With decades of experience as an MSW and LCSW, I specialize in providing compassionate, client-centered therapy. My background in schools, hospitals, and private practice has equipped me with a deep understanding of diverse client needs. I utilize both talk and expressive therapy to help clients of all ages build resilience and improve their emotional well-being. My genuine passion is to partner with clients, working collaboratively on their terms to achieve their goals.
I have been working in the field for 25 years now. I believe that helping happens in a space where you feel seen, heard and genuinely accepted. Therapy isn't about fixing you it is about helping and understanding yourself more deeply and finding tools that actually work for your life. Whether you are feeling stuck or just needing someone to talk to who truly listens, I am here to walk along side of you.

Hello! It's great to meet you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Indiana, I've been serving clients for the past 18 years after graduating from Indiana University in 2006. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Ball State University in 1991.
I'm passionate about listening to the unique stories of each individual I work with and to be a part of their therapeutic journey.

I am Becky Hunt, and I have had my LCSW for the past 7 years. I have been practicing for 13 years, 6 of those in community mental health and 7 of those in my own private practice. I feel as if becoming a therapist is a calling for me. Having grown up with significant anxiety symptoms, an OCD diagnosis, and some painful eating-disorder issues have created in me an overwhelming desire to help others navigate through this tough world. I am not unfamiliar with conflict and how uncomfortable it can be for some and have found ways to be bold and assertive despite the discomfort and pain. I have a faith that helps me gain insight and perspective on a daily basis and love helping others with some of the same principals and beliefs that strengthen me. I also like to laugh, when I can, about the absurdities of life; I believe is humor is an often overlooked coping skill.

I am Becka Oberle and I am a licensed Clinical social worker who has worked in the counseling field for 30 plus years. My approach to my work is very client centered but also engage person to person allowing my clients to feel more comfortable while still creating a therapeutic relationship and environment. I am goal focused and like to always I provide actions and tools for my clients so they are making continuous growth. I have used many tools in my career knowing not everyone connects in the same way and thinking outside the box is vital. In my career 3 of my dogs have worked with me as trained therapy dogs and one of my horses worked with me doing equine therapy. I look at each person as an individual and use their strengths and talents to help them learn to express and walk through life's struggles. I find not everyone is most comfortable with talking or writing so will encourage a client to use a drawing journal to express feelings when that is something they enjoy and feel more confident in using. I am a christian based counselor and will, at client request, use a faith based approach that can add an added support for the client. I am so blessed to have had this as my career and have worked with clients of all ages starting my career on the cancer center a Riley hospital for Children, moving to a locked unit with juvenile offenders ages 5-11, equine assisted therapy for at risk teens, to working with seniors in long term care or living at home. I am now doing my work from home making the progression as people have been given this as a source of support and allowing them to get help from home.
Jennifer is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana and Florida. She has over 17 years of post graduate experience and has worked in a variety of settings such as inpatient, outpatient, private practice, school and correctional settings. Jennifer works with adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, parenting struggles and women's health concerns. She also has specialized training in Maternal Mental Health (Perinatal Mental Health, pre or postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD or for Maternal wellness and support).
Whether you are navigating obstacles or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can be a place to reconnect with what gives your life meaning. Jennifer believes every individual has the capacity for growth, resilience, and meaningful change when given the right support. Healing is not about becoming someone new—it is about reconnecting with the person you are beneath life's challenges. It is easy to lose touch with yourself while carrying the weight of stress, painful experiences, or life's many demands. Together, you will explore the challenges you are facing, honor your unique story and the choices available to you in the present. Rather than trying to eliminate every uncomfortable thought or emotion, we will make room for the full range of your human experience while exploring how you can respond in ways that align with your values, purpose and hopes for the future. Healing is not about avoiding suffering or having all the answers. It is about developing the courage to face life's uncertainties, embrace your freedom to choose your path and cultivate a life that feels authentic, connected, and meaningful.
I have a Doctorate in Psychology and am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I have been working as a therapist for over 16 years. I specialize in mood disorders, anxiety, trauma and LGBTQIA issues. I believe that therapy should be a safe place to talk about personal issues without any judgment. We all need someone to talk to and therapy provides that space where you can be yourself. We all go through some things from time to time and should be able allowed to talk with someone who is willing to listen and provide us with the support that we need.
Looking for coping skills to manage frequent daily stressors, sexual abuse trauma, depression or anxiety? I've been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) for 23 years and have had a variety of different roles in the behavioral health field. I believe my personal and employment experiences over the years help to inform the way I am with clients.
While I work with adult individuals only at this time, I'm skilled in relationship dynamics and work a lot with individuals who are also involved in therapy with their spouse or significant other. Sometimes individual therapy is required to address personal issues which impact the relationship.
Reaching out for help or trying therapy for the first time can be stressful for some due to past trauma, fear of vulnerability, trust issues, the unknown, etc. If you've made it this far, I'm glad you're pushing through the uncomfortableness in hopes of finding new skills or techniques to help improve your current situation.
I'm an LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive therapist.
**I'm licensed in IL, MI, IN, and NM.**
Hi, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my degree from Indiana University and currently live in Indiana with 2 dogs, 2 horses and a cat. I have over 5 years of experience seeing clients in an office setting, or via telehealth for traditional therapy, as well as play therapy, and animal assisted therapy for in person sessions. I see teens, and adults for telehealth, to assist with developing coping skills, insight, and improved self-care to live life with greater ease, and less distress.
Hello, I’m Suzette, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with teens and adults dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, life changes, and women’s issues. Many of my clients are feeling overwhelmed, dealing with pressure, trying to manage relationships, or simply trying to figure things out while handling everyday responsibilities. I also enjoy working with athletes and understand that the challenges they face go beyond the game. With specialized training in Sport Social Work, I help athletes work through confidence issues, performance pressure, negative self-talk, and the challenges that come with balancing sports and everyday life. My style is direct, supportive, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be yourself, have honest conversations, and feel comfortable talking about what's going on in your life. We'll work together to figure out what's getting in the way and what you can do to move forward.
Hi, I'm a regular gal, with adult kids & have been working in this field since 1990. I will never say I have 'seen it all', as I haven't. I have a pretty good sense of humor, along with a quiet side. Therapy is a place to look inward, to figure it out. I will walk along side of you as needed to do this.
I specialize in trauma recovery and a deeper understanding of grief, one that recognizes that loss isn’t just about death, but about any life-altering change that leaves a void. Trauma doesn’t just live in the past, it lives in our dreams, our bodies, and the gaps in our memories. If you are experiencing ‘forgotten’ memories, bad dreams, or the aftermath of sexual abuse, you don’t have to carry that weight alone. Whether your pain feels loud or like a quiet, persistent void, I provide a compassionate space to process these "invisible" wounds.
As a dedicated and compassionate mental health therapist who is passionate about supporting individuals on their journey to emotional well-being. I bring a fresh perspective, eagerness to learn, and a deep commitment to personal and professional growth. Fluent in Haitian Creole, I'm adept at addressing cultural and linguistic needs. With a strong foundation in evidence-based therapeutic approaches. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered. My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief and postpartum. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and a genuine desire to help individuals navigate everyday challenges. Whether working with individuals, couples, or groups, I'm dedicated to walking alongside clients as they explore their strengths, overcome obstacles, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.
I am a licensed therapist with a strong belief in the ability of each of us to grow, change, and heal. No one is immune from hard times and challenges. Sometimes an accepting ear, a little collaboration, and the practice of some new skills can go a long way in aiding us on our way. Change is hard and seeking help can be intimidating, so I seek to respect the efforts of my clients by providing evidenced based care in a comfortable setting. If you are looking for a knowledgeable collaborator in your efforts to quiet your inner critic, have mastery of your strong emotions, and harness your greatest strengths and values, I would love to partner with you.
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.
Hi! I'm Samantha (or Sam). I specialize in supporting women and LGBTQ+ individuals through life transitions, relationship dynamics, and the complexities of identity that intersect with mental health. I'm very relaxed, warm, and down to earth (and swear a little if you're into it). Therapy can be a space where you can be fully yourself, maybe even laugh a little, and figure things out without judgment. I’m direct when it’s helpful, gentle when things feel heavy, and always focused on helping you understand yourself more clearly.
I am passionate about mental health and take more of a holistic approach to counseling. I take the approach that healing involves the whole person-mind, body, and spirit. With a deep respect for each client’s unique journey, I try to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can explore challenges, uncover strengths, and develop personalized strategies for healing and growth.

You can call me Dan. From a young age I was interested in a career that focused on helping people. I smile when I think about it, but there was a time I thought a career in medicine was what I wanted but I am so bad at math that didn't work out very well. There was a time I thought I was being called into ministry as a pastor, and I wanted to be a pastor that could counsel, but circumstances didn't allow that to happen either. Maybe it's ironic and maybe it's not but I'm not really that much of a talker so I never dreamed that becoming a therapist would be my thing. But then again, therapy is a lot about listening and I do that really well. I enjoy helping others move from places of frustration, and sometimes despair to places of hope and healing. I have always been taught that people deserve respect and to be treated with dignity regardless of what their issue is or where they come from and that is a value I continue to hold. I also find it interesting that the three careers I pursued had their focus in the three things I still believe are important for a life of fulfillment, purpose, and contentment and those are physical health, spiritual health and mental health.
I received a Masters of Divinity degree in 1991, a Masters in Social Work degree in 1996 and my License as a Clinical Social Worker in 1997. I went back to school in 2016 and obtained a MBA in Healthcare Management in 2017. My 30 year career in mental health has been split between providing clinical services, supervising others in their provision of clinical services and administration in the area of Healthcare Quality and Compliance.
road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road…” That belief has guided my work for more than 20 years in the mental and behavioral health field and throughout my 11 years as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in community mental health, schools, correctional settings, and substance use treatment programs. My goal is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore life's challenges, recognize their strengths, and move toward lasting hope and healing.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and many other mental health concerns. While I often begin with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach, I tailor treatment to each person's unique needs by integrating evidence-based therapies such as DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Care. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your family, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you as you build resilience, discover your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change.

In 2008, I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. After 10 months of treatment, I realized I wanted to work with other cancer fighters and their loved ones.

The most common struggles of the people I work with include difficulty managing emotions, problems with self-image, concerns about relationships, struggles with decision making, gray-area substance use, and anger outbursts. The other mindfulness practices can help with managing anxiety, impulsivity, and intrusive thoughts. As your recovery evolves in stages, your treatment will too. We, as people, aren’t one-dimensional. Your treatment won’t be either.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). I want to know your story and help you to achieve your goals. Therapy can be intimidating at first, but I hope after our first session you feel confident in your decision to try. Let's get to work!
