through some of it. We got this! Together!

Are you ready to make a change? I'm Cheri Counterman, LCSW. I've been working as a therapist and medical social worker for over a decade. I've worked with clients who have had a wide range of concerns like depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, trauma, and many more. For therapeutic modalities, I specialize in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) but also utilize other forms of therapy like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Person-Centered Therapy. I am passionate about learning new therapeutic skills and attend yearly trainings to stay on top of new evidence-based therapies to help my clients. I know that asking for help can be one of the most vulnerable things we do as humans. That's why it's so important to me to make sure your time with me is as comfortable as possible. My goal is to create an open, safe space where you can feel supported in whatever you need from me. I believe that all people are valuable and deserve love and support no matter what they've been through. Everyone has their own unique story and journey through life; my job is not only to listen but also to help guide you toward healing your mind, body and spirit so that you can live the life you're meant to live!

Life is full of challenges. Whether it's navigating major life transitions, coping with medical conditions, or working through grief and loss. These experiences can increase anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm. Therapy can be a powerful tool to build resilience, manage stress, and develop practical skills for both today's challenges and whatever lies ahead. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Oncology Social Worker (OSW-C) and Certified Health and Wellness Coach (CHWC), I bring over 30 years of experience to partner with you in your healing journey. In my practice, I used evidenced-based approaches to teach effective coping strategies, foster emotional resilience, and guide clients toward wellness and growth. Whether you are dealing with a recent medical diagnosis, navigating recovery, grieving a loss, struggling with anxiety and depression, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's demands. I am currently offering virtual therapy to individuals across Indiana. My goal is to help clients not only manage what they are going through now, but to equip them with the tools to face future challenges with confidence and strength.

Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in patterns that no longer seem to work? Perhaps you're carrying the stress of a difficult relationship, navigating a major life change, struggling with constant worry or self-doubt, or simply exhausted from trying to hold everything together on your own. If so, you're not alone—and things can get better. Therapy offers a supportive, evidence-based space to slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, and develop practical tools for lasting change. You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. My practice focuses on teletherapy for adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions. With decades of experience in private practice and clinical settings, I have helped individuals navigate stress, trauma, adjustment challenges, and difficult seasons of life. This experience has given me a grounded understanding of the many ways people can feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I am engaged, honest, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel both safe and purposeful. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and work toward greater emotional clarity, resilience, and well-being. Whether you're seeking therapy for the first time or returning with specific goals, I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes. My goal is to help you feel more confident in yourself, your relationships, and your ability to handle life's challenges. If you're ready for things to feel different—to feel calmer, more connected, and more like yourself again—I invite you to schedule a consultation. Reaching out can be the first step toward feeling more hopeful, supported, and in control of your life.

As a Flex-Care Counselor, I strive to provide compassionate, client-centered support to individuals and families facing emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. My role is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe that every individual has unique strengths and the capacity for growth and change. As a counselor, I focus on helping clients recognize those strengths while developing practical coping skills that support emotional well-being and resilience. My approach is holistic, meaning I consider the emotional, mental, social, and sometimes spiritual aspects of a person’s life when supporting their healing process. In my work as a Flex-Care Counselor, I use a variety of evidence-based counseling approaches depending on each client’s needs. These may include cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness techniques, solution-focused methods, and trauma-informed care. My goal is to help clients better understand their thoughts and behaviors, manage stress and emotions, and build healthier relationships. I also value collaboration and respect the client’s personal values, culture, and life experiences. I see counseling as a partnership where the client and counselor work together to identify goals, overcome challenges, and create meaningful change. Ultimately, who I am as a Flex-Care Counselor is someone committed to supporting others with empathy, professionalism, and dedication. I aim to empower clients with the tools and confidence they need to navigate life’s challenges and move toward a healthier and more fulfilling future.

Hi there! My name is Iris and I am a Masters-level clinician who is currently pursuing a doctorate degree in Counseling Psychology. If you are looking for a therapist who who can be both a cheerleader and a challenger, look no further. I approach my work from a psychodynamic perspective, meaning I try to help clients explore the deeper roots that keep them stuck in unhelpful patterns or self-destructive behaviors. I view this as a collaborative process where I merge my wisdom and expertise of psychology with the wisdom and expertise I believe people have on themselves - whether or not they are currently aware of it. I strive to cultivate a genuine therapeutic relationship where exploration of the past and present can occur safely and all parts of one's self can be witnessed and addressed without judgement. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my German Shepherd, Dozier, creative writing, reading, being outdoors, lifting weights, spending time with friends, and traveling.

Stop. Unclench your jaw. Relax your shoulders. Breath. My practice is focused on decreasing negative mental health symptoms through a mind and body approach. My work relies on mindfulness and somatic practices that support clients of all ages. Mindfulness as a practice with children and adults supports emotional regulation and decreases anxiety. The intervention serves as a means to decrease impulsive behavior and reduce stress and anxiety. For children and adults with ADHD the practice can be effective in increasing attention and focus through the use of the senses, movement, and breath. Somatic practices can relieve symptoms caused by trauma and PTSD symptoms and anxiety and stress reduction. These interventions support emotional regulation and depressive symptoms by restoring movement and breath flow.

Anxious? Worried all the time? Having panic attacks? Well, you're not alone and I can help! In recent years, anxiety has become one of the most common mental health concerns out there and it can leave you distracted, breathless, overwhelmed and feeling out of control. Symptoms of general anxiety, panic disorders, health anxiety, OCD and PTSD can be difficult to navigate, especially when you feel alone and don't know where to start. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. I have been in the counseling field for almost 30 years. I've worked in private practice throughout that time but have also worked in the criminal justice and community mental health settings, helping people with anxiety, depression, and addictions. I work primarily with adults using cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I like helping people learn the neuroscience behind anxiety and build skills to manage it better. I love seeing people take back some of the power they feel they've lost to anxiety or helping them see the light at the end of the tunnel in depression or addiction. Taking the first step is one of the hardest, but things can feel better for you.

We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Indiana from Fort Wayne to Evansville!

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
