Taking the first steps toward asking for help requires a great deal of self-awareness and courage, so you are already moving in the direction of growth. And, as difficult as the journey of healing and self-discovery can be, you are never alone. Whether you struggle with past trauma, current crises or life stressors, toxic family dynamics, or a pervasive mood disorder like depression or anxiety, I am here for you. I will never judge, condemn, or ridicule you. I am here to provide empathy, support, guidance, and validation throughout the counseling process.

Most people who reach out to me are not looking for someone to just listen. They are looking for help that actually leads somewhere and for someone to be beside them as they move forward. I offer online therapy for people who need that, specifically couples, parents, and people across Ohio, dealing with anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges.

Are you noticing the same patterns showing up in your life and relationships—no matter how much you try to change them?
At some point, insight alone isn’t enough. You may understand why you do what you do, but still feel stuck repeating it.
I work with adults who are ready to go deeper than surface-level coping. Together, we look at how your past experiences, family dynamics, and internal patterns are shaping your current life - often in ways that are hard to see on your own.

Whether you want to feel better, sleep better, think and focus better, communicate better, have a better connection with people, it all comes down to living a better life. I help people to achieve any goal, whether it's using hypnosis to kick a bad habit, such as smoking or overeating; or changing negative beliefs, such as not being good enough; or tending to grief and loss by obtaining closure, insight or a deeper understanding of why something ended the way it did, or learning meditation and mindfulness to assist with reaching their full potential. I create a customized approach that suits each client's individual preferences.

You’re the one who keeps it together for everyone else, but inside, your mind won’t slow down. Many of my clients are thoughtful, analytical people who understand the “why” behind their struggles, yet still feel stuck. I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, identity questions, and difficult relationship dynamics. I often support therapists, teachers, and professionals who spend a lot of time in their heads and want help turning insight into meaningful change.

Over 20 years of counseling experience has taught me that we must examine what is happening beneath our symptoms. Our bodies hold on to painful memories and the engine inside revs continually until it finally cannot withstand any longer. It emits uncomfortable sensations and emotions until the pain becomes enough to get our full attention. I'll help you "turn off the engine" of trauma so you can engage a system of beliefs and emotions that help you feel more like yourself again. I see therapy as both art and science, and I love dancing between the two as I seek to be fully present with my clients in whatever they bring that day.

I believe that life’s truest purpose is a journey toward wholeness - toward our center. However, it seems inevitable that at some point in everyone's life, the thread that connects us to our deepest center becomes frayed or lost. We may experience this as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, physical illness, feeling "stuck", and more. Work with me is process of exploring the possible meaning and value of these symptoms. Together we will work to find out if these painful experiences have deeper meaning.

I have over 35 years clinical experience, training in gestalt and pyschoanalytic psychotherapy, mindfulness based stress reduction. My goal is to increase your awareness of who you are, why you respond and/or make the choices that you do and look for alternatives. I find that life is a journey that never ends, I hope people find internal contentment, tranquility, and learn to care about themselves. All we do is talk about events of your past and how you were effected. I take what I do seriously, but due to the intensity of what we do, try to have fun in the process.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
