Counseling at The Green House

Navigating family separation, the foster care system, or life after care requires a deep, nuanced understanding of systemic trauma. We know that the foster care system impacts everyone differently, and generalized therapy often falls short.
You shouldn’t have to spend your sessions explaining the nuances of the system, court processes, or family separation to your therapist. Every single one of our providers is specifically trained in foster-care competent and trauma-informed care.
We understand the complexities of attachment, transitions, and systemic challenges. You don’t have to explain the nuances of the system to us. We are committed to providing a safe, informed, and non-judgmental space for every individual navigating these journeys.

It’s PDA Day, and we’re talking about one of the most misunderstood profiles in the neurodivergent community.
PDA stands for Pathological Demand Avoidance, but many in the community prefer “Pervasive Drive for Autonomy.” Why? Because it’s not about avoiding things—it’s about a fundamental neurological need to be in control of one’s own safety.
When a demand is placed on a PDAer, their amygdala can perceive it as a threat. Compliance feels dangerous.
If you’ve felt exhausted, judged, or at a loss for how to help your child, we’re here to help you bridge the gap. We specialize in neuro-affirming therapy that honors the child’s autonomy while giving parents the tools to help them find felt safety.

Gas is up. Groceries are up. We see you doing the math, and we never want your mental health to be on the chopping block when things get tight.

Here is how we help keep therapy accessible:
💻 Go Virtual: Skip the commute! You can switch to telehealth sessions any time to save on gas
💳 HSA/FSA payments: You can use your Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account to pay for sessions using pre-tax dollars
📄 Superbills: If you have out-of-network benefits, we provide the documentation you need to seek reimbursement from your insurance company
📉 Sliding Scale: We offer adjustable rates based on your annual household income
🌟 Lower Price Points: We have a team of excellent newer clinicians. These are talented professionals—often bringing a wealth of life and other experience to their work—who offer sessions at a more accessible rate.

Don’t wait until you’re “running on empty” to reach out. Let’s talk about how we can make this work for you.

For many donor conceived people, questions about identity, origins, and belonging don’t have simple answers. Some people feel grief. Some feel curiosity. Some feel nothing — until they do. There is no right way to feel and many ways to navigate search, reunion, and/or late discovery.
At Counseling at The Green House all of our therapists have training in adoption-informed and donor-conception-aware care. Whether you’re donor conceived yourself, a parent raising a donor conceived child, or navigating a late discovery — we are here to support your journey.

For some DNA tests are about ancestry percentages, for others it is more about truth. For adoptees, donor conceived individuals, and those navigating misattributed parentage, commercial DNA testing has cracked open what closed records, sealed files, and family secrets could not. It has connected people to siblings they didn’t know existed, answered questions that went unanswered for decades, and provided a kind of relief that comes specifically from knowing.

We also know that DNA doesn’t reach everyone equally. Some inter-country adoptees and others may not be able to be helped in the same way.

If you’ve been sitting with questions about your origins, DNA testing is one tool. If you already know your history, adding your DNA to databases costs little and could mean everything to someone still searching.

⚠️ Content note: sexual violence and trauma
Some things are hard to name. Some things live in the body long before the words form. Maybe you feel it in the tension you carry, the exhaustion that doesn’t make sense, the way certain moments can pull you somewhere else without warning. That’s a nervous system that survived something.
Sexual trauma shows up in hypervigilance, anxiety, fatigue, chronic pain, and dissociation. It doesn’t just live in memory. Deep healing often requires more than talk and healing is possible even without speaking the words.
We work where trauma lives — in the body, in the nervous system, in the parts of you that words don’t reach yet. Through approaches like Brainspotting, IFS, and music therapy, we follow your pace, honor your agency, and let you lead.
Healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. It doesn’t happen on anyone else’s timeline. You can start at the edges and follow your own path, your own timeline.
Whenever that is, we’ll be here. scheduling@greenhouseindy.com
