Catherine Cabrera
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LMHC
You're the reliable friend, the caring partner, the hard worker, the one 'no one has to worry about' because you have it all together. But let's face it - you’re EXHAUSTED and feel like you're running out of super glue trying to keep yourself together. You overthink everything, say “yes” to things and then immediately regret it, and constantly wonder if you're doing enough—if YOU are enough. If you struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, or feeling lost, you're definitely not alone—help is here for you! I specialize in helping adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, and over-functioning and together, we’ll untangle the all the nitty gritty beliefs and patterns that are keeping you overwhelmed, disconnected, and burnt out.
Therapy with me is a space where you can let go of the mask, explore what really matters to you (not anyone else), and start living from a place of authenticity instead of obligation, since that's what you really want! Whether you’re trying to quiet that inner critic, set healthier boundaries, improve your relationship with yourself and loved ones, or reconnect with who you are beyond the roles you play - I'd love to support you!
Our work will focus on healing the root causes, not just managing symptoms—so that you can feel more authentic, confident, and connected to yourself and others because let's be real, you deserve it! This is your space to be supported, to be seen, to connect with the real you!

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
Adolescents and adults navigating their faith and sexuality (LGBTQ+ affirming), anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, grief, trauma, pregnancy/postpartum, family of origin concerns, identity development, and general life stressors and transitions would particular enjoy working with me. Multicultural couples and families navigating culture clashes, estrangement, faith transitions, and sexual and intergenerational trauma, especially for BIPOC populations, are treatment specialties. Psychedelic psychotherapy preparation and integration are also available with referrals to clinics and others who can provide medication administration. Psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses such as autism, bipolar disorder, ADHD, etc., Independent Medical Evaluations (IME), worker’s compensation, preemployment for first responders, and fitness-for-duty-evaluations are also offered. Approaching patients with cultural humility is a core value at Malak Psychology honoring who you are, your ancestors, and the indigenous land we occupy.
Grounded in decolonizing mental health, liberation, and feminist psychologies, my practice employs multimodal approaches, including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, cognitive processing therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, somatic experiencing, emotionally focused couples therapy, Gottman, family systems, psychoanalysis, and more.
Empowering you to forge your unique path, I serve as a guide with an emphasis on agency and self-determination. Collaborative wellness plans allow participants to decide the depth of exploration into subjects. I ensure evidence-based, collaborative, and individualized care by incorporating peer-reviewed research and indigenous knowledge systems.

Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you. I specialize in working with anxious overachievers, perfectionists, and adults with ADHD. My clients are often worriers and people who struggle to meet their own exacting standards, even though to an outsider's view, they may appear to have it all together. Often my clients are so concerned and caring towards others, but can struggle to care for themselves and advocate for their own needs. In therapy, we work to introduce self-compassion and shift personal standards that may get in the way of enjoying your life. While I'm physically located in Indianapolis, IN, the majority of my clients see me virtually. Whether you live in Indiana, New York, Massachusetts, or a participating Psypact state, I'd love to connect with you and help you to live a more authentic, embodied, and joyful life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I know choosing a therapist can be difficult. I like to provide an atmosphere that is collaborative, nurturing, and focused on helping you achieve your goals. I do this using therapeutic techniques that are evidenced-based which means these methods have consistently been shown effective through research. I make every effort to balance kindness with a focus on getting you to where you want to be. This balance results in people feeling understood while creating meaningful change.

Leslie Worley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
I believe therapy is truly a collaborative effort for healing. You are the expert and the therapist is a conduit. I’m a licensed social worker committed to helping people learn how to live by their values instead of letting emotions and thoughts control their lives. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs and transforming them into effective ways of living that brings people in touch their values. In life, we will always experience a full spectrum of emotions, it's all in our reactions to those emotions in which we build a life we're excited about.
In my practice, I will never ask the person sitting across from me to do something I myself have not done. Meaning, I live my life by my therapy approaches and don't just use them as an "intervention." I also use a lot of humor, direct and transparent communication.
Personally, I love dogs (have two of my own), reading, painting and engaging in sports or exercise!

Whether you are down the street or hundreds of miles away, trust that you will feel the same warmth, connection, and attention from me over video as you would face-to-face.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Pain often shows up when there’s a gap between who we are right now and who we hope to become. This disconnect can be shaped by internal challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, physical health issues, or unresolved trauma, as well as external pressures such as difficult relationships, job demands, or broader systems of inequality and injustice. All of these factors can make it harder to recognize what truly matters to us and take steps in that direction. As therapists, our aim is to support your mental well-being, help you reconnect with your values, and empower you to build a life that feels more fulfilling, purposeful, and aligned with who you want to be.

Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
When you look for a therapist what they really bring to the table is the experiences they have seeing people in similar situations and the paths those people took to improve their lives. For background, I started my career in 96, provided residential treatment, worked as a school counselor and then moved into clinical work providing and supervising crisis services for 10 years. By the time I was licensed in 2016 I'd worked with every disorder in the book at some point.
I started my own practice in 2019 and began focusing on various issues of emotional dysregulation particularly in ages 13 and up. I've done a lot of work with borderline personality traits, anxiety / OCD, depression and various forms of trauma (trauma certified CCTP) including sexual / military / Emergency Services. I'd say I have an unusually large amount of experience survivors of female sexual perpetrators, dissociation, depression / anxiety, co-dependence, and existential concerns—especially in teenagers or gifted teens navigating complex emotional landscapes.
