Therapists in Centerville, OH

Thinking and feeling in ways that allow you to engage your daily life, others, and your personal goals with energy, creativity, and effectiveness is the thrust of my approach and practice. Identifying patterns that restrict cognitive and behavioral functioning, preventing understanding and integration of personal and interpersonal dynamics is a key focus. Increasing self awareness and understanding through enhancing mindfulness, expanding thinking about self and others, and developing behavior patterns that mobilize personal strengths, assets, and motivation is the goal of the work.

My areas of expertise are health and wellness. I treat people and families, not illness or disorders. I utilize a convergent multidisciplinary approach to assessment and treatment that focuses on people's inherent strengths to help them achieve their goals. My approach is a prevention-based model driven by the needs of the people for whom we work. I incorporate a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional approaches to health and wellness, striving to make each person's experience with us unique, functional, and meaningful.

Greetings. I am a general practitioner with 20 years of experience providing psychological services. My training and practice covers the human life span. Individuals, couples, and Families are welcome. I use a unique, innovative, culturally appropriate approach that is based on best practices derived from empirical and qualitative research. With all my clients, I seek to help them pursue the full unfolding of their true self, and close the gap between their present reality and their ideal. Making changes can be difficult, but I want to congratulate you on taking the first step.

My focus in practice is working with individuals and families who are facing grief, loss, chronic illness, depression, anxiety, PTSD, or have no idea what is going on but they just don't feel okay anymore. Being overwhelmed and burdened by life, amid a pandemic, and other past traumatic events can lead many to a state of confusion, denial, and self destructive behaviors. Relationships suffer or are torn away without any control or warning. If your goal is to regain balance, take back control of your life, or to just figure out what is going on in your mind and heart, I can help. I see you. I hear you. You matter.

Are you exhausted from wrestling your inner demons or existing in the past? Does it feel like you have been living life on autopilot or as an outside observer? We can only carry the weight of our inner world for so long until inevitably something has to give. It's at this breaking point that we seek outside help and if you have reached this point it would be my privilege to walk with you. I am committed to coming alongside you in finding healing, meaning, and a sense of being alive. It is my goal to nourish space where you are seen and safe to develop and empower your authentic self.

Life can present us with difficulties and events that challenge our well-being and impact our ability to manage our life circumstances. There are times when we need guidance, support or assistance with processing these events, our thoughts and feelings, or help with making difficult life decisions. I provide counseling and therapy with a warm, caring and empathic approach. I highly value patient confidentiality, trust, understanding, and recovery. I believe that it is -in -and through the strong working relationship that develops between the client and the counselor that the healing of issues is achieved and the clients' goals are mastered.

The easiest way to schedule is through my website and the best contact is email. Change, although inevitable, can be difficult and feel ruthless especially when life takes a turn you don't expect. We can start feeling lost, alone and out of touch with ourselves and those around us. Each of us are vulnerable to the pain, grief and the uncertainty of the human condition. In this way, I believe we can each benefit from a safe and non-judgmental space that allows us to put our guard down and encourages us to learn, be flexible and rest more fully into the natural process of simply being ourselves and listening to our own wounds.

Anxiety and depression are often messengers that tell us where we might need to look at our current direction, relationships, make tweeks on how we treat ourselves.

I will support you in attracting and creating the life you want. I offer approaches that guide you from trying to figure out life to learning to live intentionally and passionately in the moment.

Times of chaos, confusion, and challenge are opportunities for a shift in perspective and meaningful, long-lasting change.

I can help you become your best self!

When you're with me, trust that it will be a HIPAA compliant, safe and secure experience, with optional, scheduled office appointments upon request. Who is a typical client and what brings him or her to seek help? You are an individual who may have a busy schedule, a family, or perhaps a physical or psychological mobility issue. You are someone who may have no previous exposure to therapy, counseling or consultation services, or someone who is a seasoned traveler. Whatever the reason, your comprehensive needs are my professional priority.

Grand Being! It is my hope to help you discover your pathway to success...however, you choose to define success. I am a staunch believer that, with the proper assistance, there is nothing that can not be overcome and conquered. I have proven this to myself and my clients time and time again through my work with incarcerates, SPMI, and children/adolescents. If you are seeking to become the best version of yourself and need someone who will help you to discover those elements, please contact me.
