Who We Are

Circle City Counseling, LLC opened its doors to children and families on the northside of Indianapolis in 2016.

Owner and therapist Lindsay Gayle, LMHC, began her journey as an elementary school counselor, but it didn't take long for her to realize that she wanted to provide more direct and ongoing therapy. Her passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges led her to transition into the role of a school-based therapist, through an agency for five years. While these roles were fulfilling in their own right, Lindsay felt a strong calling to offer more specialized care, especially as she embraced the responsibilities of raising her own children.

In response to this calling, Lindsay established her independent private practice, initially operating as a solo practitioner. Recently however, she has been diligently working on expanding her practice's offerings. Plans are underway to fulfill a new office space that will accommodate supervising clinicians, kids' yoga classes and various other group therapies, host bodywork practitioners, and employ play therapy residents in training (with the latter slated to launch in summer 2024).

Our practice does not accept insurance. However, we understand that some families may have out-of-network benefits, and we are more than willing to provide a superbill that can assist in their reimbursement process. Session costs vary based on clinician, licensing and experience.
