We all have a story. It is a story we have been telling our whole lives. We add to this story with each new encounter and context. Sometimes our stories get warped by any number of life factors, and we can lose our sense of self. I see therapy as an opportunity to unravel and examine the story of you, to get to the “why” of you.

I do my best work with adults who are tired of codeswitching, masking, shrinking or carrying trauma alone. Maybe you want a space where you can simply be - where your identity doesn't need explaining and your experience is taken seriously. I provide trauma-informed, anti-oppressive therapy that affirms neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ adults, supporting you in noticing your needs, trusting your own wisdom, and living more fully and authentically.

My best guess is you’re here checking out potential therapists because you’re feeling a bit stuck; you’re ready for something new, or maybe you’re just sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. There are infinite reasons why individuals might seek out counseling and therapy services.  However, there is often a thread of “feeling stuck” or a sense of discomfort as a response to a stressful situation. Perhaps you are going through a difficult time in your life or maybe you’ve noticed a pattern of behavior that you would like to explore further.  Whatever the reason, I’m here to help.

First, let me say thank you for considering me to walk this journey with you. I know that therapy isn’t easy and healing isn’t linear. I want you to know how brave you are for taking the first step to finding a therapist—I know it wasn’t easy. I believe that allowing clients the space to be heard, valued, understood, safe and authentic is key to fostering trust within the therapeutic relationship and ultimately facilitating change. I consider myself an eclectic and integrative therapist and some of the modalities I use are Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy.

You’re holding a lot — maybe too much. You’re showing up for everyone, but inside you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. My clients are often navigating relationship stress, life transitions, burnout, or the weight of unspoken generational wounds. Through trauma-informed therapy, I help individuals, couples, and families slow down, unpack what’s heavy, and reconnect with clarity, confidence, and joy. Together, we build the tools and self-trust needed to move forward — rooted, resilient, and more like yourself again.

If you are looking to overcome everyday life issues, you might wanna come talk to me. If you identify as BIPOC, LGBTQ+, TGNC, a parent, a person living with HIV, and/or a teenager aged 15+, live at any intersection of the above identities, or just want a good provider, come talk to me. If you are in need to actively work on your issues and are looking to have a brave space where you can work on your concerns, I can provide that. Therapy is a place for you to be able to not only vent, but also a space for you to evolve beyond the current form of yourself into your more idealized self. I would be honored to help you through that.

I offer telehealth counseling. Therapy can be a scary thought, but it's a space for you to find yourself again and re-experience life. As a therapist, I am aware of the stigma surrounding mental health, and I know taking the first step to come to therapy can be difficult. I strive to create a warm, inclusive, welcoming environment to allow clients to express themselves openly and honestly without judgment. We walk through the world holding many different experiences that make us unique: race, gender, sexual orientation, and more. I work with my clients to grant themselves permission to feel their feelings and walk forward.

I'm Logan (they/them) and I'm an East Asian non-binary person who has lived insight into what it’s like to exist outside the majority in a state like Ohio. I’ve lived in the Midwest my whole life, and I also come from a background of being raised by immigrant communities. I have experience working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities, systemic-based trauma, and religious trauma. I believe it's crucial right now to decolonize identity-specific therapy spaces, especially for QTBIPOC who face marginalization in multiple ways.

Sometimes the journey of life can take us to places where we don’t want to be. That place can leave us feeling scared, isolated, anxious, hurt, traumatized, and disconnected from those we care about. It is a complete joy and honor to work with individuals and couples as they face these difficulties or are being proactive in ways to navigate the places where life may take them. I believe the client is the expert of their own life and I get to help them navigate the complexities of life and relationships.

Life can be hard at times. Trust me, I get it. Navigating our interpersonal relationships can be difficult. Whether it is challenges in our romantic relationships, managing our children’s behavior concerns, or establishing healthy boundaries with our friends and family – It can be tough. Struggles in relationships can lead to depression or anxiety, self-doubt, or lack of confidence. Often we know that we want a change, but be unsure how to achieve that change.

You’re worried that your teenage daughter is suffering from self-doubt and anxiety. You can see these things holding her back from connecting with friends and experiencing life. You’ve watched her avoid her daily obligations and school work to drown herself in social media to feel better, but you know it doesn’t help. Some days, you see her struggle to be understood, trying to fit in, but she’s alone. You want so badly to help her, but she doesn’t talk to you. It breaks your heart to watch her pull further away, and you feel powerless to reach her. You just want her to find the support she needs to feel confident and happy again.
