Spirituality Therapists in Cincinnati, OH

"Life is what happens when you've made other plans." When "life happens", we are often thrown off balance. It is difficult to maintain or discern a healthy perspective. Perhaps it's time to get help and support! I believe that although individuals may go through difficult or traumatic circumstances, each of us has his/her own answers for healing within. Through holistic and humanistic interactions, I act as a guide for you to find those answers. I choose treatment modalities to meet the individual client's needs, including person-centered, solution-focused, Gestalt, Mindfulness, spirituality , life coaching, EMDR, and Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy.

All of us have a story - and we all tell stories. I believe that the stories we tell about ourselves and others hold a heavy hand in our quality of life and the way that we view the world around us. I am passionate about counseling because I yearn to create space where others feel safe to explore and discover their authentic self – to feel heard, seen, and known. Throughout our sessions, I will create space for every part of you and will help you to discover and re-write the stories that no longer serve you.

Life can be arduous, yet adversity is not insurmountable. I'm here to journey with you as you seek clarity and healing. Using a mindfulness and strengths-based approach, you can build your natural resiliency, while uncovering patterns that lead to emotional malaise, relationship struggles, sexual concerns, and transition difficulties. I work with teens and adults of all ages. If spirituality offers you a source of support, I am enthusiastic about interweaving your faith values, as you please.

My professional experience with grief and anger, and my experience of healing from childhood wounds and significant loss, impacts my work by encouraging a heart and mind open to the goodness of the human soul, the possibility of healing of mental disease, and an acceptance of every faith tradition. I am ready to work with individuals and couples using mindfulness, a variety of individualized cognitive therapies, and spiritual development based on my professional training and life experience. I especially want to be of service to men with anger, addiction, depression, grief, and PTSD issues.

People possess an astonishing and incredible natural capacity to heal themselves both mentally and physically. But, many are not able to find their path through life's complex and sometimes painful questions. Therapy can be the catalyst for healing by peeling back the layers to find your innate, intuitive wisdom about yourself. My role as your therapist is to be your champion- to accept you and unconditionally support you, no matter what you are facing or experiencing.

We all struggle at times and want to make positive changes in our life and to grow. We all want to feel less afraid, more comfortable in our own skin, more free, more whole, and more alive. I provide a safe and non-judgement environment and will help you explore and gain a deeper understanding of and connection with yourself and the world around you. I will work together with you to help you grow, heal and learn new ways of relating to yourself, being in the world and responding to life and its challenges.

Anxiety and depression are often messengers that tell us where we might need to change our course, relationships, or how we treat ourselves. I'll help you find solid solutions to your anxiety and/or depression, feelings of being stuck, narcissistic abuse, people-pleasing and become whole again. Do you often feel others take advantage of you? Have you been called sensitive? Are you an empath? Have you lost your confidence? I can help you to understand your personally unique gifts and set goals so you can begin to really love your life! I am not judgmental. I've been through these things too. l will come along side you!

Thinking and feeling in ways that allow you to engage your daily life, others, and your personal goals with energy, creativity, and effectiveness is the thrust of my approach and practice. Identifying patterns that restrict cognitive and behavioral functioning, preventing understanding and integration of personal and interpersonal dynamics is a key focus. Increasing self awareness and understanding through enhancing mindfulness, expanding thinking about self and others, and developing behavior patterns that mobilize personal strengths, assets, and motivation is the goal of the work.

I offer a collaborative approach to find the best way to support you with your specific needs. Therapy should be a partnership that allows you an opportunity to contribute to the healing process. I have a laid back personality with a good sense of humor that helps others feel comfortable opening up. I believe that your counseling experience should be tailored to you and your specific needs. I work to facilitate open communication so that you feel comfortable collaborating on the best treatment for you.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults on a variety of issues. I am an Adlerian therapist, which means I see value in belonging and meaning-making. I also integrate neuroscience while building relationships with my clients. This is especially useful when helping clients work through developmental issues, trauma, and grief. Situations and experiences do not define us. Instead, with insight and support, we have the opportunity to define who we are and what we might contribute to the world. I have also studied appropriate techniques for incorporating spirituality as a source of hope and connectedness to culture and community.

At Insight Therapeutic Services, I emphasize the integration of body, mind and spirit. I recognize that all three aspects of one's self must be balanced in order to maximize our human potential. You will feel calm, relaxed and safe in my comfortable, Blue Ash office environment. I have experience working with a wide variety of clients. I have worked with families, couples and individuals affected by severe mental illness, those who were struggling with transitional life stressors as well as grief, pain and mortality issues.

I help individuals, couples, and families reach a new level of personal and spiritual growth. By developing your spiritual strength you'll be able to overcome what is now considered impossible to achieve. Let's talk about what God has in store for you. Through assessments, analysis, and spiritual guidance, me and my associates can help you achieve your professional goals and revitalize relationships.

Feeling overwhelmed? There is hope! My passion is to help couples and individuals heal from emotional pain and trauma.

You wish there was someone who understood you; someone you could talk to without being judged or made to feel bad about your feelings. You’ve suffered a great loss and you haven’t been the same since. You’re wondering if the pain will ever go away and if you’ll ever be happy again. Life has been hard and you’ve questioned if it’s even worth living. You’re bombarded with mental images, thoughts, or reminders about a trauma that won't seem to go away. Grief and trauma have a way of changing our entire world. You desperately want to feel hope again. Or maybe you're experiencing stress and worry about other major life transitions.
