Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Hyde Park, Cincinnati, OH

So often as women, we are too busy fulfilling the many roles we occupy that we put our values, needs, and desires on the backburner. I can help you to get back in touch (or in touch for the first time!) with your values and what’s important to you. Whether you’re juggling the many facets of motherhood (trying to get pregnant, having a difficult pregnancy, struggling postpartum), going through a difficult life transition, grieving any kind of loss, struggling with depression or anxiety, I’m here to help find a way forward.

At Reedy-Kay and Associates we are a small but mighty group practice of 5 clinicians who specialize in supporting parents and parents-to-be so that they can be the best version of themselves. Parenting is such hard work! We are often unintentionally carrying our unaddressed trauma and behavioral patterns into parenting and need support to heal and have the positive impact we want to have on our kids. We are here to help you find confidence and healing! We will build on our lived experiences as mamas and extensive advanced professional training to help you grow into the parent you want to be.

Like so many of us, life has had some unexpected twists and turns. Whether you are grieving, sensing a growing distance with your spouse, having trouble taking care of your family, struggling to form meaningful relationships, recovering from a divorce or break up, unsure how to help your adult children, experiencing mood swings, struggling with work or school, relocating, struggling with pregnancy or learning that being a mom or dad is a lot harder than you imagined, I can help you feel less overwhelmed and more fulfilled. My goal is to help you feel better by providing direct, honest, respectful, and supportive feedback.

I enjoy working with people who struggle with depression and/or anxiety. Ideally, their goals would be to improve their overall functioning and quality of life. My ideal client would be able to put in the necessary work to accomplish their goals. My therapy style is authentic, empathetic, and validating. I believe in incorporating various treatment modalities that are based on the individual needs of my clients.

There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.

Sometimes life is complicated and having a safe place to sort things out can be helpful. It is important to take time and address anything that may be affecting your wellbeing. Whether you are dealing with long term mental health issues, something more current, stress or changes in life, or with work or family, therapy is a great way to begin taking care of yourself. As our lives continue to grow and change it is easy to get overwhelmed and having the guidance of a trusted professional can make a difference in how you feel about yourself and your life.

I'm not sure I have an ideal client. I believe in meeting a person where they are and moving forward from there. I feel people often come to therapy to help find the best version of themselves. I enjoy helping others find solutions to their problems, helping them identify their strengths, and deciding how to improve their weaknesses.

Sometimes, the mental and emotional load of life can feel overwhelming. You’re being pulled in a million different directions and trying to meet what can feel like impossible demands. You have so much going on that you start to feel like you’ve lost yourself. The feelings of depression and anxiety start to creep in, and you find yourself leaning on unhealthy behaviors like substance use or mindless doom scrolling on your phone to cope and distract. It doesn't have to be this way- I can help.

Hello! I am a board-certified Dance/Movement Therapist, EMDR certified and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I strive to assist my clients to move through challenging experiences by helping them with understanding the power of the mind/body connection.

I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to make changes in their life utilizing a holistic approach connecting the mind and body. My approach is warm but direct; I aim to walk alongside you on your therapeutic journey while also challenging you to think deeply about how your choices and patterns are influencing your life. Attending therapy is a vulnerable decision, so being a safe space to process difficult experiences is essential. I work to establish a comfortable, trusting relationship with my clients as we work together to identify, process, and challenge the barriers life puts in their way.

I specialize in helping couples with various relationship concerns. Whether there are long-standing issues or new challenges, it is possible to reach a deeper understanding of yourself and your partner by addressing the problems in couples therapy. My approach includes collaborating with you to develop fresh alternatives to ineffective communication patterns, recognizing and honoring the best of you and your partner, and helping you find a way to relate on a deeper level in your relationship. Your relationship can become the haven you hoped for --- a supportive environment where love and growth take place

Life changes. Some life changes can be anticipated or predicted; some occur spontaneously, without notice or warning. Regardless of how they occur, all require adaptation and adjustment to what is different or new. We seldom have much difficulty with small changes—those that don’t disrupt a familiar lifestyle or a solid sense of self. Other life changes can be more challenging, sometimes making navigation from the present uncertain, frightening, and maybe even overwhelming. The counseling process can promote successful transitioning and significant personal growth in the course of life changes.
