Gambling Therapists in Carmel, IN

There may come a time when you find yourself at your wit’s end, unable to find a solution for the troubles life has thrown your way. After all, we should be able to solve our own problems, right? For many of us, the decision to call a therapist is the last thing on our list as it can feel like admitting weakness, but it takes courage to make that call.

No one schedules therapy for grins. Often people come in feeling so uncomfortable that they are ready to put in some hard and sometimes humbling efforts to make changes to how they think, feel and behave. I hope to provide education and guidance for those ready for change but don't know exactly how to. Change is a long and arduous process of self reflection, and not a quick fix or 10 easy steps. Taking on this challenge can be a life changing decision, so it is important to choose your provider carefully.

Sometimes we get stuck and feel trapped by our experiences related to substance use, addictive thinking, trauma, anxiety, depression and other addictive or high risk behaviors. If this sounds like you, I would like to help you manage these experiences and empower you to break through the challenges associated with your personal experience. I would like the opportunity to help you build up and enhance your strengths, minimize and plan for your limitations, and give you hope and opportunities to make the changes you desire.

Would you like to thrive in your life, rather than just do your best to survive? I believe that most people routinely tolerate high levels of stress and begin to feel hopeless for far too long before they reach out for support. You could struggle from a change in sleep patterns, feeling overwhelmed, increased anxiety, fighting with family and friends, irritability most days, and feeling disconnected or unhappy with your life. In fact, many people try to survive life this way. I believe that even one of these symptoms is enough reason to seek support.

The clients that I see are struggling with how to get and give the love they want and need. Most clients that I work with have a deep desire to feel heard and understood in their intimate relationships. Some clients become lost and struggle with anxiety and depression when feelings of shame, guilt and abandonment come into play. They need someone to help them understand their pain and walk with them as they transform their lives.

I am a licensed therapist with a Masters in Social Work. My degree has given me the fundamentals necessary to embark on the journey of becoming a licensed mental health therapist.

It also helped me to recognize the appropriate way of dealing with people and helping them without making them feel uncomfortable. Making sure my client’s understand their own problems properly while involving them in preparation for a plan of action is a goal I as a therapist strive for.

Have you ever wondered, "Who am I? Whose life is this?" Have you asked yourself, "What is my purpose?" These are questions I love exploring with clients, whether individually, within a relationship, or with entire families. These questions can leave you feeling lost or hopeless, and miserable. But change is possible. Perhaps counseling hasn't worked in the past. Hypnotherapy or holistic wellness may be another option in your search for yourself.

Hi, I'm Lindsey! Is there someone in your life (spouse/significant other, parent, sibling, friend, co-worker, neighbor) whose behavior has you questioning your own reality & sanity? Do you live, or have lived, with someone who is addicted to alcohol, drugs, sex, porn, food, video games, shopping etc? Or someone whom you suspect may have a personality disorder? Do you find yourself walking on eggshells around them? Are you having trouble recalling a time when life seemed "normal"? Do your friends & family mean well but don't understand how best to help and support you?

Are you feeling “stressed out” and overwhelmed, or concerned that your relationship may be on “life support”? Are you struggling to overcome a history of physical, emotional, or sexual trauma?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you have made the right choice by being here. I know this is difficult. You’ve likely been debating seeking help for months if not years.
