Therapists in Worthington, OH

A shift in your emotions and beliefs can shift your whole life. Feelings, such as depression, despair, anxiety and fear take you out of alignment with functional living and with creating what you want in your life. Our body is in part the product of our habits, beliefs, thoughts and feelings. If you put enough stress on yourself you will create disease. Disease can't live in a body/mind that is present and healthy emotionally. I support you to create body/mind/spirit health on a deep cellular level making the difference, between healing or not healing.

Struggling with worry, a life transition, or a need for a life change? I am a California University trained clinical child-school psychologist and clinician, with postgraduate education in health and fitness psychology at Stanford University.

I am passionate about helping adults and children navigate through the complexities of life, make positive changes, learn to tolerate distressing emotions, while improving relationships. I work to create a warm, playful, and welcoming environment where we can develop a shared understanding of YOU and your goals.

Deciding to attend therapy is a courageous act that can result in life altering and life affirming outcomes. I believe in providing a safe and supportive environment based on unconditional positive regard and focusing on personal strengths. Therapy is a process whereby clients have the opportunity to explore their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors, and find out how to make changes toward a more fulfilling life. I see therapy as a collaborative process where I help clients identify therapy goals and establish their own measures of progress. Together we find and work toward solutions that can make life more rewarding.

Taking the first steps toward healing can be difficult. It helps to have someone at your side making you feel safe, validated, and heard. I strive to help every client find their strengths, achieve their goals, and leave session feeling a little lighter than when they arrived. I have experience working with clients of all ages and backgrounds in community mental health settings and private practice. I have worked with clients experiencing a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and more.

You likely have burning questions about your love life. Singles ask: how can I make my Bumble profile stand out? Should I prioritize compatibility or chemistry with potential partners? How do I start over after divorce? Dating + engaged couples ask: should we move in together? Why does she still talk about her ex? Is this guy husband-material? Married spouses ask: why do we keep having the same fight? Is it wrong that I'm attracted to other people? What happened to our sex life? Poly partners ask: are we doing this right? Should we meet each other's partners? How do I handle jealousy?

Life can be hard. I work with clients facing stress, adversity, loss of a loved one, confusion within a relationship, anger, communication breakdown or betrayal within a marriage, strains from the reality of parenting, confusion of life as a teen, feeling lost, facing divorce, balancing co-parenting, or "just" figuring out our place in the world. Gracious- we face a lot! Brene Brown has a wonderful quote that says "loving ourselves through the process of owning our stories is the bravest thing we will ever do." I agree but find that often, we aren't quite sure how to love ourselves. How do we own our story?
