I believe that a strong, authentic therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change. I am a licensed therapist who has worked in a variety of settings, supporting people through some of life’s most difficult moments. I have experience working with children, adolescents, college students, and adult women. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported—while also encouraged to grow.
I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a focus on practical, relationship-based mental health care. I specialize in medication management for conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and stress-related challenges, especially for working professionals and first responders. My approach is straightforward and collaborative. I take time to understand what’s actually going on and build a plan that fits your life. With an integrative mindset. I see medication and talk therapy as tools in a tool chest of mental wellness.
I am a career changer, having worked with international students before moving to social work, in which my experiences include: psychiatric inpatient, medical (oncology), and mental health outpatient settings.
Put simply: my curiosity and empathy for people is what drives me through my career and through my current work with clients.
I have a Master of Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).
Hello! My name is Zachary! I am happy you visited my profile. Before you begin browsing, I just want to say you are strong and you have incredible power in you to journey towards healing. I believe in your success and your potential.
I received my Bachelor of Arts at Goshen College and my Master of Social Work at Andrews University. I am a LCSW in Indiana, LISW in Ohio, and a LSCSW in Kansas.
I have experience in care management and facilitation, providing counseling to juveniles on probation, delivering therapy to those who have been court ordered, doing home-based clinical services, implementing and administering Family Centered Treatment© to families, hospice social work, community mental health, certified clinical behavioral health clinics, conducting counseling to geriatric and SPMI populations, as well as telehealth.
I am an LCSW with a Master's of Social Work degree and have been in field over 12 years.
I did not stumble into this work — I chose it, and I choose it every day. I am Bianca Gist, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois and Indiana.
I am also a former collegiate athlete, and that background shapes how I show up — I know what it feels like to carry a lot and still need someone genuinely in your corner. My experience is rooted in the spaces where people need the most and are often given the least — Chicago Public Schools, foster care, home-based services, and community mental health. Through my private practice, Her Sole Purpose LLC, I work with children, adolescents, student-athletes, and families using CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed care. I use what works for the person in front of me, not a one-size-fits-all approach. I work well with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the weight of environments that were not built for them. Therapy with me is honest, grounded, and focused on what actually helps you move forward — not just cope.
If any of this resonates, I would love to connect.
First let me say I went into therapy after a lot of my own problems in life and I wanted to understand why I struggled so much. Currently I specialize in relationship counseling, PTSD, anxiety, and grief/loss. Everyone's mind is shaped by their experiences, environment, personality, and a variety of other factors. I recently retired from the VA after 17 years of working with veterans and their struggles. There rest of the time I was in community care working with individuals and families. I understand that it can be hard to ask for help but the most resilient people I know have been the ones that want to keep discovering what is underneath the surface. It's not easy to figure it out yourself. That's why I do what I do! I love to help people unlock the mysteries in their heads. I would welcome the opportunity to get to know you if you think we would be a good fit. I DO NOT JUDGE..that is not my job nor my nature. My job is to uplift and assist you in finding your way to an improved quality of life.
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. I specialize in maternal mental health, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and substance use. I don't do cookie-cutter therapy — I adapt to you, your pace, and your life.
Feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer seem to work? Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, a major life transition, chronic health concerns, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, you don't have to go through it alone.
For more than 20 years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside children, adolescents, and adults through some of life's most difficult seasons. My mission is simple: to restore hope, foster healing, and support meaningful personal growth. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered as we work toward the life you want to live.
Sometimes life changes in ways you never expected. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, the transition into parenthood, or the emotional demands of caring for others, it's easy to lose sight of yourself while trying to keep everything together. You don't have to face those challenges alone. For more than 20 years, I've partnered with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, women's issues, and trauma, helping them build resilience, strengthen relationships, and rediscover hope during life's most difficult seasons. Working with children, adolescents, and adults, I strive to create a compassionate, supportive space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and empowered to move toward lasting healing.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Lafayette, IN
Searching for therapists in Lafayette starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist is trained for it. People may look for therapy in Lafayette for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Lafayette therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their approach.
In a smaller city like Lafayette, local office options may be more limited than in larger Indiana markets, especially if you want a specific specialty or appointment time. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Indiana. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near Lafayette or West Lafayette, virtual appointments that fit your schedule, or a therapist who offers a free phone consultation before you book. Reading bios can help you compare communication style, availability, and areas of focus before choosing a therapist.
Therapy in Lafayette can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person availability, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Lafayette, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
