Getting to know Venessa Bowers

UpLift Behavioral Health providers do not issue prescriptions for substances controlled by any federal or state agency or other drugs that may be harmful because of their potential for abuse. UpLift Behavioral Health reserves the right to limit the types of medications that may be prescribed by its doctors and nurse practitioners. All prescriptions furnished by UpLift Behavioral Health care providers are issued in accordance with applicable federal and state law as well as UpLift Behavioral Health policy. I place a great emphasis on developing a strong, authentic connection with my clients. To do this, I work to be culturally responsive, open, and honest in our work together. I have special interests and expertise in eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and trauma. As a queer-affirming therapist, I approach my work with members of gender, sexual, and relationship minorities from the perspective that your experiences, families, and identities are equal in value to those of your cishet counterparts. I believe that by attending to early emotional injuries, a path toward an authentic connection to yourself and others is not only possible but achievable. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Indiana University Bloomington and a Master's in Communication from Purdue University, which inform my holistic and empathetic approach to therapy.
