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.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 11+ years of experience working with teens and adults. I help people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, and major life transitions, with a particular focus on self-worth, healthy boundaries, understanding the patterns that shape our relationships, and finding our way back to ourselves.

A lot of the work I do is about figuring out who you are, what you want, and what healthy connection actually looks like—whether that's in dating, marriage, family, or friendships. Sometimes we lose ourselves trying to keep everyone else happy, and part of the work is finding your way back.

I'm laid-back, honest, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not like you're being judged or talked at. We'll have real conversations, find the humor when we can, and make space for both the hard days and the growth. You don't have to have everything figured out before you start therapy. You just have to show up as you are—or wherever you are in the process of figuring out who you are.

Hello and congratulations for taking the first and sometimes hardest step of looking for a therapist. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of IN, KY LA, MO, NV, TX, WA and WV. I have the great privilege of working with adolescents and adults seeking assistance in improving their overall mental health and associated challenges. I’ve been in the behavioral health arena for over 40 years and have held numerous direct care and clinical leadership roles in a variety of settings. My joy comes from helping people navigate life's challenges.

I am a licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner dedicated to serving my community. I enjoy connecting with my patients and working together to find the best treatment for them!

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’m Stefani, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship challenges, family stress, life transitions, and trauma. Sometimes you know exactly what’s wrong. Sometimes you just know you don’t feel like yourself anymore.

I don’t rush people or push past your pace, and I don’t flinch at the hard stuff. You don’t need the right words or a perfect story to begin. We can start wherever you are and figure the rest out together.

I have over a decade of experience supporting people through difficult and deeply personal circumstances. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, feel understood, and begin making sense of what you’re carrying.

You might feel alone in this struggle but you don’t have to be. My work, which has been shaped by my own experiences of suffering and clinical training, is more than a career, it is a calling. I help people move from surviving to living with intention, calm, and confidence.

I have an undergraduate degree in psychology, and a master’s in clinical social work. I specialize in treating OCD and other anxiety disorders with Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy. I use this therapy because I’ve seen it help people begin living the lives that they want to live without fear being the driving force.

I also have a background in working with parents who are experiencing challenging situations. Whenever I work with children, I work with the caregivers as well in order to improve family unity and create lasting change.

I am very trauma-aware in that I recognize the role that past experiences have had in shaping who we are today. My philosophy is that these experiences don’t have to hold us back, but that healing is a journey to be embraced.

At the heart of my practice is a genuine desire to help people grow. I believe every person has the ability to create a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with their values. My role is to walk alongside clients as they navigate challenges, build new skills, and discover what’s possible for them. My style is warm, direct, and growth‐oriented.
