EMDR Therapists in Lebanon, IN

It’s so easy in this day and age to lose sight of one’s self and wake up one day and not recognize the person in the mirror. It’s my passion to come alongside those individuals or couples that have lost their way in life and need a listening ear or a fresh perspective. I firmly believe that every dry and painful season of life can be a springboard into hope for the next. It does not matter who you are, what’s been done or what you have done, there is hope.

My career started as a therapist working with clients in recovery from substance use disorders. As my work progressed, I realized that excessive substance use was merely a coping mechanism for those suffering from mental health challenges, such as social anxiety, general anxiety, family discord, childhood abandonment or abuse, low self esteem, difficult relationships, parenting issues, transitions, retirement, past trauma and more. I am passionate about helping clients find relief from narcissistic family members, partners or colleagues, in particular. Thus, the scope of my work includes a broad range of mental health issues.

One of the bravest things that someone can do is find a supportive environment where you can be honest and take care of yourself. I look forward to being able to walk beside you and your family through this journey. Please email me to find a time to connect!

There are many reasons why someone might want to come to therapy. Are you feeling sad, worried, irritable or angry most of the time? Maybe it just feels hard to regulate your mood. You may have experienced trauma. You could be going through a difficult time in your life due to stress, grief or life changes. Your relationships with your friends or responsibilities at school might feel overwhelming or hard to manage. If you're a parent, you might notice these changes in your child or teen. Any of these situations can leave you feeling lonely, stuck or hopeless. I am here to help provide compassion, hope and trauma-informed care.

I believe that human beings have an inherent longing and need for wholeness and balance, which is our natural state of being. However, we sometimes encounter damaging or traumatic events or long term stress that interrupt this natural state. When we are imbalanced, we develop psychological and/or physical symptoms, and we begin to use ineffective coping mechanisms. The good news is that with the right tools, these struggles can be used as a path back to the wholeness we seek. Having worked with clients for over twenty years, I know firsthand the power of using our difficulties to point the way towards healing.

My therapy space is designed to help clients explore, notice, and align with their needs and values, through further processing of internal and external experiences. The ideal client is on a journey to better understand self, others, and the world around them. Maybe they have some past trauma impacting functioning, or maybe the current season feels really hard and overwhelming. We offer deep curiosity about what healing looks like moving forward in life. They are open to feedback and willing to trust the process and work to further understand what resources and tools might be open to helping them cultivate the life they want.

Currently accepting new patients. Hi! Beginning therapy can be scary and intimidating at first but so rewarding as you begin to experience positive changes in the way you feel and think.

My therapy style is warm, non-judgmental, and empathetic. I specialize in EMDR therapy. Let's help you find healing and growth no matter what season you find yourself in.

Seeking help is not an easy decision and I am here to provide assistance and support on your journey. It is important to me that I provide an accepting, comforting environment that allows you to feel safe when discussing difficult topics. As a social worker, I see the many factors that affect a person's life rather than focusing solely in the individual.

As a therapist I walk with you as your guide and ally in discovering unhelpful beliefs and finding new paths and possibilities. Change happens from new experiences; my role is to walk with you through insight and discovery. A perspective of mindfulness also influences my work. I am client centered and embrace the idea that we are each the expert of our own experiences of life. I will meet you where you are, identifying and building upon your strengths along with identifying barriers to growth.

You're here because some part of your life has gotten out of hand. I use down-to-earth techniques that are designed to nourish the human spirit.

I help families & people of all ages find personal security & balance in their relationships.

If you are looking for a results-oriented therapist, you've come to the right place! I focus on what you are already doing well and build on it. I also help you look at your difficulties from different perspectives. A heads up, I’m not the typical talk therapist. I’m not interested in you sitting on the couch with me for years. I want you to jump all in, do the hard work, heal well and get on with living your life.

I have 17 years of experience as a clinical Social Worker and I specialize in key areas of cognitive behavioral therapy for mood, EMDR, cognitive processing therapy for PTSD/trauma recovery work, substance abuse/codependency, Internal Family Systems, LGBTQIA, and consensual non-monogamy. I incorporate mindfulness, meditation, movement, nutrition, neuroplasticity, and art therapy into my practice as well.

I'm here to guide you in breaking free from unhelpful patterns, helping you regain control and build a life aligned with your values.
