Divorce Therapists in Columbus, OH

I love to work with people of all ages, including children, adults, and older adults. I am experienced in helping clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and many other challenges. I have decades of experience working with diverse populations, and I have a keen awareness of how difficult life can be at times. I think that most people can benefit from a non-judgmental safe space to share and be supported. I believe that the client knows themselves the best and is the author of their life. I am here to make suggestions, share my clinical expertise, and offer encouragement and feedback.

Life is hard AND there is hope! As my clients work through their issues/concerns, whether it be grief/loss, struggles in their relationships - both romantic and platonic, and/or postpartum hurdles, it is a joy and honor to walk alongside them and show them that hope.

Life can be overwhelming. We all need some dedicated time to nurture and heal. Why should someone hire a therapist rather than just talk through their problems with a friend or family member? First of all, if you have someone in your life to whom you feel comfortable opening up, that is awesome. Keep doing that. We all need these vital human connections. But a therapist brings something a little different to the table than a best friend.

We all experience pain--it’s normal. A lot can unsettle us as humans--feelings of anxiety and depression; career and identity development; making meaning of unpleasant thoughts, feelings, sensations, and experiences; and navigating the balance between chaos and control, freedom and responsibility, connectedness and differentiation, action and paralysis. It's no wonder life feels difficult so much of the time! I'm passionate about helping people become more grounded and accepting of themselves as they grapple with these hazards of being human.

I enjoy working with a variety of clients, many of which are facing overwhelming life stressors and others who face unique circumstances and need help managing it. Those I typically work with are seeking new skills in a variety of areas, such as communication, coping, or interpersonal. However, I have a number of clients who simply need an unconditional ally to lend an ear and support them, which I greatly enjoy as well.

Immediate openings available! As a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT), I have experience working with a wide variety of couples and individuals (18+).

My ideal client is struggling with some emotional and decisional issues. They have a myriad of conflicting emotions and several options before them. They want to make the best choice with bearable consequences.

Life is full of good times, hard times, curveballs, and changes. Even when things seem to be going well, it can be difficult to enjoy it when the stress and pressure we place on ourselves tells us that we aren't measuring up. Therapy can be a great way to better understand ourselves and learn new ways to cope with those changes and feelings. Whether you are looking to learn new skills and strategies, process past experiences, or just find a safe place to vent and talk through the thoughts that are weighing on you, I'm here to walk with you on that journey.

We believe here at Diaspora that representation matters and are working towards increasing representation for the BIPOC community in mental health.

We enjoy working with clients who are open to understanding how adverse life experiences negatively impact thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and are ready to do the work of exploring these connections in therapy. We strive to build relationships with our clients based on the foundations of curiosity and empathy in a collaborative setting that is goal-oriented and relaxed, where their true self can be seen and feel accepted. Our overarching hope for clients is that through therapy they would believe they have inherent worth and value as human beings, apart from what they do, have, or what other people think and say about them.

Male Behavioral Health Inc. (MBH) is dedicated to addressing the profound mental, emotional, and behavioral health needs of men and boys through research, training, and direct practice.

For many clients, achieving their goals means increasing their capacity for acceptance of themselves and others, empathy and understanding of others, and being able to manage and share their emotions. I believe that a positive outcome of a successful counseling relationship is much more than the absence of symptoms or illness. Rather, it's the sustained ability to enthusiastically engage in all aspects of life: relationships, marriage and family, work, friends, and community.

Do you spend time thinking about the past or constantly worried about the future? Do you seek to know yourself better? I help people change the habits and behaviors that are not serving them, so they can lead more peaceful and balanced lives here in the present moment. We will work together to understand how your past informs who you are now, but does not define it. I help clients identify their negative thinking patterns that have kept them stuck in their lives. Together we will generate new, rational alternatives that will help you gain perspective about the life you want to be living.

Each day it seems that life presents a new challenge, often causing us to question certain decisions that we have made or to consider new paths that we would like to explore. My goal is to gain a clear picture of each individual's needs, explore new and more effective ways of problem solving, and help each individual develop greater insight and growth. I believe the relational component of therapy is essential and serves at the foundation for establishing trust, compassion, empathy, and respect. I have expertise in working with individuals of all ages: children, adolescents, adults and families.

(Currently not available for new clients) Your life story is full of successes and struggles, pain and joy, and we can work together to create a life that has meaning and that makes you proud. I will provide a safe space of acceptance for you to figure out who you are and who you want to be, without pressure or judgement. Through your courage, hard work, and vulnerability, you can reach your treatment goals.
