Grief counselors and therapists in Bloomington, IN

I’m an easy‐going, friendly therapist who believes therapy works best when you can be your real self—no pressure, no judgment. I bring a balance of empathetic listening, humor, and practical tools into our work together. Think of it like having someone who can both sit in the hard stuff with you and help lighten the load when you need a moment to breathe. I enjoy working with: Individuals experiencing depression, stress, anxiety, life transitions; Parents and families navigating communication issues or conflict; Preteens, Teens, and young adults, elderly; Individuals healing from difficult family dynamics or patterns; Caregivers.

Hello! I’m Sabrina, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience helping individuals navigate the complexities of mental health and life changes. My journey in this field began with a Bachelor’s in Social Work from the University of Saint Francis, followed by a Master of Social Work from IUPUI, and specialized counseling training at Marian University.

In my practice, Cardinal Rising, I believe that therapy should be as unique as the person sitting across from me. I bring a warm, down-to-earth approach to our sessions, often incorporating creative problem-solving to help you see your challenges through a new lens. While I provide a safe space to process your emotions, I am also deeply solution-oriented; we won’t just talk about the 'why'—we will work together on the 'how' to help you move forward.

I specialize in supporting clients through:

• Anxiety and Life Transitions: Navigating the 'what's next' with confidence.
• Crisis Intervention & Safety Planning: I am specifically trained in the CAMS (Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality) framework.
• School-Based Concerns & Family Dynamics: Drawing on my extensive background in school-based therapy.

Whether you are looking to break old patterns or simply need a supportive space to catch your breath, I am here to help you rise to your next chapter. I look forward to working with you!"

I believe that mental health is an important part of overall health and happiness. Each person has the ability to commit to and foster positive change in their lives. I always strive to work with each client as an individual, fostering their strengths and building healthy coping skills, insight, and empowering courage for change. I am passionate about women's health and issues. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

I have extensive experience in working with families, children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced various forms of trauma, both acute and chronic, as well as grief and loss, stress and anxiety, as well as other behavioral health issues.

I am so happy you are here!
