I am a licensed psychologist in Ohio with over 15 years experience. I have expertise in treating a variety of concerns and conditions, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety (including panic attacks and OCD), and prolonged grief. I have extensive training, and clinical and research experience in treating individuals who have survived traumatic events, including but not limited to first responders, combat, accidents, and sexual traumas (childhood and adult). I utilize time-limited approaches that are strongly backed by clinical research to address presenting concerns, including cognitive behavioral techniques (including specific protocols such as Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, Prolonged Exposure Therapy for PTSD, Exposure and Relapse Prevention for OCD, CBT for depression). Prior to starting these time-limited treatments, I first assure that clients are informed about treatment options and engage in a process of shared decision-making. Through my clinical work, I have been honored to witness and walk along side countless strong and brave clients who have succeeded in moving forward and finding renewed purpose and meaning. I would be honored to join you in this journey.
