I’m a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) based in Columbus, Ohio. I take a relaxed, collaborative, and conversational approach to therapy focused on helping clients feel genuinely understood, accepted, and comfortable being themselves. I feel that meaningful therapy starts with connection, warmth, and trust.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, stress, and life transitions (college, divorce, career changes). I especially enjoy working with “over-thinkers” — people who are highly self-aware, constantly analyzing, and often stuck in cycles of worry, perfectionism, or self-doubt.

Trauma makes us feel disconnected from ourselves and others, and can make it difficult to create a fulfilling life. It can lead to feeling that you are out of touch with yourself, like your responses are hard to control and having feelings of shame. I want to help you feel whole, to be able to regulate yourself, and to feel in control of your life again. Post-traumatic stress is incredibly difficult to live with, and with the right tools, you can heal and return to who you want to be.

No matter what our body size, we can find ourselves out of balance with our eating, thoughts, and emotions when we are desperately trying to stay afloat with the demands of life, family, work, and other obligations. Instead of acknowledging what we do well, we may focus on our shortcomings and criticize our abilities and bodies. A vicious cycle of trying to control our weight and eating can lead to further criticism, guilt and disappointment. At Eating & Behavioral Health Associates, I work with adults of all sizes and body types to find compassion and ease in their life by bringing balance into their thinking, eating and behaviors.

Relationships and sex are among the most personal aspects of our lives. Entrusting someone with those stories is a meaningful step. My practice is a space for folks who want to confront lifelong patterns and make intentional shifts toward pleasure and connection.
Using a combination of AASECT-certified sex therapy, EMDR, and Relational Life Therapy (RLT), I provide affirming care that honors your unique identity—whether you are navigating trauma, sexual functioning, or the nuances of non-monogamy. My goal isn't to give you a 'standard' solution, but to provide holistic care that feels authentic to your life.
