I am licensed in the state of Ohio to independently practice counseling, and I have training in three different evidence based therapies; EMDR, CBT, and DBT. I have a lengthy history of working with survivors of trauma, and I am able to help clients manage symptoms of anxiety, challenge and test the accuracy of thoughts that maybe causing problems; and help with managing emotions and improving communication. Throughout the course of my counseling sessions, I challenge clients to identify their professional and personal supporters and to not engage in unsafe behaviors. I encourage the clients I work with to learn skills to “fill their toolboxes” with skills so that they can improve their ability to independently manage symptoms and the overcome obstacles they face in life. It is hard work to make changes in your life through counseling and I will challenge you to reach your potential. I will also help you to celebrate your successes when they occur. And they will occur. I look forward to working with you.

Do emotions feel foreign to you? Overwhelming? Were you taught to just ignore what you are feeling and power through to the next thing on your to-do list? I work with clients to embrace and understand all these things that they feel from day to day which then allows them to function at their full potential. Emotions don’t have to be intimidating or overwhelming, I would love to show you how they can become a source of strength. Hello I’m Amy, owner and therapist at Reliant Counseling, my own tele-health based counseling company. I work to empower others to unlock their full potential and embrace emotions. With my clients I focus primarily on emotional acceptance and executive counseling often with people who are at the point of burnout in their careers which bleeds into all areas of their lives. We will work to find healthy outlets and other solutions that will allow you to focus your energy in a more efficient way and set you up for satisfaction in all areas. My counseling style is more laid back, I want us to feel like we are just having a conversation while also developing new skills or processing through stress. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines many different modalities to assist you in achieving your goals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, substance use addictions, and children's services/foster care involvement. I applaud you for taking the steps to grow and work through whatever struggles you may be facing and I hope we can go on that journey together. I look forward to working with you!

Hello. Congratulations on taking a courageous step toward self-care, personal development and healing. The decision to reach out for counseling can be daunting. Especially when you just want to find a good match - a therapist who really understands you and has an approach that meets your needs. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio. I work specifically with people who find themselves repeatedly engaged in unfulfilling and even toxic relational patterns. They desire healthier and more deeply connected relationships with others but find themselves consistently struggling with difficult and sometimes overwhelming feelings and negative interactions with partners, family members, friends and/or colleagues. They long to create, restore and strengthen the bonds of healthy relationships in their life. Painful relationship experiences in their past have given rise to distressing issues in present relationships. If this sounds like you, I want you to know that thriving connections that last over time are possible. I'm here to help. With over 20 years as a master level counselor, I have provided counseling services for clients who have been impacted by a variety of issues such as couple and family discord, depression, self-esteem, and trauma-related concerns. I offer an authentic, empathetic, and collaborative way of working with clients. Utilizing an integrative approach, my therapeutic style draws from attachment, family systems and cognitive behavioral perspectives. If what I've shared here sounds like a good match, let's work together. I'm here to help.

Life is hard. Full stop. Sometimes we need help - an extended ear or friendly face to continue to deal with our daily stressors or big life changes. Taking the first step to seeking help takes courage. Let’s take a moment to celebrate this first achievement toward a happier, healthier you! We are often hardest on ourselves, and I believe that focusing inward and allowing ourselves grace and kindness can go a long way. I also believe we all need space to process what we are thinking and feeling, though we often find reasons to neglect this need. We are too busy, other things become a priority, or perhaps we believe we don’t deserve the time and energy for ourselves. My toolbox is equipped with a range of therapeutic approaches, depending on each person’s needs and interests. I primarily utilize techniques that help develop skills to cope with life’s challenges. However, in working together I hope to help you with setting goals, finding and maintaining motivation, setting healthy boundaries, and finding sustainable balance. I specialize in expressive arts therapy (visual art, music, drama, movement, writing), though participating in expressive arts is not required and will not be pushed. Most of my experience is in crisis response and providing care to individuals needing intense levels of care in full-day programs. I believe that therapy goes beyond theory and textbooks. I have found that my influences have come from both inside and outside of the field of mental health. As a registered expressive arts therapist (REAT) and board certified registered art therapist (ATR-BC), I am inspired by Natalie Rogers, Shaun McNiff, and Cathy Malchiodi. As a mental health practitioner, I am heavily influenced by Carl Rogers, Irvin Yalom, and Jean Piaget. As a human being, I look to Fred Rogers, Tim Gunn, and Bob Ross for modeling of being kind to others, being kind to ourselves, and finding ways to reframe situations and overcome challenges. I will work with you to meet your needs and help you reach your goals, however, if at anytime you or I feel that it’s not a good fit, I am happy to help you connect with someone else. I am available for 30-45 minute live sessions Monday through Saturday. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Whatever you are going through, you are not alone. Whether you are looking for strategies to cope, support in making a big decision, help with a difficult relationship, insight into mental health symptoms, a listening ear, cultivating a deeper level of acceptance, strength, hope, or exploring personal meaning and purpose, I count it an honor to work with you. I have been in practice for 14 years in the mental health field, since earning my Master's degree in Counseling and Art Therapy from Ursuline College in 2009. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Registered Art Therapist, I work with clients in both private practice and within the outpatient hospital setting. Drawing upon the bountiful resources of Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic Approach, and Art Therapy (if requested), I seek to balance our sessions with compassion, clinical skill, and creativity, incorporating personalized coping tools to address your goals and build upon your natural strength and innate resilience. Therapy is a gift that you give to yourself; the benefits of therapy are well worth the work!
