Domestic Abuse Therapists in Indianapolis, IN

Accepting New Clients! I specialize in working with complex trauma, all forms of addictions, and learning to navigate difficult relationships. I understand what it feels like to feel lost and alone in the world with your struggles. I approach my therapy sessions as being a guide to your own healing. I believe we are all capable of healing ourselves by tapping into resources just beneath the surface. I assist in helping you find your strength to living a happy and productive life.

Our approach is to view the work of counseling as a dynamic process in which counselor and client work together towards helping the client better understand and cope with the problems of day-to-day living, and to connect with those inner resources and strengths that will lead to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Kentucky. I specialize in couples' work and sexuality, and also have extensive experience with depression/anxiety, ADHD and trauma. Clinical style is client-centered, solution-focused and reality based, with a certain dose of humor. I also offer EMDR therapy. Straight and LGBTQ communities are welcome. Fee ranges from $80-100, with limited sliding scale fee available for some circumstances. Most insurance plans accepted.

I work specifically with adult survivors of trauma and focus on trauma responses.

There are times when we experience life's challenges as overwhelming. We use the skills we have employed in the past and the results have not been what we desired. I see therapy as an opportunity to validate your efforts and to offer additional and sometimes alternative ways of perceiving and doing. Often there are other ways of working toward balance and success and now you have courageously and with empowerment taken the first step to begin this work. Congratulations!! I look forward to being with you on this journey.

I love my job because it's not about me. It's about coming alongside you on your journey in life. It's about getting the right counseling fit for you, even if that means its not me. It means helping you sort through what's happening in your life. I work with individuals, couples, families, and teens who are experiencing life challenges of all kinds. Two areas of importance to me are couples in relationship distress and families who have a family member or child with a developmental disability. I have a child with Down Syndrome and a deep understanding of how disability can impact individuals and families.

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.

Do you feel stuck or worn down? Do you want to overcome the roadblocks that are standing in your way? Is there something that is holding you back from experiencing authentic joy? Therapy is a great first step. Therapy is an amazing way to gain insight, learn ways to challenge distorted thoughts, learn relaxation techniques, and develop new coping skills.

Do you often feel exhausted and unmotivated? Do you experience a sense of emptiness or a yearning for something different, without knowing exactly what you're missing? Do you grapple with feelings of loneliness, anger, anxiety, or depression? If you wake up each day with a sense of dread, you're not alone. Many people come to me with similar issues. To address these complex challenges, I use a tailored approach that combines insight, curiosity, and dedication in my treatment plans.

My therapeutic purpose is committed to helping people suffering from everyday life-stressors such as relationship problems, family conflicts, work issues, behavior problems in children and adolescents as well as more complex mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. My goal is to help others find empowerment and self-determination through solutions such as self-care, self-acceptance and effective modalities for change to help resolve problems. My services are aimed at meeting each individual where they are currently at in their process of changing and growing towards self-improvement.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in trauma work, stress management, education and regulation of mental health symptoms/diagnosis, chemical dependence, and development of healthy interpersonal relationships.

Are you asking yourself "Why can't I get past this?" or thinking "I want the pain to stop and to get my life back." Do the nightmares keep you from getting sleep? Feel worthless or like it was your fault? You may be feeling alone and think no one could ever understand. Are you trying to push through life but feel like you are constantly reliving the worst moments of your life? You deserve to be happy and safe.

As the parent of a struggling tween, teen, or young adult do you sometimes wonder what you can do to help them feel better? I have a passion for working with pre-teens, teens, young adults, and their families struggling with a wide variety of issues. My areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity issues, and relationships.

I work with folks who are navigating chronic stress and trauma…and the dysregulation, anxiety, and depression that often accompany them. Stress and trauma affect the relationship you have with yourself and your relationships with family, colleagues, and friends. Together we explore how trauma and stress impact the nature of who you are and who you are being at any moment, your physical health, and the outcomes you want to achieve. I travel alongside you as a compassionate presence, witness your healing journey, and help you develop a healthy sense of self. I will be there to listen, challenge, and support you throughout this process

Hello! My name is Brooke. Are you struggling with your child’s behavior at home or school? Feeling depressed, anxious, or simply lost in life? Have you recently experienced any big changes? Has a traumatic experience occurred in you or your child’s life and you don’t know how to go back to normalcy? Do you think you may be in a abusive or narcissistic relationship? Do you have a child with an intellectual disability that is struggling with emotional/behavioral issues? If any of these scenarios connected with you, I would love to help you not only gain the skills you need to heal and cope through your journey, but to also flourish!

After 27 years of working in the mental health field, in 3 different countries, I have an appreciation for the fact that life rarely goes according to plan. Perhaps you’re struggling with feeling anxious, depressed, or unfulfilled with some part of your life, or you find yourself longing for deeper, more meaningful relationships. Have you lived through traumatic events (whether recent or long ago) that have changed you in ways you don’t understand, caused you to react unpredictably...made you feel like a stranger to yourself, & you’re struggling to cope? I believe in meeting you where you're at, with compassion, & without judgment.

Life is a journey. However, our journeys often include interruptions as a result of experiences such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, issues resulting from trauma, loss, divorce, relationship issues, parenting issues, and issues with aging, to name a few. These experiences can negatively impact our thoughts, feelings, and behavior and our overall quality of life. It is important to know that your life does not have to remain negatively impacted by what has happened to you.
