Teletherapy for 45242

You or your adolescent may be experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional sensitivity, relationship issues or difficulty focusing. I have extensive experience as a doctoral-level cognitive behavioral therapist and I believe helping individuals understand how their thoughts and behaviors contribute to intense emotions is key to mental health. Challenging unhealthy thinking and learning how to think differently can be very effective. I teach specific and diverse skills and coach people on using them in real-life situations. I often share behavioral management techniques to help clients gain control over repetitive or compulsive actions and reduce anxiety in feared situations.

Note: Currently Accepting New Clients. It sounds simple, but accepting yourself, connecting with others, and building a happy life can be difficult, especially if you don’t have enough support. That's where a caring, experienced counselor can come in handy. Therapy isn’t the same as friendship, but with me there are plenty of similarities. For one thing, I won’t just keep repeating, “How does that make you feel?” On the contrary, we’ll talk together about your life, explore new possibilities, and maybe even share a few laughs. I ask questions and listen, of course, but I also offer clear, practical guidance.

Life can be an emotional roller coaster, and sometimes we feel stuck, out of control, or hopeless. We can feel inadequate and misunderstood.. What makes us successful are the coping skills we learn to use, the ability to set boundaries, and proper communication. Together, we will create a plan to address what’s holding you back, and at the same time enhance your strengths. I prefer to meet with my clients on a weekly basis, which is typically the most effective way for you to meet your treatment goals. The length of treatment varies with each individual or couple, which we can discuss together.

My goal is to help my clients identify what they most want in their lives and assist them in building the directed motivation, emotional strength and skills needed to achieve those goals. I am passionate about developing strong individuals and families to enable them to reach their highest level of purpose, passion, and functioning. You may be ready to jump in or need to more fully understand your past, present, or future goals before you can move forward. Wherever you are, I will meet you there.

Life can be really intimidating, especially if you’re a twenty-something. You set high expectations for yourself. The pressures of work, school, friends, family, and maintaining a social life keep growing and it's becoming overwhelming. You tend to put yourself and your needs behind the needs of others. It can feel hard to say no and set boundaries with people in your life. Internally, you feel worried and overthink. You're anxious and stressed. It's uncomfortable and exhausting to feel this way. Your goal is to be happy & successful, but something keeps holding you back from living your life to the fullest.

Therapist for neurodivergent adults. I am ND-affirming and accepting of self-diagnosis. I use a very non-traditional approach to help you find your most authentic and self. I am trauma informed and use lived experience to build strong relationships with my clients. I specialize in dissociative disorders, unmasking autism and accepting disability, internalized ableism, religious trauma, LGBTQ+ community, and family or origin trauma.

Sometimes in life we may find ourselves in a “stuck” place, repeating the same unproductive patterns and losing our joy and hope. At these times, one of the best ways to handle life’s problems is to reach out for added support. I would love to join you in your growth process to address the challenges you are experiencing and assist you in finding the ways you want to move forward. I offer you the respect and acceptance you deserve, sharing my warmth and life experience (including 10+ years living cross-culturally in Britain and Asia), without judgment. If you desire, I will incorporate faith and spiritual beliefs in your therapy.

A belief I carry into my work is "We are not robots! We are imperfect, complicated human beings." For you, this may look like fears of failure, struggling to get through daily tasks, lacking joy, feeling hopeless, or comparing yourself to others. Maybe you have tried SO HARD to create the life you want, but feel stuck or at your wits' end. Maybe you find yourself expecting too much, or not even knowing what you want! There is no simple switch to flip (because you aren't made of metal), but I am here to help you catch a break with your ADHD, anxiety, depression (or life) and create clarity, calm, and acceptance.

I am a licensed psychologist and I primarily work with an object relations approach of psychodynamic therapy. I am trained in and utilize EMDR and cognitive-behavioral and behavioral approaches, as well.

I also help individuals moving through life changes and those wanting to gain deeper insight into why they do the things they do.

Hi! I appreciate you taking the time to get to know me better as you explore your therapeutic journey. I'm a licensed social worker based in Ohio, and I hold a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Cincinnati, complemented by a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Kentucky. My career choice in behavioral and mental health was fueled by a deep-seated desire to enable people to feel truly heard, seen, and valued for who they are.

My choice to become a therapist is based on my personal experience with therapy as well as my belief that everyone has the potential to uncover and enjoy their authentic selves. I have spent time understanding the construct of identity as it relates to self-acceptance, self- worth, and self-actualization. These themes are not only core to the self, but also integral parts of our interpersonal relationships - partners, children, friends, and communities. Trauma, belief systems, and life experiences create a default mode of operation. Undoing these is a gentle process of vulnerability and self-trust.

Whether finding a purposeful path within your career, parenting, relationship, or within yourself… I’m here to encourage, challenge, and walk with you on this journey. The therapeutic bond is my highest priority because it is essential for lasting change. I provide individualized care and am here for you as my authentic self. I enjoy supporting and guiding every client to better understand their true selves, feelings, passions, and gifts. Most importantly, to believe they are enough. Just as they are.

Do you think that you might have depression, anxiety or PTSD? Maybe you can no longer tolerate what you are experiencing or it's impacting your daily life and others. Maybe you are nervous about coming to therapy for a variety of reasons. And, you know that you want to get back on your feet and experience lasting happiness. Perhaps you want to do this for yourself and maybe for others too.

Dan understands that the key to an effective and positive therapy experience is to first understand the individual. He further describes his role as a guide for those struggling with mental strife or unrest as they transition to a place of peace. He follows the adage by Irvin Yalom that “everything is grist for the therapy mill;” in that everyday events can help one to better understand circumstances and become empowered to manage the current situation.

I enjoy working with individuals, families, and couples who are seeking to better understand how their relationships and emotional reactions are shaped by their experiences. Together we will explore how we continue to be impacted by the past, examining ways to break out of old, ineffective patterns of communication/reactions and identify and build upon your individual and family strengths to improve your future.

I specialize in working with adults who are going through difficult times. Especially as it is related to addiction and hoarding issues. All of this will look different for each individual person. What I love about the work I do is that although I initially see people at very low points in their lives, as we work together they find courage, skills and resiliency to keep going and to make meaning of their lives.
