I believe therapy can be a beneficial tool to assist those who are hurting, dissatisfied, or filled with uncertainty. Sometimes we find ourselves struggling in our relationships. We may have persistent sadness or worries that get in the way of life. We may have losses that are too difficult to process on our own. Or we may feel our life has just gotten off track. There are many reasons to seek therapy. Do you want to learn and try new coping skills? Do you want to improve a relationship? Do you want help working through a problem in your life? I can help. I offer therapy in-person or online and have evening availability.

I strongly believe in fostering a collaborative relationship with clients and always approach my work from a strengths-based perspective.
Navigating the journey of life can be challenging. Often the path is fraught with twists and turns as we encounter obstacles we did not anticipate and struggle to overcome. As a therapist, I see my role as someone who will walk beside you as you seek to overcome difficulties and discover the right direction for your life. I am an independently licensed Social Worker who received my MSW from The Ohio State University. I have experience working with diverse late adolescent and adult populations, providing outpatient counseling to individuals and couples, as well as facilitation of a wide range of therapeutic group work.

We are all on our own healing journey and I want to congratulate you for taking this step toward peace and wellness! This is hard and we all need a support system to help us along the way. I want to be there for you to assist you when the feelings get too much, when that sneaky trauma response appears just when you thought you met the person of your dreams, but you are now sabotaging the heck out of this new relationship and have no idea why or when life just seems to keep serving you that left hook you were not anticipating at all.

Note: I am only doing couples/marriage/premarital counseling at this time. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, my perspective of the human condition and experience is derived from thinking about the context of relationships. Very few, if any, "problems" are a solitary experience; it is often experienced with others in our lives. We are relational beings, and who we are has been influenced by the relationships we have with others. Relationships can hurt, but relationships can also heal. Begin the process of healing and restoring you (and your relationships) today.

My professional history consists of 14 years in addiction counseling and an additional 3 years of mental health/relationship counseling. I believe the individual is comprised of four domains: Biological, Psychological, Social and Spiritual. In our search for purpose and meaning all of these domains must be addressed. I embrace a holistic approach to counseling which views the counselor as a trained professional- but not all knowing expert. While the client has problems; the client also has solutions. Through a therapeutic alliance, together we can develop a plan that will lead to a more fulfilling life.

By providing a safe environment, and a therapeutic relationship, you will achieve your goal.
You are the expert on your life; you are the one who knows what goal you want to set up for your happiness. Do not let your stress, anxiety, depression, and self-defeating thoughts hold you back from your goal. People are often diagnosed with mental health conditions and substance use disorders. Risk factors for SUD usually include trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression. Acknowledging the symptoms are often difficult, with the therapy you will find your strength, triggers, and patterns and will be able to perceive a positive world to have a successful happy life.

I have provided individual and group counseling to children, youth, and adults with severe mental illness, behavioral and relationship issues, loss and grief, substance use disorders and court ordered services, among others.
Life is beautiful and messy. Recovery is not linear. And healing takes more than just time. It is our experiences from birth to the present that have shaped us to be who we are. Therapy can help peel back those layers of experiences and allow us to better understand how our experiences affected us and learn how to move beyond the past and reshape our future. Perhaps past trauma prevents you from feeling safe and happy or relationship issues are crushing your spirit. Maybe recent loss has triggered pain that seems unbearable or life transitions are very overwhelming.

Specific areas of specialization include trauma, intimate partner violence, self-esteem, relationships, identity, and personal growth.
Women often come to my office with a feeling that their cups are “running over.” As a woman and licensed clinical psychologist, I can relate to the feeling of running from appointment to appointment, from commitment to commitment, from day to day. Too much of modern living is about “getting by,” and “just getting through things” at the expense of joy. My work focuses upon supporting women in connecting more deeply with their experiences, with loved ones, and with themselves.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
