I am a clinical social worker licensed in Ohio with over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns not limited to depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I have a strong background in family preservation and educational advocacy. If you are a parent or individual looking for help, I am the therapist for you. My counseling style is open and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and rational-emotive counseling. I believe in working with my clients to identify small life 'tweaks' that result in big outcomes. I will tailor our conversation and treatment to meet your unique and specific needs. Some people believe that a person who seeks treatment is weak. I believe that a person who looks for help is strong because it means that they have already made a decision to improve their life! It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and 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!

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker clinically trained in mental health. I obtained my Masters in Social Work at the University of Cincinnati. I have worked with adults and children in multiple settings such as inpatient, outpatient, in groups and individually. I have worked over the past 10 years with a variety of diagnoses and life circumstances. I have found it important to ensure a positive and productive treatment environment. I have assisted people healing from trauma to overcoming fear and obstacles in life. I find it very important to build on trust and the therapeutic relationship when working with clients. I want people to feel safe enough to open up and comfortable enough to want to work through the therapeutic process to healing and problem solving. Techniques from Cognitive Behavioral, EMDR, Strength Based, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Therapies and so on are used to assist clients over a period of consistent sessions. I believe having a "no judgment zone" approach is key to building the relationship to get the work done.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with 20 years experience. My focus is always to work in collaboration with each client to develop a treatment plan that best addresses the areas they would like to work on.

I prefer to use techniques from several modalities including solution focused and cognitive behavioral therapy as well as motivational interviewing. I received my Master’s Degree of Science in Social Administration after receiving my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work. I obtained an independent license to practice and have also received a supervisory designation. My career has included working with everyone from teens to senior citizens, individuals, and groups but the majority of my experience is in grief and loss and bereavement. I love working with people, but also enjoy spending time with my husband and our two dogs, playing pickleball, attending major league baseball games, and traveling. Reaching out for support can be a difficult step, but I know one thing to be true, it does get better. The importance of feeling heard, being reflective, and taking time to work on you can not be underestimated. Take the first step!

Jeffrey’s focus is on a variety of life issues that impede the unique potential of the individual. These include substance abuse and dependency, Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, depression, and trauma as well as major life events that happen to us all. Jeffrey works with people from all walks of life including children, couples, and adults. His approach to counseling is person centered / existential and is concerned primarily with a person’s goals, aspirations, and realization of meaning. Jeffrey views life “problems” not as impediments to attaining goals but as opportunities. Person centered counseling is not a platform on which one seeks advice or fears being judged, as if “under the microscope”. Rather it is a collaborative conversation based on unconditional positive regard, in which counselor and client journey together towards the client’s realization of meaning and goals. Jeffrey has recently began using a tele-health platform to do video counseling online with clients. If you are interested in online counseling please request at Email: smartja23@gmail.com
