Therapists in Berea, OH

I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, various forms of addiction, autism, & more. Are your goals oriented towards reducing maladaptive symptoms, identifying the behaviors you wish to engage in, being the person you want to be, and, ultimately, the life you aspire to live? Do you desire change and growth & are willing to put the necessary effort in? As your counselor, I do not effect change; that responsibility belongs to you. I aim to empower you to recognize your innate strengths, develop them further, and effectively use them towards your goals in life.

I've had the sincere pleasure of being a therapist for 35 years.

For the past ten years in private practice, I have continued to assist others using a variety of therapeutic approaches: psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, relaxation and coping skills, grief therapy and assertiveness training.

Are you an athlete who is struggling with confidence, trusting your skills, perfectionism, coping with mistakes, fear of failure, etc? As a former volleyball high school state champion and Division I collegiate athlete, being able to manage your expectations and continue to push yourself despite internal and external pressures can be overwhelming. As athletes, we find it natural to work on the physical side but do not always prioritize the mental side. Taking time to process your struggles is beneficial and I want to create a comfortable space to do so.
