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.

I have always found that the macabre and fantasy worlds offer a strange sense of peace- maybe because they make our real-world struggles feel a bit more manageable. In my free time, you can find me watching horror movies or reading a fantasy novel. I am a reformed hyper-independent woman, as well as a teen who was labeled “hateful, mean and problematic" before anyone took the time to peel back those layers and discover WHY those walls were present, so I know the exhausting hustle of pretending you have it all figured out. I don’t always have my shit together, but I’ve done the work to know how to easily get back on track. I have a big personality, but I have learned to embrace my “much-ness,” and like to often remind myself with my daily mantra that “Nothing is ever that serious.” I exercise my anger at the current state of the world by walking 2.5 miles everyday with my 4 dogs and blasting my feminine rage playlist.

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.

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.

Hello, I am glad you are here! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 30 years of experience dedicated to the art and science of healing. Throughout my career, I have remained driven by a single belief: that every person deserves a safe, compassionate space to navigate life’s heaviest chapters. As a pioneer in telemental health with 15 years of experience in distance counseling, I have mastered the ability to bridge the digital gap, creating a therapeutic bond that is as deep and genuine as any in-person connection. My professional background is diverse, ranging from supporting families and parents to providing expert trauma care through EMDR and CPT. At my core, I am a Person-Centered therapist. This means I don't just see a diagnosis; I see a person with unique strengths and a story worth hearing. Whether I am helping a client move past trauma, guiding a parent through the complexities of raising a teen, or mentoring the next generation of therapists, I bring a steady, non-judgmental presence and a wealth of clinical wisdom to every conversation. I am here to be a grounded, expert partner on your journey toward balance and peace.

Hi! For over 10 years, I’ve walked alongside children, teens, and adults who felt stuck in places they never meant to camp - whether that’s addiction, anxiety, depression, or the lingering effects of trauma. Change rarely happens all at once; it unfolds gradually, step by step, often across uneven ground. I see my role as helping you find your bearings, lighten what you’ve been carrying, and building skills to navigate challenges with steadiness and clarity. I offer therapy that is steady and relational, grounded in genuine connection. We’ll look beneath the surface at the stories and patterns that have shaped your path so far, with warmth and consistent support along the way.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Indiana rather than a city like Indianapolis?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Indiana. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Indiana from Fort Wayne to Evansville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Indiana.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Trauma and PTSD?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Trauma and PTSD, is filtering therapists in Indiana that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

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.
