Therapists for college students near Indianapolis, IN

I have been in private practice since 1995, providing mental health counseling to undergrad and graduate students who may have difficulties living away from home, strenuous academic schedules, trouble making friends and fitting in, as well as stress related to dissertation and associated exams. When the relatively brief nature of on-campus counseling isn’t enough, students appreciate the easy access and privacy of online counseling through the Google Meet app.

We are a Christian Counseling office who believes in every individuals unique value and worth. We seek to provide encouragement, acceptance, understanding, and empathy throughout the clients experience. We recognize each persons individual needs and work to provide solutions and education to reduce stress, improve daily functioning and provide positive results in every day interactions.

I specialize in working at the intersection of queerness, neurodivergence, and trauma. I am passionate about working with those who belong to the LGBTQIA2S+ and neurodivergent communities, parents, military/veterans, and those with complex trauma. I lead a queer- and neuro-affirming practice. Many of my clients are trans/non-binary, Autistic, ADHDers, and trauma survivors. I currently see adults, adolescents aged 13 and older, and families and partners, including those in polyamorous/CNM relationships. I know you are the expert on yourself; my role is to hold space, offer tools, and be a guide for your healing journey. I use a combination of evidence-based trauma therapies, yoga/mindfulness, and an understanding of your body's response to trauma. I strive to be aware of the impact of systemic oppression and marginalization on holistic health. I use authenticity, creativity, compassion, and humor to create a space where you can feel connection and validation. My goal is to help you feel comfortable getting a little uncomfortable, in order to move into an experience of healing. I am committed to creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for our relationship, where you can engage in self-inquiry and healing in mind and body. I'm always engaging in continued learning so that I can provide the most informed and updated support for you. I look forward to hearing from you and working together!

My name is Michael Whiteside, and I am a compassionate, communal, and comedic Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping others regain control of their life and living life to the fullest. Together, we will partner in helping you have a life worth living by understanding how the pain of the past is interrupting the present and jeopardizing the future. During therapy (individual, couples, family, etc.), life coaching, and emotional support animal assessments, I utilize a combination of CBT, psychodynamic interpersonal, self-psychological, strengths-based, and ecological perspectives, I aim to help the client identify their greatest goals when addressing their traumas, fears, and psychological challenges. Together we investigate their past in order to understand how these past challenges are developing in the present and jeopardizing their future. I empower them to reclaim their inner power and live the life they desire, not simply the one they live.

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!

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 think one of the main issues people struggle with today is cultivating resiliency, and therefore my focus in therapy has always been toward empowerment and strengthening clients from a multi-systems approach. I believe positive mental health and a strong self-care routine are a valuable asset to individual growth, and that therapy isn't meant to just be a reactive form of treatment, but one that is a regular part of all our routines. My mission is: to help people identify and meet their individual goals while being empowered and supported; to promote positive self-image; to foster emotional, intellectual, and socio-cultural autonomy; to provide education on life skills, emotion regulation, and coping; and to explore change for a meaningful and fulfilled life. I have a multitude of experiences that has prepared me to assist a wide variety of ages and diverse populations. I am EMDR-trained, and can provide this form of treatment as needed. I would greatly welcome the opportunity to work with you on your journey and be your supportive guide throughout therapy and your life experience.

Have you experienced overwhelming stress in your life? Do you often feel unseen, unwanted, or under-appreciated? Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or easily irritated? Maybe you’re not even sure why, but you have a feeling something is just not working well. Your relationships don’t offer the support you wish they did. You feel isolated, overwhelmed and angry much of the time, or you are either avoiding conflict or having more arguments than you’d like. You toggle between wanting to people-please to feel seen and wanting to run off to live alone on an island somewhere off grid. But you know there’s more than this cycle you feel trapped in, a way to feel better, to understand the deeper roots of what’s contributing to your stress, and a way to break free. I help guide you in understanding and managing your emotions, developing coping strategies, and facilitating healing and growth. I provide a safe and supportive space for you to process your experiences, helping you regain a sense of control and resilience. In gardening, the unwanted or overgrown parts of a plant must be trimmed back or cut away to allow for fruit or blossoms to grow. Sometimes, we need to do the same in our life. Although pruning may sound painful and difficult, it is not a punishment. Pruning enhances growth by removing what inhibits us and allows us to grow. It may take some work, but you will not be alone.
