My name is Denise and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I began my adult life as a high school drop-out. After earning my GED, I went on to earn an Associates in Early Childhood Education and an Associates in Human Services. I then went to get my Bachelor of Science in Human Services and then my Master's in Social Work. I am where I am at, because I had someone believe in me more than I believed in myself. I never forget where I came from and how important it is to believe in others, especially when they are having a difficult time believing in themselves.

I am here for your relational needs. I'm your counselor if you want someone who is all about relationships. Relationships can be the most rewarding part of life. They can also be one of the most difficult. Wherever you are in your relationship, I am here to help you thrive. I offer counseling for couples, families and individuals to help with all of life's changes. The reason I focus so much on relationships is because I know the profound effect relationships have on mental health, addiction, trauma. If life is a journey, counseling is a pit stop to overcome issues that arise but relationships are the roads that you navigate to get where you need to go. I can assist by providing support, conflict resolution, and relationship enrichment. I've worked with couples and individuals with relational issues, parenting issues, mental health needs including depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. Thank you for considering me as your counselor. I look forward to meeting you and working alongside you towards your goals.

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.

Stop. Unclench your jaw. Relax your shoulders. Breath. My practice has been focused on decreasing the effects of trauma, depression, and anxiety in both adults and children through a mind and body approach. While working with children and adults there is a focus on the present while relieving symptoms caused by the past. Therapy is a relationship between a provider and client that supports positive change. I have witnessed these changes while working with each of my clients and as a client myself. I truly believe that I can help you and/or your children improve your mood and decrease negative behaviors.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I believe each individual is the expert of their own life, with a unique story, identity, and set of experiences. I recognize that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process, which is why I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other; to meet the distinct needs of every individual, couple, and family I work with. My approach is rooted in the belief that healing and growth occur when clients feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive space where people of all ages—children, young adults, adults, couples, and families; can explore their challenges, develop deeper self-understanding, and strengthen their relationships. I place a strong emphasis on building a trusting therapeutic relationship, and I am committed to offering each person unconditional positive regard, authenticity, and respect as they move toward healing and wholeness.

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.

My approach to my work is very client centered but also engage person to person allowing my clients to feel more comfortable while still creating a therapeutic relationship and environment. I am goal focused and like to always I provide actions and tools for my clients so they are making continuous growth. I have used many tools in my career knowing not everyone connects in the same way and thinking outside the box is vital. In my career 3 of my dogs have worked with me as trained therapy dogs and one of my horses worked with me doing equine therapy. I look at each person as an individual and use their strengths and talents to help them learn to express and walk through life's struggles. I find not everyone is most comfortable with talking or writing so will encourage a client to use a drawing journal to express feelings when that is something they enjoy and feel more confident in using. I am a christian based counselor and will, at client request, use a faith based approach that can add an added support for the client. I am so blessed to have had this as my career and have worked with clients of all ages starting my career on the cancer center a Riley hospital for Children, moving to a locked unit with juvenile offenders ages 5-11, equine assisted therapy for at risk teens, to working with seniors in long term care or living at home.

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? Do you find yourself indulging in certain addictions but don't know why. Are you losing a sense of self or your "why" in life? With my 20+ years of experience, I can adapt the best choice of therapy for you and help you find inner peace and together we can fight to overcome those internal struggles with daily life. I believe together we can change our thoughts, feelings and behaviors so we can experience more positive outcomes in life. Happiness is something we create for ourselves. If you struggle with this I would like the opportunity to explore this with you and better help you understand why. Change starts from within, there is hope and together we can make that happen. I have a gentle but direct way of challenging yourself to help you work toward your inner peace. I provide a safe and secure environment to freely express yourself. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor in Indiana.

You may feel desperate, alone, and misunderstood. You feel like you are floating in the bottom of a lake and cannot see the light above you. Everyday, you feel like you are just going through the motions. If this describes you, then I may be the therapist for you. In my nearly twenty years of experience, I have helped people like you reach their potential and achieve the recovery that they needed. There is no set system or quick fix as others may promise, but I will walk down the road with you. My primary focus is on helping you deal with ambiguity. Often our thoughts and subsequently what we teach ourselves becomes rigid and fairly black and white. Using a pragmatic and authentic approach to therapy I try and help you be okay with things that are beyond your control and work with you to establish yourself as the protagonist in your own story. This is primarily accomplished through conversation and allowing you the client to guide the therapy in the direction it needs to go.

Hello! My name is Amber Moody. I am a licensed mental health counselor. I have been practicing as a mental health counselor for the past 14 years. I graduated in 2012 with my Master's of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Ball State University. I have experience of working with all different populations including people seeking help for depression, anxiety, PTSD/Trauma, LGBTQA+ issues, anger management and much more. I have experience working in a variety of fields including community based counseling, hospital, outpatient and private practice. My counseling approach is Eclectic. With an Eclectic approach to counseling means I am able to integrate multiple techniques from different methods including, client-centered, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), attachment-based, family systems, mindfulness, solution focused, feminst, Gestalt and trauma-focused CBT. My clients can expect to be provided a relaxing, confidential, non-judgmental environment where they can talk about anything. O choose to pursue Mental Health Counseling as a career because I have always been an empathetic person and have a passion to help people. I was born and raised in Indiana where I am a wife and a Mom of three children. My hobbies include reading, video games, being in nature, collecting houseplants and cooking. I am also a music lover. As a prior musician I have grown to have an emotional connection to music. I have used many of the techniques Ive learned through my studies to get through difficult times in my life. I love my job because it allows me flexibility to be a parent and work from home. Nothing makes me more proud of being a counselor than seeing my client's succeed by achieving their goals.

Therapy is a space where you should feel heard, understood, and supported—not judged. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and develop practical tools to navigate life's challenges. I work with individuals, couples, and families experiencing concerns related to anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, emotional regulation, and self-esteem. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques based on your individual needs and goals. For couples, I use Gottman-informed interventions to help partners improve communication, navigate conflict, rebuild connection, and develop healthier relationship patterns. With individual clients, I focus on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns while building healthier coping skills, emotional regulation, and confidence. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you understand what may be keeping you stuck, and work with you toward meaningful, lasting change.

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.
