Rebecca Russell, LCSW

At Mini Minds, a collaborative group practice in the Indianapolis area, we provide compassionate, brain-based care to support children and families in building emotional wellness. I offer individual therapy for children and adolescents, with over seven years of experience in both school-based and private practice settings. My primary focus is OCD and related anxiety disorders. I also work with ADHD, emotion regulation difficulties, and challenges related to chronic illnesses. I integrate exposure and response prevention (ERP), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help children build confidence, flexibility, and resilience.

I have focused on treating children and adolescents with OCD and related anxiety disorders for the past three years. In August 2022, I completed a four-day intensive workshop in ERP Therapy for OCD through the Cognitive Behavior Institute. Afterward, I received a year of individual supervision focused on applying ERP with children and families. I continue to expand my expertise through workshops and webinars offered by the IOCDF, NOCD, and Natasha Daniels, LCSW. I also regularly listen to OCD-focused podcasts to stay current on evidence-based practices and emerging topics in the field.
