If you have recently had a baby and are feeling like you are overwhelmed or that you just cannot bond with your baby, you may be suffering from postpartum depression (PPD). This can be a dangerous condition if you do not get treatment and Xenia has many counselors who are experts in treating PPD.
The City of Xenia has turned all of their old train tracks into hiking and biking trails for the citizens to use for recreation and exercise. One of them, named the Little Miami Scenic Trail, is the third longest paved trail in the United States at 78.1 miles long. Exercise is one good way to combat PPD. Talk to a Xenia counselor about some other good ways to fight this debilitating disorder.

I have always been fascinated by how people work. As a child I loved learning about how the body works. As I got older my focus shifted to how minds work and how people function in this world. My education centered around mental health how to help people with their problems. I have an MS in Life Span Development and an Med in Counselor Education, both from Purdue University and am now a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio. My 30+ year career has found me working with people with anxiety and depression issues, as well as the incredible stresses due to life circumstances. I have been able to help clients who have found themselves with personality or impulse control issues. I enjoy gardening, traveling and learning new things. I am an optimist. My general way of relating to people is one of listing intently enough to be able to see things from their point of view, and to show respect, warmth, and humor. I believe that establishing a strong, supportive relationship is of utmost importance in therapy. Respect and honesty are essential for effective therapy. Together we can solve problems and improve bad situations. I tend to favor Cognitive Behavioral approaches in therapy, but am quite capable of adjusting my therapeutic process to the method best suited for the problems at hand.
