Therapists in New Haven, IN

I have helped many people from ages 12 to 80+ 'weather a personal crisis' regardless of circumstances; in addition, I have acquired special,training in working with returning military personnel in coping with their re-entry issues as well as helping them take 'next steps'. I am also an expert in career 'direction' as well as 'redirection', and regardless of age, I seek those people as clients who desire to become or retain an 'open mind'! I encourage 'self-esteem' as a precious commodity and promote one's own goals and personal values as their keys to happiness.

I am a counselor who believes in disciple-ing and equipping people to realize and live out of their full identity in Christ. I specialize in counseling, trauma, addictive behaviors, women’s issues, and problems related to sexual brokenness. I love that I get to pour into others by counseling through difficult times, supervising as people find their footing in a new career, or walking alongside them through various seasons of life. I received my Master of Arts in Counseling from Cincinnati Seminary and a Masters in Strategic Leadership from Western Governors University.

Let me introduce myself. I am Jeannette Murphy. I bring to you more than thirty years of counseling experience with the treatment of Individuals, Couples,Children and Families, both individually and in groups. My counseling is designed to help you with a wide variety of personal, marital and family issues. I specialize using Brief Solution-Based Treatment. This treatment method is effective whether you come alone or with other family members.

My name is Samantha Wright-Cooksey, MSW, LCSW. I have been a therapist for over 20 years with combined experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and their families. I have provided professional services in outpatient, home, community and school-based settings. I have worked in addictions as well as end of life issues. I utilize strength-based and solution focused techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and problem solving skills training. I offer in person and telehealth options for therapy. I accept most insurance, EAP, and self pay options.

NOTE: At this time, I am only offering EMDR Intensives or EMDR for a recent traumatic event. Through my experience working in mental health and addiction treatment, I've adopted a style of therapy that is both direct AND empowering and supportive. My experience allows for me to be flexible in my treatment approach, ensuring that I am providing counseling services that are individualized to meet your needs. My therapy strengths are in treating addictive disorders, PTSD/complex trauma, anxiety disorders, chronic pain, and working with first responders.

I have a true passion to help individuals achieve their mental health and life goals, live in abundance and navigate through difficult life situations. If you are struggling to find peace, purpose or just need direction, I can help! I am currently accepting new clients for Ketamine-Assisted Therapy, Psychotherapy and Life Coaching. KAT is proven to be effective for treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and addiction. KAT is effective with increasing mood, elimination of negative thoughts and patterns, and improving overall functioning. KAT and Therapy may have better outcomes than with treating independently.

I'm looking forward to meeting you, hearing your story and helping you find healing. Years of education and experience have afforded me the wisdom and ability to help you understand the mental distress you are experiencing, and then to collaborate and create the most effective treatment plan possible. I understand that the struggles we all face are personal and often profound. My goal is to create an atmosphere that provides my clients comfort, care, Christianity, and compassion. I also offer Clinical Supervision for counselors seeking hours for their LMHC candidacy and therapy and letters for ESA's.

I have been told many times that I am easy to talk to. I look forward to working with individuals, families as well as children and adolescents to address a multitude of issues. Confronting negative patterns and building on strengths brings change as we work through contributing issues. Substance Abuse assessment and treatment also available. I have formed many relationships with court, county, legal and medical professionals to offer the best collaboration of care.

Say hello to your new safe space! My passion as a therapist is to bring healing to individuals who have experienced traumatic and/or stressful life events, find healthy perspectives of themselves, and strengthen their relationships. Whether it's a child, adult, or family, my goal is for my clients to know and see themselves as peaceful, whole, complete, and safe. My passion is to uplift, empower, encourage, and assist individuals in exploring personal goals for self-improvement.

Life can be challenging and very difficult to navigate, whether it's concerning a career, school, an illness, relationships, etc., and often times, these life challenges are in co-occurrence with one another. Likewise, we tend to feel as though we are alone in facing life struggles, and I am here to help you understand that you are not alone. My goal is to validate you and your life experiences while guiding you in a way to effectively take on life challenges. Through validation, collaboratively, we can also recognize how your thought and behavioral patterns impact how you emotionally react to difficult life experiences.

I focus on many issues affecting the well-being of my clients including substance abuse and addiction, psychological and emotional issues, social and family relationships, personal and professional goals, wellness, spirituality, and coping with trauma and life stressors. I am here to help and I am here to listen. Though I can assist you with a number of issues, my specialty is in the treatment of addiction and problem gambling. I'm no stranger to addiction or recovery. I am a person in long-term recovery, the child of an alcoholic, teach addiction courses at local universities, and have been treating addiction for over 20 years.
