Benjamin (Ben) Keplar, LCSW

Benjamin (Ben) Keplar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Indiana who has built deep experience working with Veterans and military personnel. Over more than 15 years of service in those settings, he has spent the most recent eight years focused on social work in mental health and addictions, developing skills across inpatient addiction treatment, caregiver support, and medical social work needs.

He has worked with people facing homelessness as well as those navigating aging, cognition and memory concerns, and the complex needs that accompany chronic conditions. His background includes supporting families and caregivers and helping clients address substance use and the challenges that often surround recovery.

Ben centers his work on the individual he is supporting. His practice begins with listening and treating each person with respect and compassion. He works collaboratively, allowing clients to set the pace while offering tailored tools and therapeutic approaches to meet them where they are and help them move toward their goals. He does not use shaming, negative labels, or stigmatizing language about past choices or circumstances.

Recognizing the courage it takes to seek help, Ben approaches therapy as a partnership. He is committed to supporting clients toward a more fulfilling and satisfying life and welcomes the opportunity to work together toward practical, meaningful change.
