Therapists for college students near Indianapolis, IN
* ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Over the course of our lives, we experience life changes and unexpected events. Therapy is a place where one can process and adjust to these transitions and events. Through my education and experience, I have learned how to help clients work through these changes. Therapy will not only help one learn skills during this time of adjustment, but it will also help one learn how they can utilize these skills and strengths when they need them in the future. Over the past few years, through practicums and work experience, I have learned how to help clients across many populations adjust to life's changes. Please call or email with any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and how we can work together to help you move forward.

My undergraduate focus was in math and science. However, through the years I decided that relationships were more important and realized that most individuals don't have the tools to form good marriage, family, and friendship connections. Much of this is the result of poor parenting that leaves an individual fearful, without confidence, and having no idea how to navigate life's challenges. Children are precious and deserve to feel loved and secure. This is difficult if their parents weren't nurtured and shown how (primarily by example) to have a loving marriage. We deserve love in marriage, and our children need that example. My graduate studies at the University of Southern California were in sociology (sex and gender focus) and marriage and family therapy. I have years of experience in parenting, responding to domestic violence, treating pornography addiction, and helping clients who are depressed and/or anxious.

Welcome! I'm Emily Koehler, a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Indiana. I am trained in EMDR, Yoga for 12 Step Recovery, Daring to Rest, and Yoga for Trauma. I take a holistic approach to mental health and wellness. I especially love to work with college students who tend to be high achievers and perfectionists, and want to find a way of living that honors their true nature and strengths. Our sessions may include mindfulness practices, exploring what works best for YOU. I enjoy supporting clients as they learn to listen to their inner wisdom and gain clarity on next right steps. It takes courage to reach out for support, and I look forward to working with you.
As a therapist rooted in a client-centered approach, I am committed to providing you with empathy, compassion, and a peaceful, supportive environment where you can safely explore your past traumas, and manage stress, anxiety, depression, and more. Together, we will work collaboratively to uncover and address underlying trauma, develop effective coping strategies, and build self-awareness. I have experience working with individuals facing a variety of mental health and substance use disorders. In our sessions, I draw upon evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, while also being able to integrate faith into our work if it aligns with your values. Healing and growth are not destinations but ongoing processes of discovery, transformation, and becoming. My role as your therapist is to walk alongside you on this lifelong journey, fostering holistic change and resilience every step of the way.
Are you ready to change how you feel and break old, unhealthy patterns? Perhaps you feel confused and defeated in your existing relationships or you lost a loved one? If you are dealing with painful and traumatic past experiences and are unsure where to start your healing process, I am honored to be a part of your healing journey. My aim in therapy is to create a warm, caring, and secure environment where you can develop a profound sense of self-awareness and understanding. I feel incredibly humbled to support you in your journey of clarity, self-awareness, and self-fulfillment. By utilizing collaborative methods and evidence-based treatments such as EMDR, ACT, and IPT, I tailor my approach to meet the specific needs and cultural backgrounds of adults facing various life struggles, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, ADHD, and issues related to low confidence. I believe that we all possess inner strength, and sometimes we need a little assistance to reach our highest potential. I also offer ADHD and psychological testing for adolescents and adults. I offer in-person and telehealth sessions at my office in Zionsville. For more information, please visit my website and feel free to reach out via email. Thank you.

I work with individuals across a wide range of ages and backgrounds. I enjoy supporting teens and young adults and also have previous experience working with populations who struggle with autism spectrum disorder and other cognitive delay. I am very passionate about helping to navigate identity development, life transitions, mood and personality-related challenges, as well as healing from past trauma to evolve into your ideal self. I want to help build a strong sense of self and emotional awareness while also growing more confident and self-assured in the ever-changing world that we live in. My practice blends a multitude of evidence-based practices and mindfulness strategies to help you understand your thoughts, emotions, and patterns from a place of curiosity and growth, not judgment and shame. My approach is person-centered and focused on helping you evolve into the person you are most proud to be. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward becoming the version of yourself you feel most connected to, I would be honored to walk alongside you. I invite you to schedule a session and take the next step towards a life that feels aligned, peaceful, and yours.
I work best with students who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or trying to make sense of a lot of emotions at once. You might be navigating big transitions, relationship stress, academic pressure, or feeling unsure about who you are or what comes next. Sometimes everything looks “fine” on the outside, but internally it feels heavy or hard to manage. The students I work with are often thoughtful and self-aware, but may feel stuck, overthinking, or emotionally drained. They’re looking for a space where they can slow down, understand what they’re feeling, and learn how to manage stress in a way that actually works for them. If you’re open to exploring your experiences, building emotional awareness, and finding more balance and clarity, we would likely be a good fit.
