PSYCHOLOGIST IN BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA
Therapy for Academics Navigating Major Life Changes
Sort through the noise of your thoughts. Gain perspective. Figure out your path forward.
You’re intelligent and high-achieving, and you’ve worked really hard to get where you’re at.
On paper, your life looks great - you’ve checked the boxes, met the milestones, and created a “successful” life.
Yet on the inside, you feel stuck and uncertain, and a bigger question continues to nag at you: “Is this it? Is this my life?”
The job that you worked so hard to get? Not so great when it comes with a horrible boss, working through your weekends, and a salary that doesn’t give you any breathing room. You feel lonely and want connection, but the only thing that you and your partner talk about these days is who’s picking up the kids from school.
You come home each day, hoping to get a break from work, only to feel stressed by your home life as well.
Your brain has always worked well for you, helping you to achieve, analyze, solve problems, and come out on the other side. It’s been the primary tool in your toolbox your entire life, one that’s always been reliable.
And yet this time, you feel like you’re spinning around on the hamster wheel without finding any helpful answers or insights, leaving you unsure as to whether it’s you or your circumstances that need to change.
I work with academics in their 30s and 40s who are navigating or contemplating major life changes, such as changing jobs or careers, getting a divorce, or moving to a new area.
I help my clients to sort through the noise of their thoughts so that they can confidently make decisions that feel grounded in their values, goals, and desires for their lives.
We’ll work together to figure out whether it’s the internal things that need to change, like your perspective, inner monologue, comfort level with setting boundaries, or maybe how present versus absent you are in your day-to-day life.
OR, we’ll determine whether it’s external things that need to change, such as leaving a relationship or a job that’s no longer a fit for who you are right now. And if you’re hesitant to change course, we’ll talk through the obstacles that are holding you back from starting a new chapter.
Life doesn’t have to be an endless series of Groundhog’s Days. There are many different pathways forward, but no matter which one you take, you can absolutely create a life full of joy, connection, and fulfillment.
