Anxiety Therapists in Liberty Township, OH

Life presents challenges, and one can get stuck, but growth is in sight. While understanding can lead to change and peace of mind, there are times when you could use a little help gaining a clear perspective. That's where therapy comes in. It's a powerful tool that can provide the direction and support you need to manage stress, loneliness, anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms or just to adjust to life's changes.

Life transitions have you feeling "stuck"? Do you feel like you do not see the bigger picture? Let us at Confidential Confessions Counseling assist you in stepping into the frame. At Confidential Confessions Counseling, we have a desire to provide high-quality care, skilled and compassionate services to those individuals who trust us with their concerns, conflicts, and life transitions. Within an inviting and supportive atmosphere, we offer a person-centered approach tailored to the client's unique situation and needs.

My approach to therapy is as unique as you. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship by getting to know you, your story, what you value, and what you find meaningful. We work together to get to the core of the issue you’d like to address and listen for the deepest voice within you. I partner with you in helping you to navigate the realities and limitations of being human while also embracing the freedom to choose how to live your life, align with your values, live in the present, and find meaning.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with almost 25 years of experience in working with adolescents, adults and families. I have worked in a variety of settings, including a locked facility for juveniles, doctor offices within a hospital setting, a charter school which specialized in individualized and flexible strategies to teach the children, an adoption agency performing assessments and conducting birth parent counseling, and a community mental health center. I have been in private practice for the last 8 years.

The world is not built for kind, empathic people. It can wear you down fast and even faster without the right skills. Stress builds up and becomes anxiety: your mind runs amok with worry and doubt. You question your worth. You relive trauma- did you deserve it? Were they right about you? Why did it happen? Relationships are difficult because they require trust and vulnerability. How could a partner understand you when you can't? You're told finding purpose helps, but you don't know yours. Right now, there isn't even room to think about it. It's all too much. It may be too much on your own,but with guidance this can be healed

We are a faith-based counseling center. We believe that healing begins with God. Our clients have the option to choose prayer during their sessions. This is not mandatory but if they are in need we will pray with them. We are providers that offer hope and encouragement. We will help you to meet your goals and will help you through your struggles. As your Therapist, Counselor, and Psychologist I will ensure that you have a safe, supportive, and encouraging place to make the desired changes you are seeking. I work with people across the Cincinnati, Ohio area.

My name is Miriam Cardona and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) providing services in both English and Spanish. I earned my Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling from the Athenaeum of Ohio Seminary.

Do you ruminate and often worry? Are you suffering from past or current hurts? Is your relationship filled with criticism, defensiveness, contempt or stonewalling? How aware are you of your strengths and other qualities that make you unique? Are you the author of your own life story or of someone else's? Do you want to learn how to bring the smiles and the butterflies back into your meaningful relationships? Are you ready to be a partner in a growth-centered relationship?

I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to process through the difficulties you are going through in life, whether it be mental health (ADHD, Bipolar, Depression, Anxiety), relationship struggles, cultural issues, attachment difficulties, past trauma and/or divorce. I use reflective listening and empathy, and can aid you in working through your thought and emotion patterns (using both CBT (cognitive-behavior therapy) and EFT (emotionally-focused therapy). A passion of mine is to help empower people to be the best version of themselves to have a voice, learn how to be their authentic self and navigate culture.

My passion lies in working with children and teenagers to overcome anxiety, build self-confidence, foster stronger family relationships, and navigate challenging social environments. I specialize in treating young children through the use of play therapies and addressing women's issues such as perinatal and postpartum depression and anxiety. I also work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, loss, and offer support for couples and families in distress.

Life is a journey. Your journey and personal life experiences mean everything- the blessings as well as the traumas. When there are unhealed wounds of the past, it is hard to feel safe in the world, secure with ourselves or in relationships with others. As a result, we often experience anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I offer a gentle, non-intrusive, compassionate and safe space for you to begin the healing process to live your most meaningful life. “What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.”

I am dedicated to working with clients grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues and LGBTQIA concerns. My shared vocations of psychotherapist and yoga therapist/teacher enable me to take a broad view of healing. As such, I am dedicated to fostering opportunities of holistic wellness by offering evidence-based psychotherapy; and when traditional psychotherapeutic treatment is not sufficient, the embodiment of yoga may be an attractive adjunctive strategy.

The hardest part of life is living a full and enjoyable life, especially when there is heartache, emotional or physical pain, anxiety and fears, and losses that were unexpected. I can help you make sense out of this life and find the strength and hope to manage changes to improve how you live, how you feel, and how you feel about how you are living when you can't change your life or your circumstances. I can help you reduce the panic of anxiety, the intensity of traumatic fears, the reactivity to emotional circumstances, and reduce the grief of all sorts of losses experienced or anticipated.

Some of the main issues for which individuals typically seek psychotherapy include, 1) Why are my relationships so troubled?, 2) Why have I been unhappy for so long?, 3) Why do I repeat the same problems over and over again?, 4) Is my past haunting me?, 5) How can I regain my self-respect and dignity?, 6) What is causing my symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or insomnia?, and 7) Do I need medication? In addition to these important issues, I would also ask, "Is there anything more important in your life than your psychological well-being?"

Life is a journey. Where are you in your journey? Are wounds from the past holding you back? Are you in a stage of growth or transitions, or struggling to manage and cope with today’s stresses? Maybe you are looking ahead in your journey and facing life choices, looking for directions, or just want to move forward in a healthier way. Counseling can help empower you to navigate your journey.

From painful traumas, grief and loss, relationships issues, parenting challenges, marriage disconnection, to anxiety and depression, we all experience challenges at some point in life. However, growing and becoming the best version of ourselves requires work and attention as it may not come naturally. Every person is different. Placing judgment aside and holistically seeing everyone for who they are allows me to create a safe space for growth, where clients feel supported while developing their own unique self and a stronger sense of belonging within themselves and among others.

As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I am committed to helping individuals understand and overcome the thought patterns and behaviors that are causing them distress. With a focus on the present and practical solutions, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment in which clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, and work towards making positive changes in their lives. I have been trained in a variety of techniques and strategies that are effective at helping individuals overcome a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and addiction.

I offer expertise in school-related issues that may adversely impact a child's educational functioning and success. I conduct psychoeducational assessments to diagnose various learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, ADHD, or anxiety disorders. I also offer gifted assessments. I provide therapeutic intervention to develop coping skills, social skills, or executive functioning skills that are critical for student learning in the educational setting.
