I am a licensed psychologist providing individual, couples, and group psychotherapy to adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. I work with women and men from diverse backgrounds and have particular experience in working with men's issues and LGBTQ+ clients. I welcome clients of all sexual orientations and backgrounds and provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment for exploring the challenges and changes that bring people to therapy.
I draw from an integrative approach to psychotherapy that weaves together cognitive-behavioral, insight-oriented, interpersonal, and pro-feminist empowerment approaches. My office is physically based in Cincinnati, but I also offer virtual/tele-therapy sessions to Ohio residents in other cities and/or into other states that are part of PSYPACT.
I appreciate and understand the socio-political forces (e.g., oppression, ageism, racism, sexism, homophobia) that can negatively impact an individual and exacerbate the psychological difficulties they're experiencing. I work to underscore how these forces may impact them and encourage empowerment to lessen any sense of powerlessness.

Groups
Gay/Bi Married Men's Support Group
This is a 90-minute bi-weekly professionally facilitated support group for men who are married heterosexually, but are coming out to themselves and others in terms of their gay or bisexual identities. This is an important resource to sort out the following concerns: relationship issues, decision/option exploration, shame, guilt, fear/anxiety, and depression, in order to achieve a greater sense of direction and instillation of hope in one's life and to attain support of others who are experiencing and tackling similar struggles.
