I work with a pragmatic framework with emphasis of Psychodynamic Theory as well as Attachment Theory. Our unique temperament and life experiences are important to consider when exploring one's issues, perceptions and problem solving abilities.
Client Centered approach includes each person's unique experience, their own goals for therapy and to explore their best problem solving abilities. I believe Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is helpful to counter certain thoughts, feeling and behaviors that impede one's personal growth. As a nurse and a therapist I'm aware of the importance of the mind-body connection for wellness

My goal as a therapist is to create a space where you feel safe to be open, heard, and free of judgment. Having been in therapy myself, I understand how honesty can accelerate growth and healing. Our work together will be collaborative but real—I’ll offer encouragement, accountability, and a little tough love when it’s needed. Think of me as the supportive older sibling who helps you face anxiety with humor and confidence. OCD therapy can feel intimidating, but it’s truly worth the effort.

You don’t have to carry everything alone. Whether you’re feeling anxious, down, or overwhelmed, therapy can help you find clarity, calm, and confidence. I work with adults, families, and children navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and life’s daily stressors. In our sessions, you’ll have a safe, collaborative space to explore what’s weighing on you, understand how the past shapes the present, and build practical strategies for healing, growth, and lasting change.

Are you tired of the same arguments that never end? Do you feel more like roommates than husband and wife? Maybe the spark has faded, and you’re just co-parenting, surviving, or walking on eggshells. You love each other—but the connection feels out of reach.

I'm a person-centered counselor who brings compassion, understanding, and genuineness to every session. Rather than focus on the diagnosis, I prefer look at the “big picture” of a client’s life to find the root cause of their concerns. We will explore how your thoughts, actions, environment, upbringing, and relationships might be affecting your mental health. We will then set goals to help you pinpoint where you want to be.

I serve clients in Ohio, Illinois, and DC. My approach to therapy is eclectic and tailored to fit each person I encounter. In general, I favor a relational approach that draws from psychodynamic perspectives. I understand how our earliest experiences and relationships can shape us, and I am deeply interested in what your early experiences and relationships taught you about the world. I also draw from third wave CBT modalities in order to assist you in unlearning those early lessons when needed. In this way, you can feel free to reshape living strategies which helped you to survive your past, but which are no longer serving you.

I am a licensed independent social worker who specializes in OCD and anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety, social anxiety, phobias and panic disorder). With three years of experience in private practice, I have found a passion for helping individuals radically accept fears and return to values-based living. I take a strengths-based approach in therapy, recognizing that everyone has unique inner resources. By acknowledging these qualities, we can do the hard work of exposures while also cultivating self-compassion and self-trust.

I work with adults who are carrying the weight of past trauma. This may be a single overwhelming event such as medical trauma, birth trauma, or sexual trauma, or a series of experiences that left you feeling unsafe, unseen, or out of control. You may have symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or panic that show up in your body even when life seems calm on the outside. I use EMDR and NARM to help you process what happened so you can feel more grounded, steady, and in control of your life and relationships. I also offer 3 lengths of sessions (50, 80, and 140 minutes) so you can work at a pace that you prefer.

I am committed to helping children and adults overcome stress and anxiety and live their best lives.

It is easy to feel stuck and not know how to move forward. Therapy can help you express your feelings, give you strategies to cope with intense emotions, improve relationships, and reduce the hold anxiety has over you. I would love to walk through this process with you and/or your child.
