Family Therapy in Orrville, OH

I believe that everyone can use some extra support in life sometimes. Whether that is due to a current life situation in which you might need someone to listen to you and/or provide some extra support and guidance or you are struggling with past experiences. I also understand how difficult it can be to reach out and start the process of counseling and to find someone that you feel you can connect with. My goal is to help you feel supported and heard during these times while helping you navigate through changes, self esteem concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression and whatever else you may need. I hope together we can reach your goals.

My current practice includes a focus on mental health needs for adults and young adults. I have past experience working in a nursing home setting so I am well versed in Alzheimer's and Dementia Care and Behaviors as well as family and caregiver needs for that population.
