Female Therapists in Elkhart, IN

My approach to therapy is to walk along side my client in a caring and nonjudgmental manner. I believe everyone has a story and when we listen we understand and are better able to assist with their emotional hurts. Everyone has struggles but it's much easier to work through them with a supportive hand. I am here to help you recognize your strengths and build on them until they are more prevalent than your distress. My education started with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology from Indiana University and a Master's in Social Work from Simmons School of Social Work.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with a variety of ages and challenges. Whether you are working to heal from trauma, experiencing mental health struggles (like depression, anxiety, or PTSD), sorting out relationship issues, exploring yourself, or wanting to make a positive change- I am here to provide support in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Therapy can be helpful in many ways and is highly individualized- there is no "one size fits all" approach; I try to walk alongside you to help you reach your goals and work on what is important to you because you are the expert on you/your family!

It can be difficult to manage “all the things” and making time for oneself can be easily sacrificed. While it is understandable, it can be considered an act of resistance to set aside place for your whole self and healing. One hour, a place for you to show up, to rediscover the self, parts changed and altered over time; explore the “stuff” in your soul. Therapists, couples, and women are specialties of mine. If you are seeking couples counseling, it can be difficult to grow into your full, whole selves together, but it is also worth the hard work to show up as your whole self, and honor your partner’s whole self.

Ever feel like you're carrying the world on your shoulders, thinking you have to handle everything alone, only to feel suffocated by it all? It's a common struggle, believe me. But here's the scoop: counseling isn't about getting a to-do list or being labeled "weak" for reaching out. It's about finding a cozy spot to unpack what's on your mind and in your heart. It's a sanctuary where you can just be you, no judgments or expectations. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed, know this: seeking help is a brave move towards healing. You're not alone in this journey.

Dr. Viktor E. Frankl's words, "In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice." embodies much of how I approach each of my clients: to help each of them find meaning and purpose through that which brings them to my office. Whether I am counseling a struggling married couple, an adolescent dealing with depression, or someone experiencing chronic mental illness, I feel that each individual can become whole if they are able to embrace, accept and transform their suffering.
