I am a trauma informed Licensed Clinicial Social Worker (LCSW), specialized in providing compassionate care. My therapeutic style emphasizes creating a safe and supportive environment. I use psychoeducation to ensure therapeutic choices and rationale are understood before you choose. I approach life with a collectivistic mindset and have a passion to help others. Life is hard, I have the priviledge to help others navigate hardship.

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.

I’m a collaborative therapist who believes therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. You’re the expert on your life — I bring tools, perspective, and support — and together we figure out what helps you move forward. I work a lot with trauma, depression, and anxiety, and I know how heavy those experiences can feel. Whether you’re overwhelmed, stuck in negative patterns, carrying past pain, or just exhausted from holding it all together, therapy can be a place where you don’t have to do that alone. We go at your pace, and we focus on what actually feels useful to you. My approach blends CBT, DBT, and EMDR, along with other strategies depending on your needs. Some days that might look like learning concrete coping skills, other days it might mean processing deeper experiences, or just having a space to untangle what’s going on. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model — therapy should fit you. I’m also a strong LGBTQI+ affirming ally and am committed to creating a space that is safe, inclusive, and judgment-free. All parts of you are welcome here. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build tools that actually work in real life, and feel more steady, confident, and in control of where your life is headed.

If you struggle with anxious attachment, people pleasing, setting boundaries, feeling triggered, anger, anxiety, depression, co-dependence, parenting issues, and ADD/ ADHD, then I want to work with you. These symptoms and attachment style are often related to each other and often related to similar childhood experiences of inconstant or abusive/neglectful caregivers. (ADD and ADHD is not cause by caregivers, however, when it goes undiagnosed in children, there is s strong correlation to symptoms described above)

I see my role as helping people to identify and cultivate strengths in themselves, and strengths in their relationships; trusting that all of us bring the best we can to the problems of our lives and knowing that when someone is courageous enough to seek assistance, they are seeking to be better. I believe that as individuals we have the choice of becoming more than a trauma, more than a number, more than a victim. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

When people experience trauma and stress, there is a tendency to develop a zoomed-in view of the problem and even blame themselves for the root of the problem. I am here to help you develop a more helpful and realistic outlook and note available solutions to what is going on. I have education and experience treating clients who have gone through trauma, and clients who have symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Indiana. I received my Master's Degree from Indiana University, my Bachelor's Degree from Loyola University-Chicago and have been practicing for 14 years. For 12 years I worked at a Community Mental Health Center where I provided individual and group therapy to adults on an outpatient basis, along with crisis management. I also provided clinical supervision to a team of social workers and mental health counselors. I primarily work with adults who are struggling with stress management, anxiety, depression and past trauma.

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.

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 MI (Motivational Interviewing). 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!

Families today are under a great deal of pressure, and many parents and children feel overwhelmed as a result. When stress builds over time, relationships can suffer—especially within families. I believe understanding these patterns is one of the most important steps toward meaningful change. I bring over 38 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I offer a supportive, strength-based space where people can slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to move forward with greater clarity and confidence. I work with ADHD, anxiety, depression, school-related concerns, divorce, and family relationship challenges. My approach is thoughtful and direct while remaining respectful and collaborative. I view children’s struggles within the context of their families and believe lasting change happens when caregivers are actively involved and supported.
