Gottman Approved Member

Provides Virtual sessions and In-person sessions - Columbus

Hello and welcome! My name is Christy Sutton and I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the State of Indiana and a National Certified Counselor (NCC) through the National Board of Certified Counselors. In 2015, I earned my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Argosy University, an institution accredited by CACREP. Currently, I'm in the research phase of my dissertation, focusing on National Guard members and their spouses as part of my pursuit of a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision. As the spouse of a veteran, I feel privileged to provide support to our military and their families.

I adhere to a client-centered theoretical approach, incorporating evidence-based practices to support, encourage, educate, and empower my clients. Emphasizing collaboration, I work with clients to identify goals and employ strategies tailored to their needs. Together, we aim to enhance awareness, communication, personal growth, and healing in both individual and relational contexts. Recognizing the significance of focusing on clients' strengths, I assist them in identifying coping strategies to address cognitive distortions and negative behaviors. In my therapeutic approach, I utilize various evidence-based techniques, all while highlighting the importance of self-care to foster a healthier and happier lifestyle.

Over the past eight years, my professional journey has afforded me valuable experiences in pursuing my passion for assisting others. I have employed individual, family, and group therapies in diverse settings, including home-based, school-based, community-based, and traditional clinical environments. My scope of practice spans working with children and adolescents, as well as adults of all ages, including couples and families, representing diverse backgrounds.

My expertise extends to addressing issues such as trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship challenges, and mood disorders. I have a substantial background in working with individuals and families involved with the Department of Child Services, parole, and probation.

Throughout my career, I have actively engaged in directly serving and assisting individuals, equipping them with the necessary skills to navigate emotionally distressing situations and cultivate a positive life perspective. Additionally, I integrate faith into my counseling approach when it aligns with the preferences of those I am counseling.

I am enthusiastic about the prospect of working with you and contributing to your journey towards a positive and fulfilling life!

Shelby Blaich, Therapist

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here and considering taking the first step toward therapy.

A little about me: I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychological Science, with minors in Criminal Justice and Social Work, from Ball State University in December 2022. I recently completed my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Liberty University in August 2025. During my graduate studies, I gained hands-on experience as a counseling intern, where I had the privilege of applying my knowledge and skills to support clients in meaningful ways.

Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time with my family, singing loudly in the car, going on road trips, playing with my dogs, and spending time near the water—it always brings me peace!

I know life can feel overwhelming at times, but you don’t have to navigate the journey alone. Together, we’ll create a warm, supportive space where you can safely explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is to empower you to face life’s challenges with resilience, find balance, and foster personal growth. I’ll be here to listen, support, and encourage you every step of the way as you work toward a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.

My approach to counseling is integrative, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic methods to best meet your unique needs. By blending cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and person-centered approaches, we’ll create a personalized plan that supports your healing, growth, and overall well-being.

If you’re interested in therapy or have questions, please feel free to reach out. I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward growth and self-discovery.

Stephanie Milan, LCSW

I employ an integrative counseling approach, drawing from various therapeutic techniques to tailor our sessions to your unique needs. My toolkit includes EMDR, for which I've received formal training, and DBT techniques that I incorporate when appropriate, though I haven't undergone official DBT certification. I also utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and person-centered approaches.

My primary areas of focus are ADHD, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. By combining different methods, we can address your specific challenges holistically, creating a personalized path toward healing, growth, and overall well-being.

I provide a supportive, judgment-free space for individuals navigating these and other mental health concerns. My flexible approach aims to foster healing, growth, and empowerment. I believe therapy should feel natural, honest, and even enjoyable.

As an animal lover, my three dogs—Luke, Ashoka, and Sampson—sometimes join sessions, and clients are welcome to bring their pets. This can add an extra layer of comfort and support to our therapeutic environment.

Together, we'll create a path to well-being that feels right for you, combining various therapeutic techniques and a warm, accepting atmosphere to address your unique needs and goals.
