Solution-Oriented Therapy with Empathy and Kindness....The problems and dilemmas that you bring to therapy: These are the sparks that will propel you forward towards your healing. We discuss and explore your issues, and then we integrate what you learn into your daily life. We move as slowly or as quickly as you are comfortable with, in an atmosphere that is safe and contained, creating a path to hope, insight and personal strength. After 30 years helping others heal from and handle difficult situations as well as reach their dreams, it is clear to me that taking action steps - even tiny steps - is key to moving forward.

The decision to seek therapy can feel difficult and intimidating. Many hesitate to reach out for fear of judgment and shame. I welcome all parts of you and want for you a space where you can feel less guarded and more open to explore. Through compassionate guidance and exploration, we strive to restore broken bonds with self and others. My approach is casual, compassionate and non judgmental. I love rooting for people and all people in all bodies are welcome here.

At times we are faced with circumstances that feel painful & unfair. You have grief over the loss of an important person, yet others tell you, “it was their time” instead of offering condolences. You’re grieving the loss of a loved pet and people say, “it’s just a cat” or “you can always get another dog” completely dismissing the relationship you had with your companion. If you have been through trauma, you can begin to question everything you once believed in, trying to make sense of your world. We all need support to grow through what we go through. My role can be to walk the journey with you so that you don’t have to go it alone.

Feeling heard and understood is an important experience in therapy. Within a non-judgmental and supportive environment, my clients increase personal insight and explore new ways of understanding current situations. In addition to increasing personal awareness, our work might focus on ways to respond differently in challenging situations causing stress. My practice is ideal for those interested in a depth-oriented therapy that goes beyond symptom focus and looks to integrate and enrich self-understanding to create healthy, adaptive narratives about oneself and one's situation.

Having done my own counseling I know that it is important to find the right fit. I have been a therapist/counselor since 1992 when I began my training at Purdue University. I specialize in marriage/family therapy, addiction, anger management, and sexual issues. I have 25+ years of experience treating sexual addiction. My overall goal is to "work myself out of a job" by empowering clients to work through core issues, gain needed insights and tools, and make behavioral changes which allow for more success and fulfillment both personally and professionally. I strive to create a safe space and give hope and direction from the start.

I enjoy working with all areas of mental health care including mood disorders, attention disorders, substance use and recovery, trauma and PTSD, as well as many others. As a former Air Force firefighter/medic, I greatly enjoy working with first responders (police/firefighters/EMT) and veterans, along with my general psychiatry patients.

I am accepting new clients. Courtney James-Atkins is a dedicated graduate student at Midwestern University. My ideal client is someone facing significant life challenges, such as trauma, family conflict, or identity issues. They might struggle with emotional regulation, forming healthy attachments, or navigating complex social environments. These individuals often come from diverse backgrounds and may have experienced systemic disadvantages or personal adversities that have impacted their sense of self and their relationships.

Throughout life we will all experience difficulties and need someone to guide and support us through these times. I am no stranger to this and I know how much courage and strength it takes to reach out for help. Whatever situation you are in, I would love to help you find relief and healing.

My work with clients is centered in resolving what is missing, or has been left unmet, for whatever reason. Unmet relational and emotional needs can interfere with a loving relationship with oneself, and with those we care about. Both EFT and EMDR provide wonderful tools for this work of emotional and relational repair. Your story matters to me, and so does the pace that feels best for you. Together we will explore and repair what has been missing so you can enjoy your relationships more deeply. Whether you are new to therapy or coming back to it for a deeper layer of work, I would love to meet you and hear your story.
