I have experience with a variety of issues that impact clients including, relationship issues, family issues, self esteem, mood disorders, suicidal ideations, anxiety, depression, etc. My approach is eclectic and I try to tailor my approach to what would be most beneficial to the individual client (including various theories and techniques), I feel it is important to be collaborative through this process and welcome any questions and feedback throughout the therapeutic experience.

HI! I am glad you are here and hope that you find what you are looking for. I specialize in helping people like yourself get unstuck. Whether it's in your relationship, issues within your family or with your children, stress, anxiety, or unresolved trauma, I can help you find practical solutions to relieve your symptoms. I operate from a strength-based, trauma sensitive, solution focused perspective and will help you find individualized, specific strategies to address your immediate concerns. I am an licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio with over 10 years experience providing individual counseling to children and adults. When I am not directly helping others, you will find me teaching at a University or supervising students clinical hours in their Masters in Counseling program. I am the mother of two very active teenage daughters, so I understand the demands of balancing work and life. It is not always easy to seek help and make changes in your life, however, deciding that now is the time to make these changes is always the hardest part and you are now past that. Let's get started so that you can start leading a more enjoyable, less stressful life. I am committed to your success! I look forward to working with you!

25 years offering treatment
Welcome! I have been a licensed clinician for over 25 years. Throughout the years, I have worked with clients of varying ages across an array of service areas. For example, I have worked with clients to discuss topics such as mental health, coping strategies, anxiety, decision making/problem solving, grief and loss, family changes/conflicts, stress, and coping with long-term or new medical conditions. I also have extensive experience working with individuals with previous involvement in the criminal justice system. This work has provided me with the opportunity to also work with the family members, loved ones, and others connected to the person who may have served time. I am comfortable working with individuals seeking to enter the workforce for the first time, re-entering the workforce or interested in changing career paths. I would work with you to identify the talents you are interested in highlighting in an upcoming job search as well as addressing barriers that may have impacted employment situations in the past. When working with clients, I strive to provide a supportive and safe space to communicate. We can work together to identify realistic strategies for your progress and long-term success. My number one priority is to be a great listener and provide support along the way. It is important to me that you walk away from our time together, feeling heard and respected. I promote a therapeutic environment that stands on the value that “all are welcomed here”. Our differences should be treated with compassion and dignity. I look forward to working with you!

I am a licensed independent social worker (LISW-S) in the state of Ohio with over 20 years of experience. My pronouns are she/her/hers. I have worked with teenage, young adult and older adult clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, toxic stress, self-esteem, relationship issues, life adjustments, grief issues, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced domestic violence and emotional abuse. When working with BIPOC clients and those in the LGBTQ+ community, it is important to remember how historical trauma and current social justice issues can impact mental health. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I see my role is to help you to determine what is best for you and not to tell you what you should be doing. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, short-term solution focused, client centered and motivational interviewing. We will create a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek for a happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
