I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, grief, identity concerns, and major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to keep carrying everything on their own.
My approach is affirming, trauma-informed, and grounded in practical tools. I aim to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and supported as we work toward greater calm, clarity, and stability. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and focused on helping you move forward in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work and over four years of experience providing trauma-informed mental health care. Since beginning my therapy career in 2022, I have supported individuals facing complex trauma, depression, anxiety, and attachment-related challenges.
I specialize in EMDR and mindfulness training, offering clients a dynamic blend of advanced therapeutic modalities and empathic presence. My approach is rooted in the belief that true healing requires both symptom relief and the opportunity to reframe core beliefs shaped by trauma. I believe in getting to the root of the present day issues.
My clinical work focuses on helping clients reclaim personal agency, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with meaning and self-worth. I hold space for deep emotional work and guide clients toward lasting transformation.
I am committed not just to alleviating distress but to empowering people to rewrite their stories.
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’m Dr. Michelle S. McBride, DNP, PMHNP-BC, MBA, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and comprehensive mental health care. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Rush University in Chicago, IL. Before obtaining my doctorate, I was a board-certified psychiatric registered nurse, gaining extensive experience across various clinical settings, including inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric emergency services, community behavioral health, and forensic psychiatry (jail-based care).
I am experienced, confident in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including:
- Schizophrenia & Schizoaffective Disorder
- Eating Disorders
- Psychosis
- Major Depressive Disorder
- Personality Disorders
- ADHD
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- PTSD
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
- Bipolar Disorders
- Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD)
- Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED)
I have worked in a variety of settings working with clients of all ages but my area of primary focus has been families and children. I have worked in a community mental health center, in child protection and in school social work/counseling. I was director of a domestic violence program and also led a treatment program for adolescent sex offenders. My therapeutic style is to develop a partnership with my clients to help them improve their lives.
Hello, I’m Dr. Rebecca Pender Baum, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist with over 18 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan. I work with clients navigating everyday stress, anxiety, unexpected life transitions, and both current and past traumatic experiences. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply seeking greater clarity and balance, therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and move forward with intention.
Couples who call me say they've drifted apart, feel more like roommates, and affection has stopped. Ineffective patterns of communication prevent them from reaching to each other. The magic in their relationship has died and the dance has ended. Individuals who call me say they are exhausted, discouraged, and dissatisfied with life. Old thoughts and behaviors continue to negatively impact who they are, what they want to accomplish, and their relationships. They too, have lost the meaning and magic of life. Healthy relationships, whether with yourself or others, are key to a happy, satisfying, life and keeping the magic going.
With over a decade of experience, I offer tailored therapy for diverse challenges: Disruptive Behavior, Parental Stress, LGBTQIA Support, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Relationships, Grief, Life Transitions, BIPOC Concerns, and Personal Growth. I use a holistic approach integrating Trauma-Informed Care, CBT, and Behavior Therapy. Let's work towards healing and growth together!
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with adolescents and adults as they navigate the challenges life brings. I have experience supporting clients with trauma, depression, anxiety, and a range of other mental health concerns, and I have a particular heart for working with women and families.
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human connection. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door, and you don’t have to worry about being judged. I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where you can be yourself, feel heard, and know that you’re not facing things alone.
If you or your child have been carrying something heavy, like the aftermath of trauma, anxiety that keeps your body on high alert, or a low mood that will not lift, you do not have to white knuckle it alone. I am Rhiannon Brown, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I help people process what they have been through and find their footing again. I work with children, teens, and adults, including LGBTQIA+ and trans folks, neurodivergent clients, and people with chronic or invisible illnesses.
In life the most important aspect is the relationship we have with ourselves and others. As a mental health therapist I believe healing happens through connection, understanding, and feeling truly heard. I help individuals navigate the effects of trauma, strengthen relationships, and develop the tools needed to create lasting emotional well being in a warm, nonjudgmental environment.
Hello. I am a LPCCS, TCADC, NCC, QMHP, and QIDP. I love and enjoy working with people. I am person centered and believe in Hope. I have worked in mental health for over thirteen years. I am EMDR and SIPS certified. I have been trained in CBT Cognitive Behavioral Therapy by the CBT Beck Institute. If you want to start making changes in your life, I am the therapist for you. I will work with you and meet you where you are.
