I am a licensed professional clinical counselor supervisor in the state of Ohio. My specialties include the treatment of anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, personality disorders, and trauma-related disorders. I offer diagnostic assessment and empirically based treatment for children, adolescents, and adults. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), but use a combination of therapy techniques based on patients’ needs including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness techniques with an emphasis on social skills training. We also offer therapeutic/relaxation massage, Reiki therapy, and guided meditation.
As a compassionate, empathetic and solution-focused licensed professional counselor, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care to adolescents and adults experiencing emotional distress and mental health issues.
I know it can be hard to reach out. This is the first step to improving your mental health and to making the positive changes that will allow you to reach your fullest potential! I appreciate you contacting me and for allowing me be a part of your journey to achieving optimal over-all health and wellness.

I often use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). DBT is based on CBT & adapted for people who experience emotions very intensely. DBT focuses on helping people accept the reality of their lives and their behaviors, as well as helping them learn to change their lives, including unhelpful behaviors through skills training.
