Therapists for college students near Indianapolis, IN

The majority of my clientele are in undergraduate or graduate programs. I assist clients in working through the stress, anxiety and uncertainty of this pivotal point in life.

If you are reading this, I would like to welcome you to my practice and encourage you to pursue the positive changes you are seeking. Life can be hard, change is difficult; however, I believe by addressing these issues together, finding a balanced and healthy path is possible. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps with understanding the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, as well as other effective methods for dealing with life's ups and downs. I am a certified eating disorder specialist and have experience working with those who are struggling to address unhelpful eating patterns, and body image distress. Whether you are adjusting to the changes of being away from home, academic challenges, anxiety, depression, or managing new relationships, you will find a comfortable and welcoming environment in which to collaboratively address these issues together. I look forward to hearing from you.

If anxiety, intrusive thoughts, OCD, phobias or depressive thoughts take up too much space in your life, I will work with you to uncover their sources. You can establish and engage in useful coping skills that will allow you to spend less time battling your thoughts and more time living the life you want. If you're a couple struggling with relationship concerns, I will work with you to restore harmony in your relationship and strengthen your connection. I aim to provide a safe, warm and non-judgmental environment for my clients to explore their emotions, while also feeling comfortable and validated when sharing experiences, thoughts and behaviors. I practice using evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Radically Open Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (RO-DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), as well as self-compassion and mindfulness techniques. Gottman Method Couples Therapy informs my work with couples. If you choose therapy as a next step, I would be honored to work with you and support you in your journey of self-growth and healing!

Hi! My name is Stacy, and I am really happy you're here. College can be exciting... and overwhelming. Between classes, relationships, expectations, and figuring out who you are, it is A LOT to carry on your own. Having worked in higher ed for over 20 years, I recognize the unique pressures you face - performance demands, identity exploration, and finding the balance between independence and support. I know one thing for sure - the college transition is a rocky one for most of us and reaching out for support is one of the smartest things you can do. I work with LGBTQ+, athlete, and faith-based students as well as those struggling with addiction, body and/or eating issues. Together, we can address any challenge you are facing.

My practice is unique for the variance in working with children, adults, families, groups and couples therapy. Also in the type of issues such as trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, self-harm and more. I give back to the profession by providing supervision for students of social work, Certified Social Workers for licensure and provide trainings for licensed therapists to become supervisors. I enjoy seeing even the most minute changes in a person as they move forward in life.

Life can be difficult. Counseling shouldn’t be. When you’re struggling to cope with the challenges in your life, starting therapy is a courageous step toward change. In a complex world, we believe in straightforward, compassionate support. If you are feeling out of balance or in distress, it can feel defeating to reach out for help and be met with unreturned calls, waitlists, or therapists who are not taking new clients. Not addressing your issues with a professional can often lead to an increase of symptoms while you wait for your first appointment. We believe that you shouldn’t have to go through this alone. At Counseling Simplified, we help you feel better. We have no waitlists, evening and weekend appointments, and many of our therapists can see you within a week of your first contact. We make the process easy because we understand that you don’t need any more stress. At Counseling Simplified, we meet you where you are at and help you heal. At Counseling Simplified, we value your unique experiences and guide our sessions with genuine curiosity and we continually expand our areas of expertise to meet diverse needs. Counseling is our passion. We will assist you in feeling more connected, motivated and dialed into life. Book your appointment now with one of our therapists to get started.

Are you someone that feels trapped and hopes that life has more to offer? Do you have goals and dreams that are collecting dust? Do you feel unappreciated or question yourself as a mother/father or partner? I know that feeling very well. I want to help you re-imagine a life where you are not chained down by indoctrinated, conditioned beliefs. I want to help you peel back the layers of life that leave you feeling stuck on the hamster wheel so you can regain your voice and live a life of empowerment, clarity and freedom. I offer a space for comfort, safety and trust so clients can tap into the parts of themselves that are holding them back. I focus on the body, mind and spirit as a whole unit to provide optimal wellness by offering compassion, empathy and authenticity. I help clients find their authentic self through their unique narrative. If you are experiencing any of these issues or just curious about the process, please reach out to me.

My goal is to help you develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I draw from interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, and acceptance and commitment therapy approaches to create a space that feels safe, compassionate, and tailored to you. Together, we’ll work to understand your experiences, develop new coping strategies, strengthen your resilience, and help you move toward the life you want. I believe therapy works best when it’s a partnership—one where you feel seen, heard, and empowered.

It's my belief to "Keep life simple." Life is stressful enough. Balancing work, family, social life, friends, and relationships can be overwhelming at times. I practice from a harm reduction holistic theoretical orientation. It combines person-centered (respect for autonomy) with CBT/systemic therapy (a critical look at culture and attachments). By identifying wants and needs, I can assist clients with locating triggers and establishing healthy coping skills to alleviate any mental, emotional, or physical stress. I work particularly with parents and clients dealing with ADHD, Life choices, anxiety, self-esteem and accountability. I assist clients in adjusting to unexpected life transitions by constructing healthier boundaries with themselves and others to balance their lifestyles. I value the importance of creating a supportive, transparent, and collaborative relationship throughout the therapy process. I do this by providing a safe space for clients to embrace their vulnerabilities. Difficult experiences often show up in the body. Accessing embodied experience helps clients evolve. These shifts in the body have a corresponding effect on our actions, routines, and relationships. Through mindful awareness, we discover how the body holds our experiences. We learn to recognize habitual patterns and create new ones. The healing starts now...

Life doesn’t come with a manual, especially during transitions. You’re trying to figure out who you are, where you're going, and how to manage everything from school, relationships, work, and just... existing. Maybe you're in college or recently graduated, or you're trying to adult for real—but anxiety, low motivation, or just feeling stuck is getting in the way. If you're navigating big life transitions, struggling with overthinking, anxiety, burnout, loneliness, or mild depression, you're not alone. These years can be exciting—but also overwhelming, isolating, and confusing. You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I work with Adults, emerging adults and young professionals who are ready to feel more grounded, confident, and connected. Together, we’ll create a space where you can explore your thoughts without judgment, build tools that actually work for you, and move from just surviving to genuinely living. Therapy with me is collaborative, real, and tailored to what you need—not a one-size-fits-all approach. I bring warmth, honesty, and a sense of humor when it's needed most. Whether you're new to therapy or returning to it, you're welcome here. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Let’s start where you are. Please schedule directly with my website
