Who I Am

Hello! I'm Sarah Trueblood. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing psychotherapy to adult individuals in the state of Indiana. I have over 15 years of experience working in the mental health field treating a range of issues including

  • depression

  • anxiety

  • personality disorders

  • codependency

  • addiction

  • eating disorders

  • relationship issues

  • general life challenges or changes

I also have a special interest in working with individuals struggling to set boundaries in toxic relationships. I strive to support you on your journey and provide concrete strategies on how to cope and assertively communicate with difficult people. I believe that there's no generic, one size fits all approach to therapy, so I incorporate aspects of several different therapies and tailor the therapy experience to fit your needs. I'm here to help you delve into what keeps you from being the best version of yourself at this point in time, and to provide tools to help you achieve your goals. Congratulations on taking this difficult first step towards making a change!

A little about me…

  • I will typically have some kind of a drink accompanying me during our session whether it be water, coffee or tea. I encourage you to do the same!

  • I’ve been told that I am relatable and easy to talk to.

  • Sarcasm is my language.. you will get the hang of it!

  • I have lived in Indiana my whole life and don’t plan on going anywhere.

  • I have several hobbies including crocheting, cooking, buying therapy books, listening/reading/watching anything related to true crime (even before it was cool), diamond painting, watercolor painting, and jogging (the g’s are very soft). I’ve run the Mini Marathon three times and plan to do it again in the future.

  • I’m married with two young boys and a cat.
