You don’t have to keep living in survival mode. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck—constantly holding it all together for everyone else—you’re not alone. Many of the women and adolescents I work with are used to pushing through stress, managing everything on the outside, while feeling exhausted or disconnected on the inside. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering trauma-informed, integrative therapy that supports both your emotional well-being and your nervous system. Together, we’ll work to gently understand what you’ve been carrying, build awareness of patterns, and help your body and mind begin to feel safe

I actively participate in helping you get to where you want to go, and I offer insight when clients have a desire and readiness to hear it. I have worked in the mental health field for over ten years as well, so I have heard it all! My office is a no judgement zone first and foremost. I am a sex therapist and look forward to helping you overcome sexual shame and trauma so that you can have all the intimacy and closeness you desire.

Hello and welcome. My name is Muhammad Saahir, LMHC and I have been a full-time clinician since 2013 and fully licensed since 2016. My theoretical approach includes a combination of person-centered and cognitive behavior therapy. While working with clients, I aim to focus on giving space for growth, validation, and collaborative goal setting.

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.

Choosing the right therapist is an important step, and I'd like to share a little about the clients I serve to help you decide whether we'd be a good fit. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are navigating challenges in their relationships. Whether it's with a partner, family member, friend, or even your relationship with yourself, our connections often have a significant impact on how we think, feel, and move through the world. Many of the struggles people bring to therapy are rooted in feeling disconnected, hurt, or stuck in repeating patterns, and I find it meaningful to help clients create healthier relationships. My own journey has required grit, resilience, and the willingness to rise again and again, and those experiences shape the way I sit with others in their pain, their uncertainty, and their becoming.

Audrena Kelley, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder/owner of For You I Will Services & Consulting, PLLC who is also entering her final year of her Doctorate of Social Work program. As a social work professional, I've worked with adolescents, adults, couples, and families from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and socioeconomic status. Individuals ages 18 and older are only being accepted at this time.

I enjoy working with people of color and others of diverse backgrounds to help them navigate through the life events that contribute to depression, anxiety, adjustment challenges, or any other emotional irregularities that affect their ability to function the way they want to.

I have a holistic, creative approach to counseling, focusing not just on talk-therapy, but mind-body connection and our network of supports and relationships. I have worked in non-profit and community counseling centers and have experience with all ages of clients as well as multiple levels of abilities. My education background is not only in clinical mental health counseling but also peace and justice and art studies.

My name is Ayeshah Ovalle Mahmood. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a multidisciplinary academic background that includes graduate degrees in Clinical Psychology, Industrial-Organizational Psychology, and Counselor Education. My professional experience spans clinical therapy, teaching, research, and community-based work, with clinical services provided across both home-based and traditional clinical settings.

My areas of clinical focus include trauma and PTSD, high-functioning anxiety/perfectionism, executive burnout, work-life balance, relationship concerns, grief and bereavement, life transitions, workplace stressors, and the unique experiences of military veterans and immigrants. I also have a strong interest in cultural diversity and the ways culture, identity, work, relationships, and life circumstances can shape emotional and psychological well-being.

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.

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!

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.

I’m passionate about supporting clients as they navigate life’s challenges. I believe everyone deserves to have someone by their side through both the highs and the lows.

I take a person-centered approach to therapy, meeting you exactly where you are and creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported—especially during vulnerable moments. I show up as my authentic self in sessions so that you can feel comfortable doing the same. My goal is that each time we meet, you leave feeling at least a little lighter—whether that comes from feeling heard, gaining insight, or simply having a space to release what you’ve been carrying.

With over 15 years of experience, I bring both professional knowledge and genuine compassion into my work. I’m known for being kind, approachable, and deeply committed to the therapeutic process.

I’m also a certified yoga instructor and enjoy incorporating mindfulness and grounding techniques into sessions when it feels helpful. I believe in the connection between mind and body and strive to support clients in feeling more balanced, present, and connected to themselves.

It’s truly an honor to walk alongside my clients as they heal, grow, and move forward.

I’m Ashley, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering virtual therapy in Indiana. I’ve been providing therapy since 2021, with over 15 years of experience in mental and behavioral health. I believe one of the most important parts of therapy is finding someone you feel comfortable being yourself with. I want you to feel heard, understood, and supported without feeling judged.

I work with adults and especially enjoy helping young adults figure out who they are, what they want, and what they need. Many of the people I work with overthink, struggle to set boundaries, or are much harder on themselves than they are on everyone else. I also help people dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and past experiences that still affect their lives and relationships.

I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to help people work through difficult experiences and negative beliefs about themselves. Sometimes you understand why you feel a certain way, but knowing that hasn’t been enough to help you feel differently. EMDR is one approach we can explore together.

My style is warm, honest, and down-to-earth, with room for humor. I’ll support and validate you, and I’ll also gently challenge you or point out patterns I’m noticing. Sometimes you may want direct feedback, and other times you may need space to work through something. We’ll talk about what feels helpful to you.

I don’t believe therapy should look the same for everyone. If something we’re doing isn’t helping, I want you to feel comfortable telling me so we can make adjustments. You don’t have to know exactly what to say or have everything figured out before starting. We can figure out where to begin together.
