Therapists in Upper Arlington, OH

Welcome adults, teens, LGBTQ, couples, and families who are in need of a therapist with a sense of humor, engaging personality, perceptive mind, and caring attitude. As a client, you will experience a safe, non-judgmental place in which to process and explore feelings related to mood disorders, relationship issues, ADHD, grief, anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma. It is my goal to provide my clients with the tools necessary to take charge of their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to reduce stress and enjoy life.

We all have a multitude of experiences throughout our lives the shape the story we tell ourselves about who we are and who we have the potential to become. As a therapist, my job is not to rewrite your story, but to offer perspective and guidance as we work together in identifying any roadblocks to becoming the version of yourself that is the most fulfilling. I specialize in working with individuals who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues, and relationship concerns.

Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or in a difficult relationship, therapy can help create more balance and renewed connection with others. Trained in Marriage and Family Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I use evidenced based practices to work with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, and life transitions, as well as, couples and family therapy. My philosophy about therapy is that everyone needs to experience safety, confidentiality and feel understood in order to make necessary changes that can lead to more fulfilling life choices.

When you're with me, trust that it will be a HIPAA compliant, safe and secure experience, with optional, scheduled office appointments upon request. Who is a typical client and what brings him or her to seek help? You are an individual who may have a busy schedule, a family, or perhaps a physical or psychological mobility issue. You are someone who may have no previous exposure to therapy, counseling or consultation services, or someone who is a seasoned traveler. Whatever the reason, your comprehensive needs are my professional priority.

I believe that every person is the expert of their own life and has the ability to both accept and change what will give them a life worth living, and I strive to help each individual see their unique strengths.

Have you recently lost a loved one? Moved away from family or lost a job? Graduated and felt unsure what to do next? Did a relationship end that left you feeling heartbroken? Have you lost motivation to get tasks done and spend time with friends? I can help you process your loss, learn coping skills, understand why you feel the way you feel, and most importantly, adjust to your new normal.

At Wild Hope Therapy, we believe that therapy can be impactful and enriching while still feeling down-to-earth and accessible. We value collaboration, cultural humility, and seeing you as the expert of your own experience.

Is your thought life helping you are hurting you? Are there challenges from your past that are still impacting your present relationships, view of your self, or hindering your ability to see a happy healthy future for your self? If you are struggling with issues related to depression, grief, addiction, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, a transitional time in your life, or spirituality concerns, I'd be happy to help you heal, engage in the process of becoming your highest self, and begin to operate in purpose.

I am a licensed independent social worker and my clinical emphasis lies in treating trauma, eating disorders, anxiety and life transitions. In addition to private practice, I have provided psychotherapy in various settings such as in home; inpatient for co-occurring disorders and in an outpatient setting for general mental health and domestic violence.

My goal in therapy is to provide my clients with the space that they are needing. I am skills-based in my therapy and am happy to provide education and practice with coping skills. I work toward client-centered goals with you and look at any barriers to meeting those goals. I myself am diagnosed with ADHD and love to hold space for those that are neurodivergent and provide a place to take down your mask. Body image and self-esteem are also topics that I am passionate about exploring with my clients if there is interest in that.

The world has a funny way of pointing out all the ways we seem to fall short. This often leads to thoughts and behaviors that get in our own way of personal growth and self-acceptance. Let's work to identify and focus on your strengths, change unhealthy thinking patterns, tackle challenging decisions, maintain healthy relationships, cope with difficult realities, and heal from emotional pain. I celebrate your decision to consider counseling. It is a choice that is already evidence of your strength and courage. You are unique and so should be your therapy. I utilize an integrative approach to discover together what is best for you!
