Marriage Counseling Therapists in Indianapolis, IN
Is there something keeping you from reaching your goals, achieving your potential, or living the life you wish you could have? I am a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience providing therapy and psychological assessments. I am committed to helping individuals, couples, and families address and overcome a variety of life challenges. Too many times, well-meaning people tell us how we should feel, what we should want, or how we should think. My process is collaborative, with a recognition that the way you perceive and experience your world is unique to you and central to any changes we can accomplish.

Hello, I am Natalie Hartney, a LMHC, or Professional Counselor, in Indiana. I use casual conversation, curiosity, and humor to get to the heart of a client's lived experience. The focus areas of my practice include working with individuals and couples of all identities to identify unhelpful patterns, and create change. I approach therapy from a directive CBT perspective, that is, providing information about how brains and nervous systems work, to help you better understand and make smart choices in responses to situations. I use education, exploration, mindfulness, and self acceptance as core values when working with clients.

One of the staples of life is change. Change can be viewed as a positive or in a not-so-positive manner. Change affects us not only in relation to events but in how we perceive each other. For over 32 years, I have walked alongside individuals and families through change. Change pulls at the core of who we are and often in this tug-of-war, we find ourselves frustrated, lost, feeling helpless and with major questions. Let's journey through these questions together.

Relationships are a tough, but necessary part of our existence; be it with your partner, family, friends, or even co-workers.

I offer a safe and supportive environment for you to focus on what has put you into the 'here and now' and how you can better the tomorrow.

I have worked with many clients who have felt that something was wrong with them for most of their lives, and these messages have caused deep pain. Through my training and through building connection, trust, and comfort, we better identify where these painful narratives come from. Clients are more able to then choose alternative narratives and experience themselves and their lives differently. My specialization lies in working with individual adults and couples who are LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, and non-monogamous. I am passionate about supporting people during periods of change, exploration, and healing from complex trauma.

My hope, as a relationship and individual counselor, is to function as a facilitator helping you navigate your current challenges; i.e. difficult personal or family transitions, poor communication/conflict resolution, trust issues and loss. I can help you to reach your goals so you can move forward in your life, building on your own inner strengths and capabilities as part of the process. I have tools to provide you for practicing new skills that you can carry beyond counseling, into your own life and relationships.
