I am licensed in Indiana with 16 years of professional work experience. In that time I have seen and treated most mental health disorders out there. I specialize in anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I am certified as in a Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR); both evidenced-based treatments for trauma. But more over I view most mental health problems as ways we have learned to adapt to our environments, and I as therapist help to teach you skills and create new beliefs to stop the maladaptive cycles we all get stuck in. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I also use a lot of humor and try build a trusting connection with my clients. So while there maybe tears, I also hope there will be a lot of laughter. I can't wait to help you grow and make the changes that will help you have the fulfilling life you deserve. I have weekend availability every other week.
