Shelley Lafferty is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, in the state of Indiana, with a certification in Animal Assisted Social Work. Dallas is her registered therapy dog. She has 8 years of experience providing therapeutic services in working with adults and adolescents. Shelley can also provide these services in Spanish. Shelley seeks to establish a warm and caring relationship with you in order to walk with you as you work together, building on your strengths, moving in the direction of our goals and values, and helping you find your balance to live your most meaning life.

My approach to counseling is client-centered; I work with you to create the best-fit treatment to your needs. I work with adults, adolescents, and children on a variety of issues. Our goal together will be to help you feel more in tune with yourself and navigate life with a healthy perspective. I have been providing therapy services since 2017. Prior to private practice, I worked with families involved in the child welfare system who have experienced abuse, neglect, addiction, sexual trauma and community violence. I am proud of you for starting this journey for yourself, whether that is with me or another provider.

I work with kids and adults from all over the world, and use an integrative approach to counseling, as I don't believe that one-size-fits-all in therapy. I am passionate about helping expat adults and third culture kids (TCK's) as they live in new cultures and navigate all that entails. I also enjoy working with international clients, specifically Arab clients, and have a good understanding of the culture and traditions. I am EMDR Trained (Level 2), trauma informed, adoption informed, I coach parents of kids with an FASD and use mindfulness, self-compassion, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT & REBT), and person-centered approaches.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship or career issues, I offer a collaborative, non-judgmental approach to therapy. I enjoy being a witness to your life and can be a sounding board. Adolescents tend to respond really well to me and they make up half of my caseload. I also work with adults struggling with anxiety, narcissistic abuse, depression and life transitions like career changes, relationship changes, and life purpose issues.

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.

Do you struggle with feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness, and thoughts about not being good enough? Do you find yourself worrying about your intimate and platonic relationships? Do you often get accused of "overreacting" to a situation? You’re not alone! My approach is warm, interactive, and non-judgmental. Although flexible, I tend to use a combination of EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), Person-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques.

As we go through life we face challenges, from these challenges we may experience pain and suffering. As this pain becomes stored within us it creates burdens that may sometimes be too heavy to bear. As a result many may turn to temporary solutions. As I work with clients to explore and resolve pain and trauma more permanent solutions are often discovered and the burden of pain is reduced.

Are you struggling to find meaning and satisfaction in your life? If unresolved trauma has left you feeling alone and helpless, or the catastrophic predictions of anxiety have kept you immobilized, I can help. Throughout my career I have worked in several different levels of care and have extensive training treating addiction, mood disorders, and trauma. My personal journey in long term recovery as well as professional career has been focused on assisting people to shift from a sense of powerlessness to deep personal empowerment.

Is everything overwhelming? Do you feel like things are out of control? Is it a struggle to get up every morning because you have so much to do, but you don’t even know where to start? Life is hard. Whether you have a family to take care of or live alone, dealing with life’s challenges can feel impossible. It can be hard opening up to someone about how you are feeling. That is why it is important to work with a therapist who is understanding and non judgmental. You don’t have to be alone in this. Reaching out is the first step in regaining your life. We want to work with you to face life challenges and help you be your best self.

I want to help others know that they are not alone in their journey and they can lead happy lives despite what they have gone through.

Has life ever felt overwhelming? Have you felt you would benefit from someone to listen, suggest something new to try, or just talk you through somewhere to start? Dealing with stress, conflict in relationships, feelings of being out of control, inability to organize thoughts and everyday life, and/or navigating crisis alongside personal or family responsibilities can be overwhelming and make it difficult to seek help. You've made a courageous stride forward by coming here!

Are you ready to make a change? I'm Cheri Counterman, LCSW. I've been working as a therapist and medical social worker for over a decade. I've worked with clients who have had a wide range of concerns like depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, trauma, and many more. For therapeutic modalities, I specialize in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) but also utilize other forms of therapy like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and MI (Motivational Interviewing). I am passionate about learning new therapeutic skills and attend yearly trainings to stay on top of new evidence-based therapies.

Are you feeling stuck? Having difficulty keeping up? Wanting to make a change but don't know where to start? Change can be scary, and even more intimidating if feeling overwhelmed or alone. But change is possible, offers an opportunity for growth, and there is always hope for a better future. I have years of experience working in inpatient and outpatient settings with individuals of all ages and families of all backgrounds. I offer a calm, warm, nonjudgmental space where issues of all types and sizes may be explored. In a safe, supportive environment, therapeutic services are adapted to meet your individualized needs and goals.

NOT accepting NEW clients! Feeling disconnected from yourself or those closest to you? Not sure why? Are you ready to get more out of life, sex, and relationships? I’m here to help you do just that. Let’s unpack what’s not working for you, while also identifying and building on your strengths. Together, we’ll guide you towards new ways of thinking, feeling, and acting that align with your true self. I specialize in helping thoughtful, self-aware individuals like you discover your path to pleasure, agency, and love, leading to sincere and fulfilling connections.
