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 provide individual therapy and facilitate group therapy, with a particular passion for trauma-informed care, supporting both survivors of abuse and individuals working toward accountability and meaningful change. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Master’s in Clinical & Community Mental Health from Western Illinois University. In addition to being a LMHC in Indiana, I am a LCPC and LASOP in Illinois. I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Clinical Psychology (PsyD) at the University of Indianapolis, continuing my clinical and academic growth.

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.

I am Danelle King, MSW, LCSW, and for over 30 years I have been dedicated to walking alongside individuals and couples and families as they navigate life’s challenges. With a natural gift for nurturing and support, I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where my clients can be open and honest without fear of criticism. I believe that healing begins with honesty, and I am gentle in my approach, offering genuine feedback and personalized guidance tailored to each person’s unique circumstances.
My work is focused on helping clients address problematic behaviors, process traumatic experiences, and manage specific mental health diagnoses. I draw not only on professional expertise, but also on my personal experiences of resilience and connection. As a wife and mother to nine wonderful children—three of whom joined our family through adoption from foster care—I understand the complexities of family dynamics, love, and healing. My love for animals also enriches my life and reminds me daily of the importance of joy, balance, and unconditional care.
Faith plays a central role in both my personal life and my work as a therapist. I believe that spirituality can be a powerful source of strength, hope, and renewal. I often integrate faith into therapy, helping them draw on their beliefs as a foundation for healing and growth. I see faith as a guidepost for resilience, compassion, and purpose, and I consider it a privilege to incorporate these values into the therapeutic journey.

I believe every person has a unique path, and my role is to help illuminate possibilities, build on strengths, and support lasting change.

Hi there! I’m Stephanie! I’m passionate about creating a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients feel comfortable being themselves, sharing what they’re experiencing, and working toward meaningful change.
I primarily work with teens and young adults who are navigating anxiety, academic stress, sports performance, peer relationships, family dynamics, self-esteem, motivation, and the many transitions that come with growing into adulthood. I believe therapy should feel collaborative and personalized; not like a one-size-fits-all approach.
My goal is to meet each client where they are while helping them better understand themselves, build confidence, develop practical coping skills, and feel more capable of handling life’s challenges. I use a combination of CBT, solution-focused, person-centered, and motivational interviewing approaches based on each client’s unique needs and goals.

Whether it's the fear of disappointing others, feeling misunderstood, or battling with anxiety and depression, I understand how these emotions can pile up and become unbearable. You might even find yourself resorting to self-harm as a way to cope. It's hard to reach out and put these feelings into words, but you don't have to do it alone—this is my specialty, and I already understand what you're going through.
With my guidance, you'll learn emotion management skills that can help you handle these big emotions and break the cycle.

There's no jumping straight to inpatient care here—I'll teach you what you need to know to stop this and move forward with your life.

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.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana. I earned my Master’s degree from Indiana University Northwest and have been practicing for 7 years. My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem, body image, and major life changes.
I believe in treating the whole person because so much of our mental health is connected to what is happening in our everyday lives. Relationships, family, career, finances, parenting, health, and even spirituality can all impact how we feel and function.
My approach is compassionate, mindfulness-based, and solution-focused. I want therapy to be a space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, work through what may be holding you back, and create meaningful changes that help you feel more balanced, fulfilled, and confident in 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.
