A safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment can provide comfort and peace when sharing and self-reflecting on your life journey. I provide various resources to help clients build up their self-care and coping skills outside of sessions so the work we do together is reflectant in your everyday life. We will work together to learn to recognize a personal perception of an external situation and how it impacts emotions, body sensations, and behaviors, cope with negative feelings, build positive communication skills, and reduce feelings of anxiety so you can live life as your most fulfilled self. I understand the importance of taking the time to listen to the client’s concerns and understand their perspective. Clear expectations and providing consistent recognition and validation are essential to success. My priority is always to ensure the client receives the best possible care, and I will put in the necessary time and effort to ensure this. Setting achievable goals to help individuals grow professionally and personally is key to therapy. Mind our mind, everyone deserves care and support for mental health. There is no official point in determining when to consider therapy; it is part of health promotion and disease prevention. Just like many conditions, early detection is the key to wellness.  

Therapy is a space to address life’s challenges with someone solely focused on your progress. Having support and practical tools during difficult seasons can be the difference between surviving and thriving. I specialize in supporting clients processing trauma, navigating life transitions, and managing anxiety and depression. While I’m trained in expressive arts therapy, I draw from various therapeutic modalities, combining empathy, creative tools, and clinical knowledge to find the best interventions for each client's unique needs. Together, we'll co-create a path toward healing and growth. I am a caring, creative, and empathetic listener who works collaboratively to support my clients holistically. I strive to create a calm, caring, and supportive environment where we can gain deeper understanding, explore practical solutions and facilitate inner growth. Taking the first step toward healing can be both scary and exciting, but you don't have to do it alone. Let's work together to help you build resilience, develop healthier habits, and feel empowered to create positive changes in your life. Schedule a free consultation to take the first step toward your brighter future.  

Counseling sessions in-person are generally considered the most helpful. For clients who are unable to drive, are ill or disabled, or don't have childcare, video or phone sessions with a counselor can be just what's needed. Depending on clients' counseling needs, therapists may require one or all of your sessions be conducted in-office.  

HIPAA compliant platform  

Due to the COVID19 virus crisis, I am happy to meet with clients via video or phone sessions in order to comply with safety concerns.  

Virtual therapy has been a welcome addition to my practice in recent years. I appreciate the ability to meet with clients in this format either exclusively or on an as-needed basis.  

In my practice I use an "Intensive" model: one individual or one couple, with one therapist, working six hours a day for three to five days. And, yes it is intense. Most of my clients have experience being in psychotherapy, often without the results they want. They have never, inside the "one hour weekly therapy" model, been able to really adress the trauma and neglect in their history that drives their painful inner experience. They have ben too busy addressing the brushfires of daily life. In an Intensive we get to the drivers. And we can do it online from the privacy of your home if you wish.  

I create a warm, supportive space for my clients where they are free to be themselves without the pressures of society and others. Therapy is a unique space where you can show up as is and begin to process and understand yourself and the root of your behaviors. I support clients with family and relational issues, communication, loneliness, school and work stress. I use a person-centered, feminist, and family systems approach that examines your unique individual needs, as well as examining the impacts of societal systems and family upbringing. Throughout our time together, we will explore your core beliefs, any negative patterns affecting you, and help you live more authentically as yourself. There is no better time than now to begin your healing journey! You deserve to be heard in a warm, compassionate therapeutic space.  

I provide online telehealth therapy through a secure and HIPAA compliant platform.

Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you. I specialize in working with anxious overachievers, perfectionists, and adults with ADHD. My clients are often worriers and people who struggle to meet their own exacting standards, even though to an outsider's view, they may appear to have it all together. Often my clients are so concerned and caring towards others, but can struggle to care for themselves and advocate for their own needs. In therapy, we work to introduce self-compassion and shift personal standards that may get in the way of enjoying your life. While I'm physically located in Indianapolis, IN, the majority of my clients see me virtually. Whether you live in Indiana, New York, Massachusetts, or a participating Psypact state, I'd love to connect with you and help you to live a more authentic, embodied, and joyful life.
