Empathetic, but will challenge one to become the best version of themselves. My years of experience afford me a good insight into various mental health disorders. I have a vast background in working with couples, families, and court ordered cases regarding divorce and coparenting. I have worked with diverse populations extensively. I utilize humor to help make the counseling environment warm, fun and engaging.
Hello there I am Debbie and I have been working in the counseling field for over 16 years and practicing as a licensed clinical therapist the last 10 years. My goal has always been to provide my clients with supportive non bias/judgement free environment to work on developing strength based and client center focused goals! I have made it my mission in life to help each and every client become the best version of themselves they possibly can be! I am over the moon about the results I have seen over the years with my clients. I hope to continue helping everyone I work with to find their path to happiness healing and security through our time together!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor. Most of my experience has been with teens who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and are involved in the juvenile justice system because of their decision making. I am currently a student pursuing my Doctor of Social Work and believe whole-heartedly in treating mental health and substance use concurrently, including the family as an integral part of the recovery process.
Hi there! I am a licensed counselor in both Indiana and Minnesota. I graduated from Purdue University Northwest in 2022 with my Masters in Mental Health Counseling, and have worked in community mental health, substance use recovery, and private practice settings since. I enjoy working with adults through various circumstances, issues, or symptoms, and utilize a mix of CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, and EMDR interventions during sessions.
Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with over 5 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked in a wide range of practice settings, supporting clients across the lifespan—from youth to older adults.
My desire is to see humanity thrive; past the stuck points and adversity. I am passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges and would be honored to support you on your journey.
I consider myself a social worker by nature. I enjoy helping people become the best person they can be. I want to work with people on how to communicate better and manage relationships. I enjoy working with clients that are dealing with life transitions and grief. I am a full time school social worker and a part time therapist.
I've spent over a decade working with people who are fighting battles most people don't talk about — addiction, eating disorders, dual diagnosis, and the anxiety and depression that come along for the ride. I'm not here to give you a five-step plan. I'm here to be the person who genuinely gives a damn about what you're carrying. I've learned a lot from the great therapists, yoga teachers, and people in recovery who shaped my own life — and my whole purpose is giving that back. I also teach yoga, which means I don't just talk about mindfulness — I live it. Morning, evening, and weekend slots available. Aetna, Anthem, Cigna, and Carelon accepted.
