Therapists in Monclova, OH

We all want to be our best selves, but there are times in life when we get stuck and need insight to stop those "never ending thoughts." We may feel anxious and depressed or don’t quite know what is bothering us. Trauma induced anxiety can overwhelm and debilitate. We need a little extra help to deal with these issues in an atmosphere of safety, warmth, humor and nonjudgmental support. I am here to help. I believe no one is on an island and finding someone to help create a safe and comforting space to heal, is just the beginning of the therapeutic journey. In this space, you can feel guided through regaining your peace.

Born and raised in the beautiful Mojave Desert of Southern California, I am a Small Town Girl with a Big Passionate Heart! I am the proud wife of a Disabled Marine Corps Veteran who is also an Ordained Minister. I am a mom, a daughter, an aunt, a sister, a friend, and a grandma (or 'Mimi' as I prefer). I am an Ordained Minister with The International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, and I have an identical twin sister!

As a drug and alcohol counselor, I have learned that individuals want to be heard and seen. That's difficult when you have an addiction. Whether it's to substances or addictions to other things such as pornography, gambling, gaming, eating, etc., I am here to help you find your way out of the repeated cycles. These cycles affect your daily functioning, relationships, and physical well-being. Addiction leads you down roads you never thought you would find yourself on. It can be isolating and bring up many emotions. I can provide a safe space to explore why the patterns continue to be repeated and help you find a different way.
