Therapists in Franklin Park, Toledo, OH

Wrestling with life's issues can be challenging - especially when trying to do it alone. It can be overwhelming and/or painful attempting to navigate through the questions and uncertainties that sometimes come up. In 20+ years working with diverse populations in the helping professions, in all the stories I've heard, what typically stands out is the need to know and understand self, the things that happen to us, how it all fits together - making meaning, and how to move forward and find a sense of purpose. "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom" - Anais Nin

As a therapist, I am driven by the desire to help individuals become happy, confident advocates to attain needs and goals within their lives, overcoming barriers of systemic, chronic, and/or situational adversities that continue to hold them back. I specialize in treating people who want to work through trauma, addiction, and/or mental health challenges. People who enjoy working with me often like my sarcastic humor and direct, but compassionate, approach.

My goal as a counselor is to equip children and families with tools to take on life's challenges. By using creative, play-based interventions, I strive to make the counseling process fun and engaging for your child. I use a strengths-based approach to help children develop coping skills to manage their emotions and advocate for their needs. Beyond children, I also enjoy working with educators who are facing the current challenges in education, as well as providing support to young adults who are navigating transitions. My experience includes treating anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, low self-esteem, grief, and behavioral issues.

I provide motivational alternatives to address mental or emotional disorders, addiction, and adjustment to life events which may impair your ability to function comfortably. My 26 years of professional experience have included extensive work with people who suffer from PTSD, mood disorders, gender dysphoria, severe illness/injury, personality disorders, court involvement, and life transitions. I have a special interest in working with gifted adolescent males and those on the Autism Spectrum. I have had the privilege of assisting several individuals through gender confirmation/transition.

As a licensed professional counselor and school psychologist working with children ages seven and up, adolescents, and those transitioning into young adulthood, I am passionate about creating a safe space in counseling for people to be the truest versions of themselves. I view the counseling relationship as being inherently collaborative, empowering, and supportive, fueled by trust and hope. I utilize a cognitive-behavioral, trauma-informed, and person-centered approach, as well as play therapy, motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavioral techniques in my counseling work.

Life can be challenging. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and/or more, it may be time to reach out. I became a therapist due to my strong belief in the transformative power of therapy. My goal as a therapist is to help people better understand how they came to think, feel, and behave in ways that are not serving them well in order to then help them to actualize the change, growth, and healing that they want to see in order to lead to more satisfying and deliberate lives. I work well with individuals who want to improve their lives and who are committed to the process.
