Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Fort Wayne, IN

If you're an adolescent or young adult feeling untethered, like the people around you have shifted, like your effort isn't matching your results, or like you're falling short no matter how hard you try, I want you to know that's exactly what I help with. I'm Heather Case, Ed.D., a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC/LSC) with over 25 years of experience at the intersection of mental health and education. I work with adolescents and young adults navigating identity development, life transitions, anxiety, ADHD, and the emotional impact of learning differently in a system built for one kind of learner, including students navigating IEP or 504 plans. My own experience as a first-generation student with an undiagnosed learning difference shapes how I approach this work: I don't see struggle within a rigid system as a limit on ability. I hold an Ed.D. from USC, and I've worked as a clinical counselor, school counselor, graduate faculty instructor, and student affairs administrator.

I believe that mental health is an important part of overall health and happiness. Each person has the ability to commit to and foster positive change in their lives. I always strive to work with each client as an individual, fostering their strengths and building healthy coping skills, insight, and empowering courage for change. I am passionate about women's health and issues. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

I have extensive experience in working with families, children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced various forms of trauma, both acute and chronic, as well as grief and loss, stress and anxiety, as well as other behavioral health issues.

You're here because something needs to change, and that takes courage. I'm Jennifer, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 17 years of experience working with individuals, teens, and families across Florida and Indiana.

So many people go through their day/week/month/ year without anyone really hearing or seeing them. It can be lonely and scary moving through the world with mental and emotional pain that you don’t know what to do with. Bring it to counseling. I’m Samantha, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I create and hold a safe, supportive, and empathetic space for my clients. I am a somatic EMDR practitioner and specialize in treating trauma, supporting individuals with ADHD, depression, anxiety, and overwhelm.

I’ve spent the last twenty years working with adolescents, young adults, and their families, and in recent years I’ve expanded my practice to include adults of all ages. My greatest strength as a therapist is my ability to build genuine rapport and trust, creating a space where clients feel understood, supported, and safe to be themselves.

I hold a master’s degree in counseling and have additional training and experience in grief, anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, academic counseling, post-secondary planning, and career counseling. Whether you’re navigating a major change, processing something difficult, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to walk alongside you with warmth, practical tools, and evidence-based support.

Hi! Thanks for considering counseling to help you meet your goals. I'm Sara Hardy, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I've been providing counseling to individuals, couples, and families for over 30 years and am a Board Certified Telemental Health provider with over 15 years of experience providing distance counseling. Whether you want to meet personal goals, manage stress, or want to work through relationship or family challenges, let’s work together.

A few things about me outside of therapy: I have three children, so I understand that life can be beautifully chaotic. I’m a real person, not a therapist robot. I’ll bring authenticity into our work together.

I work with adolescents and adults across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, grief, and major life transitions. Most importantly, you don’t have to impress me. You don’t have to have the perfect answers or know exactly what you want to say. Therapy can be a place to better understand what you’re experiencing, recognize patterns that may be getting in your way, and develop healthier ways to move forward. Come as you are, and we’ll navigate the hard stuff together.
