As a psychiatrist, I primarily provide medication management. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, self harm, trauma and related disoeders, stress management, other anxiety disorders and psychotic disorders. I currently order virtual outpatient/clinic services only to Florida, Georgia, Indiana, and Virginia. Feel free to call, e-mail or review the site.

The therapists at IPCI have a passion for working with clients to help them both cope better in the present as well as to explore, and work through, the underlying factors that fuel and perpetuate recurring problems like anxiety, depression, and relationship troubles. Many of our therapists have additional training in trauma work, including EMDR. Dr. Hanzlik is one of the few AASECT-Certified Sex Therapists in Indiana, and has trained other IPCI therapists to provide effective treatment and a specialization in helping patients work through sexual concerns. We also provide psychological evaluation to clarify diagnoses and provide recommendations for accommodations in academic settings.

Hey there! Feeling overwhelmed by life, school, or relationships? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. College can be an exciting time, but let’s be honest: it can also be a lot. Between juggling classes, friendships, family expectations, and figuring out your future, life can feel downright overwhelming. Maybe you’re dealing with stress or anxiety that won’t let up. Perhaps you’re struggling to manage perfectionism, self-doubt, or feeling stuck in a cycle of procrastination. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know that you’ve taken an incredible first step by exploring support—and I’m here to help. As a therapist, I work with college students like you who are navigating the stress and uncertainty that often comes with this stage of life. Whether you’re trying to balance school and personal life, sort through complicated emotions, or just figure out who you are and what you want, I’m here to offer you a safe, supportive space to unpack it all. What You Can Expect in Therapy Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or clinical—it’s about you. In our sessions, you’ll find a space where you can talk openly about what’s on your mind without fear of judgment. Whether it’s anxiety about grades, relationship struggles, or the pressure to have everything figured out, we’ll work through it together. We’ll explore what’s been holding you back and develop strategies that actually fit into your life. I use evidence-based approaches, mindfulness techniques, and tools for managing stress and anxiety, but I also believe in keeping things real, relatable, and sometimes even lighthearted. Growth doesn’t always have to feel heavy—it’s about learning how to navigate life in a way that feels true to you. Why College Students Choose Therapy Here are just a few of the reasons students come to me for support: Stress & Burnout: College life can feel like one big to-do list. We’ll work on managing your stress and setting boundaries so you can feel more in control. Anxiety & Perfectionism: Always striving for the best? Constantly overthinking? Let’s work together to quiet the pressure and find more balance. Relationships: Whether you’re navigating friendships, dating, or family dynamics, I can help you build stronger, healthier connections. Life Transitions: Moving to a new place, choosing a major, or figuring out what’s next after college? These changes can feel overwhelming, but they’re also opportunities for growth. Self-Discovery: College is a time of exploring who you are. We’ll work on building your confidence, tuning into your values, and creating a vision for your future. A Little About Me I’m Rachel McCrystal, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), and I’ve dedicated my career to helping people—just like you—navigate life’s challenges with care and confidence. Outside of therapy, I’m a mother, a military spouse, and a breast cancer survivor, so I deeply understand what it’s like to feel stretched thin and uncertain about the future. My own experiences have taught me how important it is to have someone in your corner—and that’s exactly what I aim to be for you. This Is Your Time I know it can feel scary to take that first step toward therapy, but I promise, it’s worth it. You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out—I’ll meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you figure it out. Therapy is about creating space to breathe, reflect, and grow. It’s about learning to trust yourself, embrace your strengths, and navigate challenges with more clarity and resilience. If you’re ready to stop feeling stuck and start moving forward, let’s connect. Your next chapter is waiting, and I’d be honored to be a part of it.

Is shame preventing you from fully experiencing life? Do you keep falling into unhealthy relationship patterns? Are you feeling overwhelmed or having difficulty adjusting to changes in your life? If these questions resonate with you, I am ready to walk with you along your healing journey. I utilize a variety of approaches, including EMDR, Trauma Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing and psychoeducation. I very much enjoy working with young adults and specialize in adjustment/life transitions, relationship concerns, perfectionism, adult children of alcoholics, family of origin issues, shame, trauma, and codependency. I promote self-discovery, which includes not only identifying problematic patterns and obstacles, but also exploring strengths and evidence of resiliency.

Hi, I’m so glad you are here. If your life has come to a crossroad and you would like someone to walk alongside you as you navigate your journey, you have come to the right place. Feeling uncertain, worried, or hopeless can be scary and hard to cope with. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to increase your self awareness and improve your ability to cope with stressors. My approach is client-centered, and targets balance between mind and body. The focus areas of my practice are women’s issues, bicultural identity, anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use disorder. I have several years of experience working in the field in inpatient and outpatient community mental health settings. I care about an array of social justice issues, most prominently disrupting racial oppression and promoting equity. I consider myself an ally to people who identify as LGBTQ+. I am deeply passionate about women's issues and navigating identity. I am so glad you are taking a moment to prioritize your well-being, and look forward to working with you!

Life may seem overwhelming, as if you are alone and no one understands you. Maybe you have an issue with someone, but the thought of conflict makes you shut down and avoid the situation. Perhaps you are anxious or consumed with worry or afraid of disappointing others. I have worked with many patients who struggle to stay connected in relationships or effectively communicate with others. You could struggle with anger issues and use anger to defend and protect yourself from being hurt.

Hi! I’m Jen (she/her) and I’m not perfect. It took me a long time to be able to say and accept that. In fact, I now embrace the things that are imperfect - all my difficulties and challenges. I have navigated these throughout my life and seek to help others navigate their difficulties and challenges, as well. My therapy style has been described as informal, direct, genuine, and humorous. I am fully authentic with my clients and I hope my clients will be fully authentic with me. I tend to be blunt and call people out on their BS - I say what you can’t or won’t and teach you to do that for yourself. Together, we will address your difficulties by connecting current thoughts, beliefs, and emotions to past experiences. We can’t fix the past, but we can change how we view it and move forward.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than ten years of experience in various facets of mental health. My philosophy includes a focus on whole mind and body wellness. I strive to deliver excellent, compassionate care through active listening and thoughtful collaboration with my patients – with a splash of humor. You will feel heard and validated, never rushed or ignored. My interest is in the person with a symptom rather than the symptom of a person. I specialize in depression, anxiety, mood-disorders, trauma-related disorders such as PTSD, and serve as an advocate for patients within the LGBTQIA+ community. I believe in evidence-based practice, with a primary focus on thoughtful medication management. I also provide weight management services with Semaglutide and Tirzepatide therapy for patients who qualify. I maintain a limited private practice to offer a high level of flexibility to my patients. Patients have direct access to me via secure portal and I can be available for rapid crisis intervention, if needed. I offer early morning, evening and weekend appointments via telehealth for your convenience. If you email through psychology today, please check your junk/spam for my reply. I look forward to walking this journey with you.

I work best with individuals who struggle with anxiety or low mood, or feel stuck in habits that no longer serve them. Many of my clients are neurodivergent, late-diagnosed, or highly self-aware but overwhelmed. They’re seeking real tools, not just talk, and want a therapist who’s authentic, supportive, and goal-oriented. If you’re ready to stop people-pleasing, reconnect with yourself, and create a life that feels meaningful, I’d love to work with you.
