My goal as a counselor is to guide both individuals and couples as they navigate any personal, relationship, gender, or sexuality-related concerns. Life is an ongoing process with challenges. This offers an opportunity for personal growth through our relationships with others and within ourselves. I employ a holistic approach to my practice, fostering an empathetic and down-to-earth atmosphere. I am privileged to work with and fully understand and accept my clients by providing a comfortable, safe, and judgment-free environment. Together we can embrace and nurture what makes you uniquely and authentically you.

The struggles we face as we travel through life may leave us feeling like a piece of the self has been cracked, chipped away, covered up, or like shadows have formed within one’s self. In relationships it may feel like there is something wrong, but difficult to pinpoint what. Whatever brought you here, you have taken the first step, moving towards becoming more whole and changing your life for the better. Through a collaborative approach, my goal is to help you put the pieces together in a way that feels best to you, so that you may move forward in your life towards a happier and more fulfilling future.

I enjoy helping my clients on their journey to better themselves and those around them. I believe that all of us get stuck at times throughout our lives, and can use some guidance and someone to talk to. I have experience working with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. I believe that God has a plan for us all and wants us to be happy and fulfilled in life. Currently, I am offering Telehealth in addition to in-person visits.

You may struggle to be present - instead ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. Perhaps you tend to be a people pleaser who prioritizes the needs of others but not your own well-being. Maybe you get caught up in the "not good enough" story that prevents you from reaching your potential. Or you're a perfectionist who struggles when life circumstances fall out of your control. You wish life was easier, more peaceful, more full of joy. You deserve that life and, together, we will uncover and overcome the roadblocks that are standing in your way, while developing new skills to cope with life's stressors.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, restless and not sure how to get back in sync with life? Have you experienced considerable loss? What about your important relationships, are they strained or in conflict? These struggles may indicate that it’s time to seek professional help with someone who can journey with you and provide experienced guidance and support. Someone that can provide a safe space to explore the unhealthy patterns and dynamics impacting your life, preventing you from moving forward and being a more joy-filled person.

My specialty is trauma. I love to journey with people to help them learn how to live free and full lives. Life is filled with many anxieties, trials, traumas and obstacles which can create patterns that hinder us from thriving. When we experience trauma, our brain and body create adaptive or maladaptive patterns to cope with trauma. My goal is to partner with my clients to identify the problems, create effective goals and increase healthy cognitive, emotional and behavioral skills in order to decrease symptoms and develop healthy coping tools. I provide Christian counseling to those seeking support from a faith based perspective.

Are you nervous about starting treatment? Are you unsure about opening up to a stranger? At TheraVault, our clinicians are warm, inviting, supportive, and hear to listen and help you through your challenges in life, big or small. We have a variety of clinicians with different skill set sets and training to meet client needs. We approach care as well rounded and holistic as possible. As individuals we are not 2 dimensional and neither should our healing journey. If you are new to therapy and unsure of what to expect, we can make the first step easy for you, if you have been to therapy before we can pick up where you left off or restart if needed. Our goal is to help you with your goals, if you aren't sure what those are we can help you explore what you might not be able to put into words. Being vulnerable is scary, overwhelming, and difficult. You don't have to have all the answers, show up and allow us to walk with your through this difficult time.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (C.2204267) in the State of Ohio. I work primarily with adolescents and adults, and focus on helping clients cope, learn new skills, and experience positive life changes.

When I entered the counseling profession over twenty-five years ago, my desire was to help people adjust to some of life's challenges and setbacks, while finding meaning and purpose. The therapeutic relationship is a safe venue in which one’s goals, whether life coaching, healing and recovery, improving relationships, or enhancing life satisfaction can be realized. My excitement for assisting people to develop meaningful goals for fulfillment in their life situation remains a passion. I work with children, adolescents, adults of all ages, and families to improve the quality of their lives.

It goes without saying that relationships are tough. You just didn't think it would get this tough. Things have changed since the kids came along. You thought once they got older and things would settled down, you'd get back to the two of you but that hasn't happened. And the conflict has gotten worse. You can't even remember what the conflict was about to begin with but it's never, ever resolved. And the disconnection you feel as a result of the conflict is increasingly painful. Or you are so tired of the same conflict pattern again and again, you've stopped caring all together.
