Reaching out to a therapist can be a challenging first step. I am here to help when you are ready. My goal is to be a support in my client’s life and walk alongside them in their therapeutic journey. I have developed a passion for helping teens and adults to develop coping skills to work through and process day to day stressors.

In therapy my goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment, where each client can feel comfortable to explore their thoughts, feelings, and emotions. When working with clients I utilize cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and mindfulness techniques to help develop a therapeutic style that reflects the client’s needs.

Thomas Harmes is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner  (PMHNP) with over 6 years of mental health experience. He completed his bachelors and masters degrees in nursing from IUPUI. He has worked in psychiatry for his entire nursing career. He has experience working throughout the lifespan, working in an inpatient acute care behavioral health hospital in the Indianapolis area as well as seeing the lifespan in an outpatient private practice in Boulder, Colorado.

His practice style is integrative, holistic and person centered. He believes each individual’s treatment should be unique and centered around their desires and goals as an active participant of the treatment team. The first visit will consist of a 90 minute evaluation to develop a care plan for based on history and goals. Afterwards will have regular 30 minute follow up appointments to monitor progress and maximize the efficacy and minimize the side effects of medications.

In his free time Thomas enjoys playing video games, watching football, ending time outside with his wife and 2 dogs and enjoying the food scene in Indianapolis.
