Looking through endless therapist profiles can be exhausting when you're already struggling. Let me make this simple: I don't sugarcoat things. I'm here to actively work with you, not just listen and nod like a sounding board. Working together, we can actually change what's not working by developing practical skills that are effective and easy to use. I've witnessed countless journeys of growth and healing and I believe wholeheartedly in your capacity for change. I work well with all kinds of people, and I especially click with gamers, students, and musicians - shared interests tend to lead to a better therapeutic connection.
I collaborate with my clients to develop goals and plans to meet those goals by working to understand what motivates you and pushes you to grow and change. I have a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction.

Hello! My name is Laura Lininger, LCSW. I attended Indiana University and got my BA in Psychology and then moved on to Tulane University in NOLA for my Masters in Social Work. I have worked for many years doing child and adolescent therapy and then later added working with adults to the services I provide. I believe my child and adolescent therapy background has been a great foundation for working with adults who are dealing with childhood trauma or family of origin issues. As for treatment approaches, I use Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR. I also include a lot of mindfulness practice in my work with clients. I am proud to provide a safe environment for all races, genders, religions, and clients from the LGBTQ community.

Finding the right therapist can be an important step toward feeling more understood, grounded, and connected to yourself. I’m Elizabeth, and I believe therapy should be a collaborative and honest space where you feel safe as you unburden yourself from what you have been holding. Whether you are seeking support through a difficult season, hoping to better understand yourself, or working toward meaningful change, therapy can be a collaborative process. I hope that you leave our work together with a stronger sense of yourself and confidence in your ability to move toward the life you want.
My clinical experience spans private practice, outpatient, residential, and committed settings, where I primarily work with adults navigating traumatic experiences, life transitions, personality and mood disorders, ADHD, addictions, and sexual disorders.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Master’s in Clinical & Community Mental Health from Western Illinois University.

I help adults (and teens 13+), virtually and in-person, who are struggling with anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunctions, eating disorders/disordered eating, and adjustment issues related to grief. Grief can manifest not just from death, but also from the end of a relationship, loss of a dream, health issues, or any unexpected changes in life. My work extends to helping those who have experienced trauma, as well as individuals looking to improve their self-esteem, strengthen their relationships, and manage stress effectively. In collaboration, from a trauma informed and compassion-focused approach, I will help you in creating a toolbox of techniques to soothe your nervous system while fostering self-compassion and building emotional awareness.

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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have 5 years of experience as a School Social Worker. I graduated from Indiana University Northwest in 2021 with my master's degree. I am a therapist who believes people are stronger than they give themselves credit for. My passion is helping you find your strength and strategies to meet your goals. I keep things warm, supportive, and will never make you feel judged for what you bring to me. I am here to support you and help you navigate to where you want to be.
Outside of work, I run a small farm with pigs, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, and a garden, so my life involves a fair amount of dirt and a lot of animals with strong opinions. I also love to fish, do woodwork, cook from scratch, and make soy candles. Being in nature is how I reset, and I am happy to talk about what helps you reset too.

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.

How much of your life is spent waiting to feel confident enough to live it?
I’m Fred, a licensed clinical social worker who works with adults struggling with anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, and major life stress. My practice is direct, collaborative, and practical. I draw primarily from Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based approaches.
A lot of people come to therapy believing they need more confidence, more clarity, or more certainty before they can move forward. Often, confidence is built differently: by learning to act, adapt, and make meaningful decisions even while doubt, anxiety, and difficult emotions are still present. Together, we’ll work on changing the patterns that keep you stuck and building the flexibility and confidence to move toward the life you want.

It's time for a change. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, frustrated, or held back by self-doubt, perfectionism, ADHD-related challenges, or imposter syndrome, know that you do not have to keep living this way. Change is possible, and you don't have to figure it out on your own. The life you want is often closer than it feels, and taking the first step can make all the difference.
I help leaders, athletes, and performers develop greater self-confidence, resilience, and self-awareness so they can perform at their best. Whether your goals involve improving your career, strengthening relationships, enhancing performance, becoming a more effective leader, or simply feeling more fulfilled in everyday life, I am passionate about helping people overcome the obstacles that stand in their way.
My approach combines more than 20 years of experience in military mental health with a specialization in sport and performance psychology. This unique background allows me to understand challenges from multiple perspectives and tailor strategies to your specific needs. I recognize that success is not just about working hard; it is about understanding yourself, leveraging your strengths, and developing the skills necessary to thrive under pressure.
Together, we will identify what is holding you back, build on what is already working, and create a practical plan to help you move forward with confidence. My goal is to provide a supportive, challenging, and results-oriented environment where you can develop the tools needed to create meaningful and lasting change.
You have already taken an important step by exploring your options. The next step is deciding that your growth, well-being, and future are worth investing in. I invite you to take that step today by scheduling an appointment and beginning to build the life you want to live.

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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience supporting adults through periods of stress, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and supported.
I take a warm, collaborative approach to therapy and work to create a space that feels steady, thoughtful, and safe. I draw from psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed perspectives to help clients better understand emotional patterns, strengthen coping skills, and navigate challenges with greater clarity and self-compassion.
Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and capable, yet feel overwhelmed or disconnected beneath the surface. Others are moving through significant transitions and are looking for support as they sort through emotions, relationships, or long-standing patterns. Therapy with me is paced intentionally and tailored to each individual’s needs, goals, and life circumstances.
Clients often describe me as calm, supportive, and insightful. My goal is to help you feel grounded and supported while working toward meaningful, sustainable change.

I have found great success with walking along side the people I work with to help them move from where they are to where they want to be…wherever that might be! I’m nonjudgmental and accepting of all walks of life- LGBTQIA+ individuals are welcome.
I didn’t get into therapy to “fix” people, I use my practice to guide and help find new ways of doing or looking at things. I love being able to track the progress my clients make when they utilize the skills we’ve talked about in session. I use a mix of Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for most cases. For those suffering from PTSD, I use my Certified Clinical Trauma Professional training which includes somatic (body) work along with narrative work, all of which is grounded in the neuroscience of trauma. I have my Perinatal Mental Health Certificate as well, meaning I am aptly trained to help with anyone transitioning into new parenthood. I’m not overly concerned with labels and diagnoses, I’m just here to help you make changes to function and feel better day to day.
If you think my approach sounds like it would help you, please reach out and we can schedule our first session to determine if we’ll be a good fit to work together moving forward. I genuinely can’t wait to meet you.

Do you feel stuck in a pattern that is negatively impacting your overall wellness?
Just as important as the "why" is the "what" aspect of the mind. What we think, what we feel and what we believe are all intertwined with our behavior. Exploring the thoughts and beliefs that underpin certain actions can lead to profound self-awareness and personal growth. In my interactions with clients, I have witnessed the transformative power of uncovering and challenging deep-seated beliefs that no longer serve them.
While patterns and commonalities may emerge among individuals, it is crucial to remember that each person's mind is a unique landscape. What works for one may not work for another, and it is my duty as a clinician to adapt the plan of care accordingly. As a therapist and health coach, I incorporate a holistic (mind/body) approach.

Hi there! I'm Ross (he/him), and I'm so happy you are making the steps to focus on your mental health. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel like a safe, affirming space where you can be your authentic self without judgement. Because of this I focus primarily on using affirmative therapy as my main modality.
I specialize in working with young adults and adults, especially those in the LGBTQIA+ community, who may be navigating identity, relationships, anxiety, or life transitions. I also have experience with assisting those experiencing burnout whether from caregiving, work, or from other aspects of life!
My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, which means I'll meet you where you are, honor your experiences, and support you in building the confidence and tools you need to thrive. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, identity development, relationships, or navigating life in general I'd be happy to support you and walk with you through that journey.
I know it can be overwhelming to start therapy, but you don't have to go through this alone and I'd be honored to support you through those challenging times. Together, we'll focus on your strengths, explore what's meaningful to you, and help you move forward feeling more grounded, empowered, and understood.

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.

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.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
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.
