I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with several years of experience providing trauma-informed therapy. My work mainly focuses on helping clients understand and manage the effects of trauma, chronic stress, and overwhelming life events. As a military spouse, I have firsthand insight into how prolonged uncertainty, transitions, and cumulative stress impact individuals, which informs my compassionate and grounded approach to care.
I use evidence-based, trauma-focused methods to help clients develop emotional regulation, boost self-awareness, and regain safety and stability. Many clients face anxiety, relationship issues, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or trauma-related patterns. Therapy is a collaborative process, carefully paced to let clients participate comfortably without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
Earlier in my career, I mainly worked with children and adolescents. Currently, I focus on supporting adults and couples, while still working with teen clients. This experience helps me understand how early experiences, attachment styles, and relationship dynamics can affect current functioning and relationships.
I am dedicated to fostering a supportive and respectful therapeutic environment where clients can freely explore their experiences, acquire practical coping skills, and progress toward healing at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.
Feeling stuck in your career, relationships, or life direction? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
I work with individuals who are ready to better understand themselves, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful, lasting change. Using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, clarify what you truly want, and build realistic, achievable goals that move you forward.
Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. As you grow and your needs evolve, our work can shift with you. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools for real-life change.
If you’re ready to move beyond feeling stuck and start creating the life you want, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.
I am a Licensed Mental Health therapist in the state of Indiana and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio with over 15 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, sexual maladaptive behaviors, sexual abuse, neglect, OCD, PTSD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse.
My therapy style is warm, safe, and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered, strength-based, and motivational interviewing. In addition, I specialize with working with adolescents/youth with sexually maladaptive behaviors and those that have been sexually abused. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you

Hello. I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and I'm also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Illinois. I have worked in the field of Social Work for 25 years at the Bachelor's level, including case management for at-risk youth, CPS investigations and medical social work. I received my Master's of Science in Social Work from the University of Louisville and have been practicing five years. At this time, I provide individual therapy to adults dealing with anxiety, depression and trauma among other issues. We work to recognize triggers/barriers to successful living and then learn to effectively reframe these in order to be a better version of yourself.
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.
Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana. I have worked in the mental health field for 20 years in a variety of settings. I currently work individually with adolescents and adults of all ages who are struggling with a variety of concerns. Some of the issues I work most frequently with include depression, anxiety, women’s issues, post-partum depression/anxiety, trauma, stress management, support through life transitions, supporting care-givers and parents, grief, Bipolar Disorder, and Adjustment Disorders. I use an eclectic approach to help clients work through their problems with the primary treatment method used being Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Life can be so challenging, and sometimes we can seem to lose our way – getting lost in the spinning, the confusion, the uncertainty. Emotions can feel like they spiral or swing so rapidly that it can feel difficult to find stable ground, let alone direction for our lives.
Maybe you have experienced this – that shift between anxiety & depression & irritability – that sense of feeling lost or struggling to see a way forward in your life.
Working with adults and seniors over the past 15 years, in inpatient settings, intensive outpatient treatment, and individual therapy, I am an empathetic ear and a believer that growth and change are always possible, no matter how lost we may feel.
Mrs. Whiteside has worked in various mental health settings maintaining her unwavering focus on mothers and small children. As a perinatal psychotherapist, Mrs. Whiteside works with mothers and/or families who are struggling with perinatal mental illness during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Mrs. Whiteside is currently a social work doctoral student at The University of Louisville researching the impact of perinatal mood disorders, as evidence indicates that depression and other mood disorders in parents can have a harmful impact on children, including cognitive difficulties, insecure attachment, and behavioral problems.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Indiana. I am a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, and Trauma-Focused care for over 14 years, I have had the privilege to witness countless number of individuals reach their personal goals and aspirations beyond their original expectations. As a therapist, I place a strong emphasis on the value of providing a safe space for all my clients that promotes personal healing, growth, self-discovery, and empowerment for them to ultimately create, and sustain, meaningful changes that improve their overall quality of life.
I became a therapist because I believe people are worth fighting for — including the parts of themselves they've written off, hidden away, or learned to manage instead of heal. That conviction drives everything I do.
I work with women, teen girls, and couples, and I've spent over seven years walking alongside people in some of the hardest seasons of their lives. What I've learned is that the struggles that bring people to therapy rarely start where they think they do. So we go deeper — not to dredge up the past for its own sake, but because real, lasting change usually requires understanding what's actually driving things.
I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) as the foundation of my work. In plain terms, that means I'm not here to fix you or diagnose what's wrong with you. I'm here to help you understand yourself — all of yourself, including the parts that feel difficult or contradictory — with a lot more compassion and a lot less judgment.
My faith is part of who I am, and it shapes how I see every person I work with: as someone with real worth, real capacity for change, and a story that isn't over. How much that shows up in our sessions is entirely up to you. Some clients want faith woven throughout. Others just want to know their whole self is welcome. Either way, you're in the right place.
I'm currently offering telehealth sessions in Indiana and Michigan.
I am a LCSW with several years of experience in the mental health field. I also have experience with school based social work. I look forward to meeting with new clients and making our time together a place where you feel safe to be your authentic self while being able to grow in your mental health journey. If you have questions, please reach out.

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?

So, here we are. Life’s a bit of a mess, isn’t it? Maybe it feels like you’re starring in a horror movie, except no one handed you the script. I’m Kandace Barkham, and I help people like you. Those who are over the empty platitudes and ready for real change. I have an LCSW/LCADC. I hold a BSW and an MSSW from the Kent School. If you’re looking for a therapist who’s going to sit back, nod silently, and sprinkle some feel-good phrases your way… well, that’s not me. I’m here to help you actually get unstuck, and yes, we might even laugh at the absurdity of it all along the way.
Let’s cut through the nonsense: trauma, addiction, mental health issues. they suck. But you know what sucks more? Pretending like everything’s fine and letting them control your life. Together, we’ll work through the heavy stuff. We’ll get into the mess, sort it out, and figure out how you can finally breathe a little easier. Therapy with me isn’t some endless loop of “and how does that make you feel?” It’s a collaborative process where I bring my expertise to the table, and you bring your courage to face what’s been holding you back.
Having worked in myriad settings already since getting my LSW in 2018, and having been in helping professions since age 19, the reason I still love this line of work is due to the change one can bring to people's Worlds, in a way they may have never thought possible. I am client-centered and focused on making it so my clients don't need therapy anymore, by freeing them of mental maladies that many decide to internalize, instead of cure.
I've been in the behavioral health field since 1999 and practiced as a therapist since 2006. I'm trauma-informed, neurodivergent affirming, and strengths-based in my approaches.

I'm also the parent of an autistic teen, so I know first-hand the challenges parents go through in trying to do what's best for their child and not always knowing what that is.

Hi, I'm Britta Neinast, a licensed clinical social worker. I have years of professional and personal experience understanding anxiety and mental health struggles. Many of us are crippled with anxiety and self-doubt. Despite messages and advice, we still feel misunderstood and alone. I believe we are looking at the problem of anxiety incorrectly.
The conventional wisdom is learning how to “cope" and fight your tension. I believe this approach is misleading because it gives the impression there is something wrong with you. Anxiety is your friend and has a purpose. When you listen more to what anxiety is trying to teach you, it will make sense.
If persistent avoidance or fear is holding you back, I can help. I’m Tara, a therapist with special expertise in helping clients process trauma and make breakthroughs in life. I’m a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with experience working with veterans, ex-foster kids, and other survivors with PTSD and its associated symptoms. No matter how small your trauma might seem, if it affected you, it’s worth exploring. I use Exposure Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy to help my clients embrace all the possibilities that trauma has been denying them.

I’m Phillip, a therapist dedicated to helping people grow into the version of themselves they’ve been working toward—often while navigating heavy pressure. My background as an educator and counselor has fueled my passion for supporting others as they untangle complex expectations and begin to cultivate a value-fueled, authentic life. I understand first hand the struggle of struggling to 'be successful' while also exploring the answers to 'who am I?' As the son of Chinese immigrants from Mexico, raised in Mississippi, I personally understand the challenge of living between cultures and the "liminal spaces" where identity can feel uncertain.

Hi, I'm Sophie. I'm an independently licensed therapist providing virtual therapy for adults in Florida, Ohio, and Indiana, and I accept most major insurance plans.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, constantly overthinking, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together, you're not alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship challenges, trauma, chronic pain, infertility or IVF, eating disorders, or a major life transition, therapy can provide a space to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving toward the life you want.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should feel like a conversation with someone who truly listens while also helping you build practical tools you can use outside of session. Together, we'll work to understand patterns that are keeping you stuck, strengthen coping skills, improve emotional regulation, build healthier relationships and boundaries, and increase confidence in navigating life's challenges.
One area I'm especially passionate about is supporting individuals living with chronic pain, infertility, IVF, and other medical conditions that affect mental health. These experiences can impact every part of life—including relationships, identity, self-esteem, and daily functioning—and you don't have to navigate them alone.
I earned my B.A. in Psychology and M.Ed. in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from Florida Atlantic University and have more than 11 years of experience helping adults create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout the therapy process.

Christian therapists who truly “get it” aren’t always easy to find. The good news? You don't have to choose between therapy and your faith. I offer a faith-affirming space for Christian women to explore their mental and emotional health without having to set aside their beliefs. Whether you're working through anxiety, past trauma, relationship challenges, or spiritual burnout: therapy can be a powerful step toward healing and wholeness. Together, we’ll integrate your faith and mental health in a way that feels authentic, grounded, and empowering.
Hi! My name is Cassie, and I'm a Christian, faith-based therapist located in the sunny (and sometimes rainy!) state of Florida. The questions posed above speak to challenges many of us are regularly faced with, but may find it difficult to speak about. Instead, we may find ourselves harboring feeling of shame and guilt which blocks us from pursuing and receiving the help we need.
Well, here’s the good news! Therapy with me is conducted within a safe, judgment-free space, where I provide opportunities for you to face those challenges and express those feelings. . I believe in the power of faith to guide healing, and I am honored to walk alongside individuals who desire therapy that aligns with their beliefs. At each stage of treatment, we’ll collaborate to assess and engage in a way which best fits you.
With over six (6) years of professional experience, and a host of treatment methods to rely on, you can rest assured in my ability to meet you uniquely in your place of need.
Ultimately, my desire is to help you reach a place of freedom and peace, where you can begin experiencing incremental yet impactful improvements to your overall wellbeing so your life and relationships can bear the fruit they were always meant to.
Hello, and welcome! I am Sara Key. I have spent 11 years in the social services field with the last four as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, relationship challenges, and emotional regulation difficulties.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgement. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where meaningful growth can occur.
My goal is not only to help clients feel heard, but also to provide practical tools and strategies that can be used in everyday life. Together, we can build on your strengths, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward creating lasting positive change.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy traveling, attending live music events and art festivals, spending time in nature, with my dogs, and my family. I believe maintaining balance, connection, and meaningful experiences is an important part of overall well-being, and I encourage clients to discover what brings fulfillment and joy to their own lives.
I believe that when someone seeks therapy, they are reaching out because they want to move forward, feel less stuck, or find new ways to live well. I hold deep conviction that a meaningful, valued life is possible for anyone—even in the presence of disability, chronic pain or illness, depression, anxiety, trauma, or overwhelming life stress. I see psychotherapy as a collaborative space where we can discover the right pace and rhythm for facing those challenges: sometimes steady and gentle, sometimes more active and focused, always tailored to the person in front of me.
Hi! My name is Bianca, I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent over a decade in the lives of people who needed someone in their corner. From community centers to classrooms to living rooms, I've worked alongside children, families, teenage girls finding their voice, kids who had every reason not to trust another adult, and everyday people just trying to make it through. That range shaped me. I work with children, teens, young adults, and families carrying trauma, transitions, and the weight of just trying to hold it together — and I'm committed to making sure cost is never the reason someone doesn't get support. People heal when they feel safe and truly seen. That's the work.

Hello! I began my social work journey in 2006 and have been working in the mental health field since I obtained my MSW in 2008. As a clinical social worker I have thoroughly enjoyed the privilege of helping individuals identify and address many mental health concerns and move towards the life they most desire. I am passionate about addressing the stigma around addictions and serious mental illness and I believe the best way to begin any mental health journey of recovery is with compassion and understanding. I work from a cognitive-behavioral perspective and I use a strengths-based orientation of empowerment to foster growth and progress. I feel that we are already our best selves-we just need some help letting go of the survival skills we've taken on to get through the toughest times in our lives. I have spent several years working exclusively with homeless veterans and individuals struggling with addiction, and this has given me additional perspective and insight into the needs of some of our most vulnerable populations. I am an advocate, an accountability partner, an empath and your greatest cheerleader. I'm excited to help you rediscover your best self and to claim the life you deserve.
