Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Merrillville, IN covered by Cigna

I was born and raised in a small town in Alabama where Southern hospitality thrived and people believed in a sense of community. As a small girl, I found joy in being a helping hand and learned some valuable life lessons that continue to be a huge part of me today. Everyone needs a little help from time to time and it is totally okay to reach out for help. None of us can do this thing called life alone and that’s why I would love to help you navigate your journey towards better mental health/wellness. My passion is listening to people’s stories and delving into the problems that not only hinder themselves but perhaps other interpersonal relationships as well. As a psychiatrist I am trained to evaluate, diagnose, and treat mental illnesses such as mood disorders, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. My philosophy is that each person is different and unique so not everyone’s path to healing is the same. My job? To embrace that uniqueness and help you reach your mental health goals.

I specialize in women's mental health and perinatal mental health. You can set an appointment in-person or virtually. I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with a certification in perinatal mental health. I provide medication management along with talk therapy. With a master of science in leadership and management, I proudly managed a maternal/child home health program in southern Indiana and have extensive experience as a registered nurse in neonatal intensive care. I am here to support you during the journey towards healing, empowerment & resilience.

I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.

I’m an Indiana and Michigan Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping young adults, adults, and older adults (65+) manage life transitions, emotional stress, and everyday overwhelm. As a fully virtual provider, I offer flexible, confidential online therapy to clients across Michigan.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana. I earned my masters degree in social work from the University of Louisville in 2013. I have over 13 years of professional social work experience in the mental health field as well as the school setting. I am dedicated to helping individuals, families, and children navigate life’s most difficult seasons. I have a dual background as both a licensed clinical

(LCSW) and School Social Worker (LSSW), which is a great asset for parents looking for help with school-related issues. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or the lasting effects of trauma, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard. I am currently accepting new clients for telehealth across Indiana.

I believe that each person holds inherent wisdom needed to transform pain into healing. Although pain is a natural part of life, it doesn't have to define your future. My belief is that through a trusted relationship, you can access an inner sense of safety needed to heal wounds while honoring your unique journey.

I am deeply committed to supporting individuals on their life journey, fostering an environment for healing, transformation, and empowerment through providing accessible mental health services.

Maybe you're carrying something you've never said out loud. Maybe you look fine from the outside and feel worn down underneath it. Either way, you don't need to arrive with the right words or an explanation.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. I work with people living with trauma and PTSD, including the aftermath of crime and moments of real crisis. A lot of my work also deals with the weight people carry from what the world expects of them: the pressures that come with being a woman or a man, the small daily slights, discrimination, and inequality that add up over the years.

Outside of session you'll usually find me running, on a yoga mat, or watching basketball. I'm convinced cooking and gardening count as therapy too.

With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.

I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
