In individual therapy, a client typically focuses on areas of functioning they would like to improve. This could mean improving social skills and relationships, learning to recognize and regulate emotions, processing trauma, developing self-worth, learning to set healthy boundaries, resolving grief, treating mental health issues like depression and anxiety, learning coping skills to manage life stressors better, and working on any number of other issues of importance to the individual.

Individual therapy is meant to be a space where a person can feel safe to talk about difficult things as well as gain better insight into their life, their relationships and themselves. The therapist brings a combination of objectivity, compassion and evidence-based, clinical intervention to help the client achieve their goals.

A lot of people have a misconception something has to “be wrong with you” to go to therapy. Not true at all! Everyone can benefit from therapy, but I always encourage clients to approach it with intention. It’s a space that’s set aside for you. Individual therapy is most effective when you know why you’re there and what you would like to get out of it. Therapy is a form of self-care and an investment in yourself.

Couples therapy can help people in partnerships of all types grow and deepen their relationship. Couples therapy can have tremendous value to couples who are seeking to improve communication, considering marriage or divorce, experiencing challenges or external stressors, navigating changes in their relationship dynamic (such as introducing other partners), struggling with sexual and emotional intimacy, or just generally hoping to develop a closer bond by gaining better insight through a neutral party.

A common misconception is that seeking couple’s therapy means that the relationship is “bad.”  While many couples begin attending therapy during a crisis, going to couple’s therapy during periods of satisfaction can help amplify intimacy and connection and provide the valuable tools that will help them navigate challenges and prevent crises in the future.

Coaching takes a more goal-focused approach. Like therapy, coaching can help you explore and understand yourself and be a catalyst for meaningful change in your life. While many therapists also offer coaching services, the fundamental difference between coaching and therapy is that therapists use clinical training to diagnose and treat mental illness. Coaches do not. Coaching is focused on clarifying and setting goals, increasing motivation and identifying barriers and solutions towards change. Generally speaking, insurance will not pay for coaching. Unlike therapists, coaches are not licensed at a state level, which means even if you don’t live in Indiana, I can offer you coaching services.

More than ever, companies are investing in the mental health of their employees. Untreated depression and anxiety costs the global economy a trillion dollars per year. One employee suffering burnout can cost a company almost twice their annual salary. It’s worthwhile for companies to provide their employees with the tools and support to manage their stress and care for their mental health.

I can provide engaging, dynamic training on how companies can improve productivity and retention with tools that foster a positive, compassionate culture that meets the human needs of its employees.

I specialize in burnout prevention and focus on training at the administrative level. I help companies encourage psychological safety and increase cohesion among employees. The goal of my training is to empower managers to strengthen their corporate cultures and improve rates of retention, which results in more productivity, better mental health and increased engagement across employee strata.
