My name is Karen Crawford Simms, and I am a licensed mental health therapist. I welcome clients of all identities, especially those from communities that have faced exclusion or inequity. I specialize in working with adults in transition—particularly those in teaching, caregiving, helping, or service professions—who are navigating relationship issues, parenting challenges, and life or professional changes such as pregnancy, marriage, divorce, menopause, or illness. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed principles, cultural competence, and over 30 years of experience, study, and commitment to authentic healing and wholeness. I attended seminary, and if invited, I will respectfully explore issues of faith as part of therapy. If you’d like to learn more please reach out!

I have inspired and motivated many interesting individuals, who make the choice, like you, to seek counseling. Our mutual goal is to make dynamic changes in your life. I offer a dedicated, experienced and professional listening ear, compassionate spirit, and a clear, supportive guiding voice. Learn to develop your strengths, coping skills, and energy so that you can better enjoy your life. Our focus is to change, to solve the problems at hand, and to learn how to problem solve for the future, and create lasting differences for an improved lifestyle. Energizing ourselves to face challenges and changes, celebrating moments and sustaining steps into 'new normal' are the hallmarks of effective collaboration in our counseling setting. After 35 + years of experience, I have learned from so many people, and hopefully they have learned also from our think-out-loud-in-a-safe-space time together. Some favorite change words: creativity, resilience, mindfulness, mutuality.

Sometimes in life we just need extra help in dealing with struggles we are experiencing. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 25 years of experience, I am here to help you progress forward, to help you to reach your goals, and to help you as you move towards your next level in life. I believe in working with you in a respectful, warm, compassionate, realistic and nonjudgmental manner. I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and Trauma Focused Therapy. As we work on the treatment plan, you may have some homework to do that will enable you to practice new strategies. Tools will be given to you during therapy. We will work together so you will become stronger and be empowered to experience the best part of yourself.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 22 years of experience counseling primarily adults in the state of Indiana. I believe in the practice of "unconditional positive regard," meaning I will never be judgmental or shaming during my time with you. Instead, I will be sincere, engaging, supportive and encouraging you in your journey towards a better you. My experience in counseling includes those with Depression, Grief, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety, ADHD, Relationship issues, Abuse (sexual and domestic), Shame-based Family of Origin issues, Co-Dependency, and Addictions. In therapy I use a blend of Adlerian and Cognitive Behavioral therapies, which focuses on how our thinking, feeling, and behavior can drive dysfunctional living, and conversely, how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be changed to produce a healthier, productive lifestyle. To that end, in addition to talk therapy, I use didactic, experiential, and the use of parables to help facilitate your progress. The use of "homework" I find keeps clients engaged in the therapy process while not in session. If you choose to work with me, together we will make a plan of treatment based on your goals for seeking treatment, and I will walk with you every step of the way. I am fully aware you have tried everything else before walking through the virtual door and I respect you for your courage in seeking help at this time.

Hello and welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Lynnette and I applaud you for beginning this journey we call therapy.

I have a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Chicago and over 37 years of professional experience. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have engaged individuals, couples, and families in a variety of settings addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, interpersonal and family conflict as well as parent-child relationships. I have also helped clients improve self-esteem, coping skills, adjust to major life changes as well as improve problem-solving and decision-making skills. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing are the primary approaches utilized and clients are encouraged to actively participate in the therapy process by setting their own goals and evaluating progress towards achieving them. Finally, I am concerned about all aspects of a client’s life including your physical, mental and spiritual health and well-being. Therefore, nothing is “off-limits” during therapy, and I encourage clients to bring any issue/concern they may have to therapy sessions. Thank you for allowing me to share my background with you.

I use a mix of trauma-informed and client-centered treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I also use humor in my sessions, because sometimes the best way to take power away from the uncomfortable thoughts is to point out the absurd parts of life.

I'm looking forward to meeting you and starting this journey together!
