Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Plainfield, IN

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS I want you to know, you are not alone and you don't have to do this by yourself. I'm a firm believer in therapy, what it can do for the mind, body and soul. I believe that our childhood trauma can be a huge impact on our adult life. It is resiliency that gets us through it. No matter where life has taken you, you can heal and move forward. I have over 10 years of experience. My experience ranges from working with individuals with intellectual abilities, group facilitation, domestic violence advocacy, therapy and public health social work.

Hi! My name is Nichole Hutchinson and I became a mental health counselor in order to provide a supportive and inclusive environment to adolescents and adults, where freedom of expression, speaking your own truth, and the ability to be heard can all happen. What brings you here today? No matter the reason, you are in the right place. Are you feeling underwhelmed, overworked, stressed out, burdened, unhappy, or challenged in some way? These are all common feelings and yet they can make you feel out of control.

Hi, I'm Michele. I'm glad you're here. I know how a situation, involving yourself or a loved one, can consume your life. I became a therapist because I've experienced similar circumstances. Those moments have led me to be an empathetic and effective counselor. We will take things at your pace. This is your time, and we will work together to find healing and growth.

It's my belief to "Keep life simple." Life is stressful enough. Balancing work, family, social life, friends, and relationships can be overwhelming at times. I practice from a harm reduction holistic theoretical orientation. It combines person-centered (respect for autonomy) with CBT/systemic therapy (a critical look at culture and attachments). By identifying wants and needs, I can assist clients with locating triggers and establishing healthy coping skills to alleviate any mental, emotional, or physical stress. I work particularly with parents and clients dealing with ADHD,career choices, pregnancy, self-esteem and accountability.

Are you feeling drained, stressed, fatigued, or depressed? Do you face challenges maintaining positive relationships with healthy boundaries? Have you experienced a traumatic past that you are trying to heal from? Are you a perfectionist who leaves no room for error for themself? Do you need to build your self-esteem and discover your own identity? Are you a parent who needs a safe space to express their emotions and thoughts surrounding parenting? Do you need support through one of life's many transitions? If you answered "yes" to any of these, you are in the right place!

Life can be full of ups and downs and sometimes it can be hard to ride those waves. Sometimes we need a lifeline – something or someone we can hold onto to help us ride out the storms. Knowing who to turn to for help can sometimes feel overwhelming because you want to know that the person you choose has the right tools to help you and is also someone you feel understands what you are going through. Change begins when we choose to take action and taking this first step of seeking out a therapist who can be that lifeline is evidence of your desire to find hope and healing.

You want to appear successful & like you have it “all together” but deep down are struggling to feel confident in who you are or cope with challenging experiences that have occurred in your life. Are you a woman whose life looks “good” from the outside, and yet it still feels like something is missing? You’ve accomplished a lot in life, but don’t feel the sense of fulfillment you expected. A big life change—maybe a breakup, new job, new marriage, change in family dynamic, or move—has highlighted the fact that you’re still not as happy or content as you want to be. Something is telling you that you need to make a shift.

With a decade of experience in mental health & health education, I specialize in treating trauma using a blend of parts work, experiential techniques, somatic experiencing, and psychoeducation. My approach is designed to help individuals rediscover self-love and heal from the deep-seated impacts of trauma. Clients who work with me often find relief from overwhelming feelings of guilt, shame, perfectionism, and anger - all of which are frequently rooted in internalized trauma.

My clients often are aware that something in their current lives is no longer serving them, want to understand how that came to be, and align themselves with the vision they have for their future. This often starts by noticing repeating patterns of behavior in themselves, or those they attract, and becoming curious about the reason why. They may also find that they experience certain physical and emotional responses (anger, anxiety, people pleasing etc.) and know that their body is trying to tell them something needs to shift.

I provide a setting inclusive of calm, supporting personal growth, reflection, and insight. I encourage the nurturance of hope as a factor of psychological wellness and respect the courage entailed in listening to one's inner voice while seeking to maintain psychological health. I have a sincere interest and passion in the emotional wellness and spiritual health of human beings. I appreciate the courage and resilience within the human spirit and the anguish that life experiences can bring to our inner core.

My ideal client would be someone who is geared towards helping themselves and needing guidance on how to do so. Someone who has a grasp on the importance of the client putting in the work to truly help heal themselves but needing assistance ensuring they are doing things in a healthy and emotionally intelligent fashion. Talk therapy is very important for clients who even just want to come and vent, which I believe helps the mind unclutter.

I believe that each and every person has a right and ability to better themselves in times of need. If you are willing and able to change and make a difference in your own life, I would be happy to help you through that in the most healthy and personalized way for you.
