Female Therapists in Frankfort, IN

There are so many challenges in life; difficult life transitions, traumatic events, relationship issues, and instability that negatively impact one's mental, emotional, and physical health. If you feel that you need assistance with managing the stressors of daily life, I'm glad you are looking for a therapist. You have taken the first step to positive change in your life! I would greatly enjoy the pleasure of partnering with you! I work with all ages with a wide variety of presenting problems. I specialize in child, adolescent, and early adulthood counseling while partnering with the family to promote continuous positive change.

Coping with the twists and turns of life can be difficult for anyone of any age. At times we may need someone to help us process those twists and turns, and teach us how to cope. I have over 10 years of experience working with adolescents and young adults, but I don't have a preference for any particular age. My ideal client is someone who is curious about themselves and are willing to work toward flourishing on their own, someday, without me. My goal is to help provide a safe space for you to grow. I believe that the center of a great counseling relationship is trust and judgement free.

Teaching people how to navigate life's challenges is my passion! I work with children, adolescents, and young adults. Having experience as both a school counselor and a special education teacher, I am familiar with the challenges that students face, both socially and academically.

Let’s work together to reduce what-ifs and the power they have. If you’re looking for a therapist who can crack a joke and also shine light on the heavy stuff you’re in the right place. I have immediate Telehealth openings.

Feeling stressed out, overwhelmed, depressed or anxious? Struggling with an addiction, unhealthy relationships, self-destructive behaviors or just not living the life you want? You don't have to walk through life's challenges alone. Let me help you grow, discover your strengths and take control of your emotions and choices. You can't change the past but you do have the power within you to determine your future. I offer low-cost counseling to make services more accessible to everyone.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges a problem exists, even if they don’t quite know what it is. The source of that issue can be discovered and processed through therapy, leaving the client with effective tools and skills to cope with and manage their emotions.

Some of my specialty areas are Anxiety, Depression, Trauma and PTSD, Self-esteem, OCD, Domestic Violence, and Child Emotional Neglect. Are you struggling with self-esteem, self-trust, shame, and guilt, which is why change does not occur? I provide psychoeducation to all clients to help them recognize why change is so difficult and understand how the mind works. An ideal client takes notes and follows through on exercises throughout the week. There are 160 hours in a week, and as a therapist, I only see you 1 hour a week, which means work outside of a therapy session is key to making positive changes in your life.

My ideal client would be someone who is committed to their healing journey and willing to reach their mental health and personal goals. My clients would be ones who may have anxiety, depression, substance use/abuse issues, and crises.

My ideal client would be vulnerable yet aware in the beginning. They would be open to learning about therapy options. They would also have many questions, including sharing their fears regarding therapy. My ideal client would also be prepared to complete homework assignments and truly engage in each session. During the therapeutic sessions, I would learn what each emotion looks like for my client and how it impacts their lives. My ideal client's growth is evident in each session that they participate in, and they never give up on them.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerne as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

I am looking for a client who is motivated to make changes, may be struggling with depression or anxiety, or may even have some trauma that needs to be addressed. The ideal client would be ready to take the needed steps to make progress.

I prefer to work with adults and older adolescents struggling with addictions, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I have a vast amount of experience working in the field of trauma. Due to my experience working in community mental health, I also work well with those with intense mental health and substance abuse treatment needs. I have worked both inpatient and outpatient experiences, resulting in my flexibility to help stabilize in a crisis and to work with individuals at any level. A client who desires to accept partnership and engage in being open to change is the most ideal client.

As a therapist, I am most excited to see clients motivated to explore their unknown strengths, widen their horizons, increase their abilities to make informed decisions and lead a life of meaning as they define it. Everyone I have worked with brings to therapy a foundation upon which to grow. Regardless of the problem, an enhanced sense of self is possible. Instilling hope of something better in life is one of my greatest motivations, and assisting others in achieving their goals drew me to this profession.

I specialize in helping those with anxiety, depression, & relationship issues. Whether it is a relational, work, school, or family issue, talking about it with someone often aids in clarity and change. I want to help those individuals/families who are struggling to make sense of the chaos, look for understanding insight, and make those changes that will help them to start feeling more hopeful and excited about life again.

My ideal client would be someone who is geared towards helping themselves and needing guidance on how to do so. Someone who has a grasp on the importance of the client putting in the work to truly help heal themselves but needing assistance ensuring they are doing things in a healthy and emotionally intelligent fashion. Talk therapy is very important for clients who even just want to come and vent, which I believe helps the mind unclutter.

I appreciate someone with an open heart and a willingness to explore their inner self. I value individuals who are ready to engage and connect in meaningful conversations. I know it can be hard to take the first step for help, and look for someone who is committed to their own growth and willing to collaborate in their goals. Trust, honesty, and a desire to change create a supportive connecting environment where healing and transformation can take place.

My ideal client is someone who struggles with anxiety, depression, and or post-traumatic stress disorder. This person may need help processing previous traumatic events or navigating a current event. They may need help identifying coping skills and implementing mindfulness activities into their daily routine. This person may need assistance learning communication and emotional regulation skills. My ideal client is motivated to change and desires to grow as a person/couple/family.

I have already counseled my ideal client. I worked with a client who came to me in her most significant time of need. She was ready to put in work and wanted to develop. She was diagnosed with Bipolar I and had several suicide attempts. She could externalize her mania and use fitness and wellness to push through her episodes. She is happy and healthy and uses her experiences to help others. My services involve psychotherapy using techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), with a trauma-informed framework.

My ideal client is someone who wants to actively pursue new paths to find their true, healthy self. Ideally, ready to do the work. I am here to challenge cognitive distortions. I will be a partner in brainstorming issues and goals. Hard work from the client and support from an intuitive counselor will clear the path to the answers within.
