My ideal clients are people who feel stuck under the weight of stress, anxiety, grief, or trauma—whether the pain is recent or something they’ve carried for years. Many are high-functioning on the outside but internally feel depleted, on edge, or emotionally disconnected. They’re ready for practical, evidence-informed tools to calm the nervous system, make sense of what happened, and shift patterns that keep showing up in relationships, work, and daily life. Together, we work toward lasting change: greater clarity, steadier confidence, and a more grounded, integrated way of living.

After years of providing a broad range of services in the context of a traditional private practice office, which I closed at the end of 2017, I began doing therapy online. I decided to offer online services to maintain a limited professional practice, available to select clients for whom such a service delivery platform would be appropriate. Services are available to children, youth, adults, and families at the rate of $75 per 45-minute session and are payable via PayPal. I accept NO insurance, only self-pay clients.

I am a therapist who works primarily with adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, social challenges, and identity development. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and developmentally sensitive, with a strong emphasis on helping clients feel safe, understood, and respected in the therapy space.
I believe therapy works best when clients are met where they are, not where they are “supposed” to be. I focus on building genuine rapport and trust, often using creative, conversational, and experiential strategies—such as shared interests, and narrative exploration to reduce anxiety.

Christian therapist licensed in Ohio and Tennessee, specializing in attachment-focused couples therapy and trauma therapy via online sessions.
You end up in the same situation with different people. You react before you think, shut down when you want to stay open. You manage everyone's emotions, three steps ahead, but internally barely holding it together. You believe the right things but still struggle with anxiety or self-control; wondering if your faith isn't strong enough. Attachment patterns and nervous system responses operate beneath what can you see, creating disconnection. Relationship anxiety, emotional shutdown, repeating conflicts: these are the patterns that need reconditioning. I understand what it feels like being stuck in patterns you can't interrupt.

Part of "being in the solution" when times are difficult is what you are doing right now: looking for answers and the support to find them. Everyone is challenged by life events.

My approach is holistic, meaning that I pay attention to all aspects of a person's experience including their physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual well being.

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
