I provide online counseling for medical trainees in Ohio. I help medical trainees learn new ways of handling difficult thoughts and feelings so they can overcome challenging situations that show up in their lives. I understand the medical system you work in. I have direct clinical experience with medical trainees, and I’ve worked alongside medical students, residents, and attendings as a primary care psychologist. I’ve had honest conversations with medical trainees about how medical culture can contribute to the stigma around mental health and make it harder to ask for help.

Depression, anxiety, and trauma can quietly shape how you experience life—making everyday challenges feel heavier, and more overwhelming. Infertility, loss, and postpartum depression can each bring deep emotional pain—but they often share common threads: grief for what was hoped for, isolation that can feel hard to put into words, and the quiet pressure to keep going even when everything feels heavy. If you’re navigating any of these experiences, you’re not alone. My passion is walking with people through their darkest valleys to find the light with an emphasis on restoration and hope.

You look like you’re holding it together but internally you’re overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling on edge. You may replay conversations, feel responsible for others’ emotions, or struggle to fully relax even when nothing’s wrong. Many of my clients learned early to stay invisible or push through without support, and now feel stuck in anxiety, shutdown, or exhaustion. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, and depression to help break these patterns, regulate their nervous system, and process what’s unresolved so they can feel more grounded, present, and like themselves again.

Let's be honest- we all struggle. Sharing openly and honestly about our struggles is powerful. Life's difficulties take many forms but often our tendency is to go it alone, to hide it, to wait for it to go away. Counseling is seizing an opportunity to move towards greater fulfillment, whether that is for an important relationship, helping your child/family, resolving problems from the past that replay themselves in your today or coping with difficult life circumstances and illnesses. Counseling is a worthwhile investment in a valuable you; life is too short to do otherwise.

Experiencing the weight of intense emotions associated with depression or anxiety is too common. There might be a perceived distance between yourself and your loved ones. Dissatisfaction with relationships involving parents, children, or significant others is not uncommon. It can sometimes feel like nobody truly comprehends what you're going through. Whether dealing with family or relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, or other life stressors, therapy can be a pivotal step toward healing.

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.

You might look like you have it together on the outside but inside, your mind won’t slow down. Anxiety, pressure, or past experiences can make even everyday life feel exhausting. You’re constantly thinking, pushing, and trying to keep up… but it never really feels like enough. You don’t have to keep carrying that alone. I work with people who are used to being the strong one, the ones others rely on, who are ready to finally feel more steady, clear, and in control again. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what’s been weighing on you, and build a way forward that actually feels sustainable.
