Self Esteem Therapists in Wayne County, IN

I prefer to work with adults and older adolescents struggling with addictions, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I have a vast amount of experience working in the field of trauma. Due to my experience working in community mental health, I also work well with those with intense mental health and substance abuse treatment needs. I have worked both inpatient and outpatient experiences, resulting in my flexibility to help stabilize in a crisis and to work with individuals at any level. A client who desires to accept partnership and engage in being open to change is the most ideal client.

I provide comprehensive, caring and professional therapuetic services with a specialization in mental health, trauma, adoption issues as well as individual/family counseling. My services enhance self esteem while providing coping skills and fostering resilience and empowerment to make positive change.

My ideal client is open minded and willing to do what is normally outside of their comfort zone. My ideal client is an individual who is dedicated to improving and committed to living a better life. Someone who is able to accept change and accept aspects that are out of their control. I have much experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, identity, addiction and many mental health issues. I thoroughly enjoy helping people overcome problematic areas and enabling individuals to live a full and meaningful life. I feel strongly about the empowerment of the client and healing the mind, body and spirit.

I am happy to support the community of Richmond, IN and beyond to gain insight and learn skills to improve their quality of life through evidence-based practices. I have experience working in multiple location, such as, The Richmond State Hospital, The Dayton VA, and private practice in the community.

Sunnie is dually licensed as a mental health counselor (LMHC), clinical addictions counselor (LCAC) and is a board-certified tele-mental health provider. She is also licensed as a Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio. Her clinical work is driven by empathy, collaboration, empowerment, connection, and the belief that each client can transform and reach their highest potential. With a compassionate and dedicated approach, she specializes in perinatal mood disorders, co-occurring disorders, substance use, trauma, and anxiety. She is deeply committed to supporting individuals on their journey toward emotional well-being.

I specialize in helping those with anxiety, depression, & relationship issues. Whether it is a relational, work, school, or family issue, talking about it with someone often aids in clarity and change. I want to help those individuals/families who are struggling to make sense of the chaos, look for understanding insight, and make those changes that will help them to start feeling more hopeful and excited about life again.

My ideal client would be someone who is committed to their healing journey and willing to reach their mental health and personal goals. My clients would be ones who may have anxiety, depression, substance use/abuse issues, and crises.

As a therapist, I am most excited to see clients motivated to explore their unknown strengths, widen their horizons, increase their abilities to make informed decisions and lead a life of meaning as they define it. Everyone I have worked with brings to therapy a foundation upon which to grow. Regardless of the problem, an enhanced sense of self is possible. Instilling hope of something better in life is one of my greatest motivations, and assisting others in achieving their goals drew me to this profession.

I have already counseled my ideal client. I worked with a client who came to me in her most significant time of need. She was ready to put in work and wanted to develop. She was diagnosed with Bipolar I and had several suicide attempts. She could externalize her mania and use fitness and wellness to push through her episodes. She is happy and healthy and uses her experiences to help others. My services involve psychotherapy using techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), with a trauma-informed framework.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges a problem exists, even if they don’t quite know what it is. The source of that issue can be discovered and processed through therapy, leaving the client with effective tools and skills to cope with and manage their emotions.

Have you been experiencing emotions intensely or noticing the absence of emotion? Are there aspects of your life and relationships you’d like to improve? Perhaps you want to understand yourself better, recover from traumatic experiences, or learn coping skills to navigate these challenging times. Maybe you aren’t sure what is holding you back and you want to talk to someone who can help.
