We use Christian-based cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and cognitive processing therapy for individuals.
Are you feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed by life’s transitions or past trauma? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep carrying it all by yourself. We help individuals and couples heal from the inside out—emotionally, relationally, and spiritually—so they can reconnect with their purpose, rebuild trust, and live with greater peace and clarity. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, relationship strain, trauma, or low self-worth, we offer a compassionate, faith-integrated space where you can feel safe, seen, and supported. Healing and change is possible. And together, we can start that journey—one step at a time.

From a Biblical- Christian worldview, I integrate faith with evidence-based care to support healing, restore hope, and strengthen connection.
Depression, anxiety, and the weight of daily stress can leave you feeling isolated, lonely, or disconnected—from yourself or your partner. These feelings often show up in subtle but painful ways, affecting communication, parenting, intimacy, trust, and stealing our motivation to embrace the things or people we used to love. Whether you’re facing challenges as a couple or on your own, it doesn’t mean you are broken. These struggles are part of the human experience. With the right support, it’s possible to feel heard, understood, and reconnected—to yourself and to those you love.

Are you struggling with parenthood? Maybe that means having difficulty achieving/maintaining pregnancy, or struggling with a postpartum transition. Our society does not always give women and families the support they need to thrive, or a safe place to talk about issues such as miscarriage, birth trauma or infant loss. I want to be that safe place. Issues such as infertility, postpartum depression or anxiety and adoption can make what should be a joyful time into one of the most difficult times of one's life instead. I would be honored to walk with you in creating the family you want and becoming the best parent you can be!

For those who desire it, I thoughtfully integrate Christian faith with evidence-based practice.
In the fast-paced world we live in, it can feel necessary to appear successful on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or anxious underneath. Relationships may grow strained by recurring conflict or emotional distance. Self-doubt and pressure to perform can quietly build. What’s often desired isn’t just symptom relief, but clarity, steadiness, and deeper connection—sustainable change that brings relationships, values, and purpose into alignment.

GOING THROUGH A HARD TIME? Much like sedimentary rock forms over time, our early experiences are deposited within us layer upon layer, shaping who we are today. But even once rock is formed, it doesn’t ever stay the same. There are natural forces that are RE-forming it continually. And the same is true for us. So when we’re not aware a formational process is taking place, the events of our lives can sometimes be confusing, uncomfortable, or even downright painful. REformation Coaching helps you embrace naturally occurring experiences and engage with them in a way that allows YOU to determine how they ultimately reshape your life.

One unique specialty I have is working with neurodivergent individuals, whether it be autism, ADHD, trauma, etc. I am both autistic and ADHD myself, and have an autistic child. This puts me in a unique position to truly understand what parents may be struggling with, but also offer a different perspective from your neurotypical therapist. My ideal clientele consist of neurodivergent individuals, parents raising autistic children, and family members of neurodivergent individuals. I am a very laid back therapist, but also firm on boundaries and in necessary parts of treatment.

You have probably had this thought come across your mind more frequently. “At this point, I need to get a therapist, because this is too much”. Well, thankfully I am glad you decided that at this point, you are ready to take the next steps to your healing journey. My name is Paris and I am a independently licensed professional counselor in both Ohio and Texas. I have had a passion for mental health ever since I had my own personal experience and journey with it as a preteen, and that fire hasn’t died down yet. I truly believe therapy is a place not only to evolve, elevate, and heal from past hurt and traumas, but find peace.

My therapy journey began with a passion to serve underserved people, particularly those struggling with mental illness and lacking resources. This grew into a passion to impact systems serving individuals with mental health issues, trauma, and substance use. I am now refocusing my time on individuals rather than systems. I take a client-centered and collaborative approach to therapy. It can be scary to allow someone into your struggle, and many of us have good reason not to trust others. Starting therapy takes courage, and I congratulate you on taking this step.
