Therapists for college students near Indianapolis, IN
We all experience loss at varying levels of severity. This part of life is often left unexplored. Have you reached a point where your life experiences are leaving you feeling tangIed emotionally creating pain and confusion? Therapy with me will help you untangle your feelings so you can discover clarity and balance with the losses and joys of life. Your strengths will guide us on your path of discovery. My commitment to you is to provide therapy rooted in empathy, compassion, and non-judgment. We will create a safe and supportive environment together where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and feelings in order to heal. My practice supports all humans with the vast spectrum of emotional wellness. You will find just having someone to listen to you as you share the experiences of your life will be healing. Then we process together how those experiences impact your thoughts and decisions and work to reduce the emotional response of those experiences so you feel in balance. I know the choice to seek therapy feels like a giant leap. I would encourage you to focus on this thought: to be vulnerable is the first agreement you must make with your self as you begin therapy. Once you agree to that, the rest will be a positive and life changing experience that will help you in so many ways!. You're not alone! I'm with you!
I believe healing is like the ocean—sometimes calm, sometimes stormy, but always full of possibility. My passion is walking alongside people who are navigating the waves of neurodivergence and trauma, offering a safe shore where you can pause, breathe, and feel understood.
As a dually licensed therapist in Indiana and Illinois, I offer a unique advantage to clients who attend school out of state and return home during the summer. This dual licensure ensures continuity of care, eliminating the need to switch therapists or interrupt treatment. My therapeutic style is warm, direct, and focused on building a strong connection with my clients. Through this approach, I strive to create a safe space where individuals can explore their challenges and work towards growth and healing. I firmly believe in using evidence-based practices to address a wide range of conditions effectively. What sets me apart from other therapists is my ability to infuse humor into the healing process when appropriate. I have found that incorporating humor and creativity empowers individuals to embrace imperfections and build resilience. If you are interested in starting therapy, feel free to reach out for a complimentary consultation where we can explore if my approach aligns with your needs.

Hello! My name is Kate, and I've been a therapist for 15 years, and a virtual therapist for 3 years. I have a Masters in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee. I love working with people of all ages, and enjoy addressing a diverse array of issues that impair us from being our best selves. In addition to myself, I work with 4 co-therapists; 3 dogs and a cat! They occassionally make brief appearances during sessions to provide their insight. I generally approach therapy as an equal meeting of you, as the expert on yourself, and me, as someone who can give some qualified insight and ask good questions to guide you to your own answers. I tend to be warm and engaging, and I pull the most from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), although I also use certain tools from other modalities, as well. In our sessions, we will work together to target the areas in which you would like to grow, give you the tools you need in order to produce the desired growth, and tackle sticking points and struggles as you work on applying what we discuss in therapy. I generally will give "homework" between sessions to help you continue to think about and apply what we are working on in your daily life, but it's nothing intense, I promise! Most clients find the "homework" really helpful and even fun, sometimes.

There is no universal blueprint for figuring life out. Despite following the rules, working hard, and even finding some success, life may feel really dull. With that, a sense of emptiness and lack of direction can ebb and flow as we move through our existence. Sometimes, it feels like we are just going through the motions and playing in the background is the soundtrack of everyone else’s opinions. You may not even be able to pinpoint what exactly is wrong. Maybe you’re drowning under pressure and expectations. Maybe you're stuck living in the past, or frozen by fear of the future. Maybe it's a million different things... All you know is that that something is missing and you want more out of life. Although none of us are exempt from hard experiences, you can truly thrive in life! I help college students, young adults, and professionals who have worked hard to follow the traditional path only to wind up feeling lost, disconnected, and craving more out of life. You deserve to find freedom and wholeness in who you are. To shed old stories, build new ones, & uncover the goodness in life. To rediscover your passions and chase your dreams. To heal your hurts, learn how to handle to mess when it shows up, and live a life of true fulfillment. I'm here to support you along your journey to living your magic. Let's connect!

I also treat Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Trichotillomania (and other BFRBs).
