Wauseon, OH 43567
As a counselor, and more specifically a counselor with over three decades of experience, and my aim is simply to help people. My MSW (Master of Social Work) from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Additionally, I obtain my Independent License in Social Work, and I can supervise other licensed social workers (LISW-S). I serve to help all people reach their goals in healthy ways. Counseling is not just something I do for an income, it is who I am, for I have a "spirit of counsel" that directs what I do inside & outside the counseling setting. I didn't really choose to be a counselor; it is more like I was called to counsel.

In a compassionate and supportive atmosphere, I utilize holistic, personalized, and evidenced based approachs to treat anxiety disorders, trauma, ADHD, depression, relational issues, and complex medical needs.

Understanding oneself and the difficulties life provide are keys to unlocking a greater sense of self and perspective of the traits that make us who we are.  As we work together as a team, I can help shed light on the interworking of oneself to help you move through life with resilience, peace, and well-being.

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and have worked with couples, teens and individuals struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression.
I serve clients who want to gain self insight. This often gives clients relief from depression and anxiety because they have discovered their triggers, thought patterns and internal beliefs that have lead them to their presenting symptoms. I love serving couples who struggle with communication and have a desire to feel connected and "seen" by their partner.

You never thought you would feel like this, but here you are. You're feeling lost and uncertain of yourself, your relationships, even your feelings. You don't know what direction you are heading or where you should go. You've tried to explain your feelings to those closest to you, but being vulnerable is some scary shit. It's all so exhausting. All you know is that you are ready to make some changes. You are tired of feeling stuck and the changes might be scary, but nothing is as frightening as staying like this. You haven't felt like yourself in a long time and trying to find that version of you on your own isn't working right now.

ADHD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for ADHD?

You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.

How does treatment for ADHD work?

Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.

Are there specific medications for ADHD?

Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.

How long does treatment for ADHD take?

It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
