Lindsay Bonebrake, DCoun, LCPC, RPT-S
Clinical Level Therapist | Independent Contractor (In-Person Community and Virtual)
Dr. Lindsay Bonebrake is a Doctor of Counseling (DCoun), Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), and Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor (RPT-S). She brings advanced doctoral training, clinical experience, and specialized expertise in play therapy to her work with children, adolescents, adults, and families.
Lindsay believes healing begins when people feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow. Her approach to therapy is relational, practical, developmentally informed, and evidence-based. She creates a space where clients feel safe to explore challenges, build useful skills, and make meaningful changes that carry into everyday life.
Lindsay specializes in working with children, adolescents, and families navigating anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioral concerns, parenting challenges, life transitions, and relational stress. As a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor, she has advanced training and experience in using play as a developmentally appropriate way for children to communicate, process emotions, strengthen coping skills, and build resilience. She also partners closely with parents and caregivers so that progress extends beyond therapy and into home, school, and community life.
She also enjoys working with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, adjustment challenges, and major life transitions. Her additional training in perinatal mental health and Mercier Therapy allows her to support individuals and families through seasons related to fertility, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and other significant family transitions when appropriate.
Lindsay’s goal is not simply symptom relief. She wants clients to develop greater confidence, stronger emotional regulation, healthier coping strategies, more connected relationships, and practical tools that continue working long after the therapy session ends.
Her work fits naturally with Midwest Anxiety’s approach of providing Mental Health for Real Life. Whether therapy takes place in an office, pediatric setting, school, community environment, or virtually, Lindsay focuses on helping clients apply what they are learning where life is actually happening.
Outside of her clinical work, Lindsay is a wife, mom, and professor. These roles contribute to her understanding of the complexity, responsibility, joy, and challenges that often come with caring for others while also learning how to care for yourself.
