Hi! My name is Maggie Peters and I have been a Mental Health Counselor for about 10 years. I have worked with a wide variety of populations and do my best to create a welcoming, open minded and creative environment for my clients to feel comfortable and grow. I have a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have worked as an outpatient therapist/mental health counselor in many settings. I am also experienced in crisis intervention, as I used to work for the 988 suicide prevention hotline. I work with a wide variety of ages and populations, including children and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar, ADHD, trauma and suicide/self harm. I enjoy exploring coping strategies, implementing healthy, daily practices and processing stressors. I am a proud member of the LGBTQ community and have a lot of experience surrounding gender identity, acceptance and positive self esteem/self worth.

Candis Lavallais

Therapist

Virtual • Indiana


I am a licensed clinical therapist with a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.

Throughout my career, I have worked with adults, adolescents, couples, families, young professionals, and parents, helping them navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress management, self-esteem, and burnout. I also have experience supporting individuals facing grief and loss, marital concerns, career transitions, postpartum adjustment, and chronic illnesses.

I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in both insight and practical tools for change. I value authenticity in the therapeutic relationship and believe meaningful progress happens when clients feel truly seen and understood.

Above all, I view therapy as a partnership. My role is to bring clinical expertise, curiosity, and care—while honoring you as the expert of your own lived experience.

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.

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.

My name is Brenda Hardin, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 20 years of professional experience. I am licensed in Indiana, New Jersey, and Virginia. I view therapy as a collaborative and empowering process that creates space for healing, personal growth, and meaningful change.

I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions.
