Congratulations on seeking therapy! Most people who seek therapy or counseling report that they experience an improvement in mood and anxiety. Timing is everything and I can generally see you within 48 hours. Unfortunately, many folks have to wait weeks to see a therapist. I believe I am easy to talk to and approachable. Therapists are excellent listeners and I will be honest with you, rather than just agreeing or dismissing your opinions. If you see me and we establish a plan, you will be able to determine how much you need and for how long. Since most of what I am doing involves Telehealth, I ask that you cancel ahead of time if you cannot meet per schedule. I will do this as well. As your therapist, I will: Respect your privacy Respect your schedule Respect your opinions and values Respect the severity and urgency of your difficulties Make myself available when you need assistance Help you find answers and solutions rather than feeling “stuck"

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Indiana. I obtained my master’s degree from Indiana Wesleyan University, and I have over 10 years of experience in the social services and mental health fields. I believe in the quiet strength we all carry—especially when life has pushed us to the edge. I’ve spent years walking beside individuals as they navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, stress, and moments that feel like too much. I create a space where people feel safe enough to bend, process, release—and strong enough to bounce back and rise. You won’t find judgment here. Just presence, compassion, and a steady guide through the work of healing. Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain, I meet you where you are—and we walk forward, one step at a time.

Hi there, my name is Anna, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Indiana. Taking that first step to acknowledging that you need help, is the hardest one, so finding a counselor you are able to connect with shouldn't be. If you're looking for a counselor who is laid back and easy to speak with we may be a good fit. I believe being able to talk things out with someone who is open to hearing anything you may have to say and not passing judgment is often times needed when working on healing. I am open to working and discussing whatever it is that you need, all while remaining respectful and nonjudgmental. I work to keep the mood light when needed but also provide the space to experience emotions without shame. During those times of processing I like to utilize the last few minutes of session to debrief, wind down, and possibly experience some laughter prior to ending session so you are able to leave feeling better.

I'm Douglas A. Dixon, MA, LMHC, a licensed mental health counselor and retired veteran with a passion for helping others find healing, clarity, and resilience. I bring a unique blend of professional training and lived experience to my work, offering a compassionate and grounded approach to therapy. My background in the military has shaped my understanding of high-stress environments, trauma, and the need for emotional strength, making me especially attuned to the needs of veterans, first responders, and trauma survivors. At Maple Grove Mental Health, LLC, I provide therapy for individuals facing a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, personality disorders, and life transitions. I specialize in working with clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or burdened by the weight of past experiences or persistent negative thoughts. My therapeutic style is warm, respectful, and collaborative. I believe that healing is possible for everyone, and I tailor each session to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether you're struggling with racing thoughts, emotional numbness, low self-esteem, or difficulty in relationships, my goal is to help you gain insight, learn new tools, and build a life that feels more manageable and meaningful. I combine evidence-based practices like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to support lasting change. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about reconnecting you to your strengths, values, and inner resilience. Together, we’ll work toward greater emotional balance, clarity, and peace of mind. If you're ready to take the next step, I’m here to walk with you through the process. You're not alone—and you don't have to carry it all by yourself.

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 the state. 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 UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid?

Yes! If you use UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid 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 a specific issue?

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.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

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 to expect during your first 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.
