Welcome to my profile! I have a Master's Degree in Community Counseling from Kent State University and I am a licensed Professional Clinical Counselor for the State of Ohio. I have been licensed since 2002 and am actively practicing the profession of clinical counseling. I have specialized experience in treating children, adolescents, and adults with the following emotional health concerns: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Anxiety Disorders, and Depressive Disorders. I assist clients with managing the stress that results from a history of abuse, exposure to violence, accidents (i.e. motor vehicle), and the stress involved in managing chronic illnesses.

I am here to guide you on the path of Self-Healing and mental wellness. Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new behavior, attitudes and reactions.

Fairhaven is a safe place where Hope & Healing begin. We even have a therapy dog in the office who loves to accompany adults & children into session. I love to work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, & families. I work with ADHD, Asperger's, depression, abuse recovery, anxiety, grieving, career planning & development with teens & adults. Many of my clients want spiritual direction. I have worked extensively with Christians of all walks and provide gentle Christian direction, if desired. I have also worked with people of the Jewish and Muslim faiths. I see athiests as well, but never try to push faith upon them.

We all experience difficult challenges and transitions which can cause painful feelings and disrupt our lives. My goal is provide a safe, supportive, collaborative, and professional relationship to help you navigate these challenges. My focus is on helping client’s explore themselves, gain insight, and ultimately make changes that align with their unique goals. Whether you are looking to improve your relationships, manage anxiety/depression, increase academic or career path satisfaction, work on longstanding difficulties or just to understand yourself more fully, I aim to offer a space that promotes growth and positive outcomes.

Do you find the majority of your interactions with your spouse ending in arguments? Have you lost the passion and intimacy that once defined your relationship? Has either one of you become emotionally distant or unfaithful to the other? These are signs that your marriage is in trouble and possibly on the brink of failing. I specialize in helping couples identify destructive thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that undermine their relationship. I also guide couples through the process of learning new ways to interact so they can modify unhealthy relational patterns and reconnect as a couple.

As we navigate unpredictable futures, anxieties and coping with daily life and our jobs becomes more and more overwhelming. If you're a parent, changes in school and daily schedules can frustrate and increase challenging behaviors. If you or a loved one identify as LGBT+, life can sometimes just be overwhelming. If you're a helper, caregiver, teacher, faith leader, or a medical/mental health provider, providing help for others is your passion, and self-care can become secondary. Finding a place to safely process life is important and available to you. If you are in crisis, please use your local ER or crisis hotline.

Feeling anxious, stressed or unhappy with your life? If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction, I am here to help you overcome the barriers that hold you back from having the kind of life that you've always wanted. As an educated, skilled and compassionate therapist I can help you turn your emotional pain into emotional well-being by employing the strengths and resources you already have to develop and utilize new strategies to deal with life's challenges.

Are you tired of taking care of everyone but yourself? Is your sadness and fear getting so large that you just can't ignore it anymore? You know you need a change, but you don't know yourself well enough anymore to figure out what that change is. You're at a crossroads and there's a decision to made; divorce, relationships, career change, or kids getting older and moving out. Your indecision and conflicting advice from others is making you anxious and standing still is starting to get you frustrated and depressed. You need an unbiased person to listen to what you want and help you to figure out what you need.

I thoroughly enjoy working with a wide range of clients and client's presenting problems. I find the counseling journey to be the most sacred experience. I cherish it very deeply and often find that what may draw someone into the experience may just be the beginning of what we delve into to improve functioning and living a fulfilling life.

I have a special interest in working with clients going through life transitions such as a significant loss, relationship distress, work stress/retirement, or unexpected changes that causes you to experience stress, anxiety or depression. Life transitions are challenging because they force you to let go of the familiar. Life transitions can be both negative and positive. You can learn to navigate change in a healthy way, allowing you to not only survive difficult situations, but to eventually thrive. I also enjoy working with clients exploring personal growth and the desire to live a life of purpose, happiness and connection.

My passion is working with adults with trauma-related disorders, depression, and anxiety. While creating a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, I strive to work with individuals to relieve stress from the symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I enjoy assisting people in learning new and positive coping skills to integrate into their everyday lives. My goal while facilitating treatment is to provide the support, resources, and techniques you need to accomplish your personal goals.

I help people recovering from traumatic experiences in relationships and I offer guidance and practical skills to take home. People come because they had a difficult childhood and were hurt by people they were supposed to trust. People who have felt anxious most of their lives and don't know how to stop repeating mistakes. Sometimes clients come as a couple trying to heal from infidelity, built up walls, and pain. These couples are tired of feeling lonely inside a relationship. Couples who want useful communication skills to start healing and feeling connected again, to move forward. Look at my website to find out more.
