What empowers people to change? A clear direction and the tools needed to succeed. Thats why my counseling approach focuses on YOU and taking steps toward your own definition of success. With a mixture of existentialism, family systems, and cognitive therapies, we will work to discover what you hope to change in your life and walk through the steps needed to get there. Whether you are struggling with aspects of your relationships, identity, life stressors, grief, trauma, or you just need some general direction, we will focus on what matters to you.
Hi, my name is Sara! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of experience working alongside individuals as they navigate their mental health journeys.
Hello, and welcome. Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from your sense of purpose, fulfillment, or passion? Do you feel misunderstood by the people around you, or find yourself repeating unhealthy patterns that no longer serve you? Perhaps you want things to change but are unsure where to begin.
“It is okay not to be okay.” Life’s unexpected challenges can leave us feeling emotionally exhausted, uncertain, and alone. You do not have to navigate those experiences by yourself. I provide a private, safe, and supportive environment where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while building greater self-awareness, healing, and resilience.

I did not stumble into this work — I chose it, and I choose it every day. I am Bianca Gist, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois and Indiana.
I am also a former collegiate athlete, and that background shapes how I show up — I know what it feels like to carry a lot and still need someone genuinely in your corner. My experience is rooted in the spaces where people need the most and are often given the least — Chicago Public Schools, foster care, home-based services, and community mental health. Through my private practice, Her Sole Purpose LLC, I work with children, adolescents, student-athletes, and families using CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed care. I use what works for the person in front of me, not a one-size-fits-all approach. I work well with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the weight of environments that were not built for them. Therapy with me is honest, grounded, and focused on what actually helps you move forward — not just cope.
If any of this resonates, I would love to connect.


Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding OCD therapists in Indianapolis starts with looking for the right training, not just a general specialty match. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one approach some therapists use to support people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and many therapists are not trained in it. If you want support for intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or related anxiety, look for therapists who clearly list OCD and ERP in their profile. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand their approach, session style, and experience with concerns that may overlap with OCD.
Indianapolis has a wide mental health care market, from offices near downtown and Broad Ripple to virtual options across the area. More choices can make it harder to tell which therapist may be a good fit, especially when some profiles mention OCD experience while others note specific ERP training. As you compare options, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, in-person or virtual format, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can help you spot meaningful details about training, communication style, and how the therapist structures OCD care.
Therapy in Indianapolis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists who are accepting new clients, compare detailed profiles, check insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
