Therapists in Columbus, OH

Each and every one of us has a unique story that shapes who we are as individuals. This story can be a mixture of positive and negative experiences, joyful and painful, the good and the bad. How we experience this story, how we share it with others, and how it impacts us are all pieces to an intricate puzzle of who we are and how we live our lives. My primary goal as a therapist is to create a non-judgmental environment filled with acceptance and compassion in the hopes that, by doing so, clients will feel comfortable sharing their stories, learn to embrace their authentic selves, and grow into the person they wish to be.

Sometimes, life can leave us feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck, and we’re often unsure of how to manage it, or even harder, make a change. Adjusting to the unexpected, dealing with transitions, and trying to show up for ourselves while juggling relationships, work, family and responsibilities are all things that can lead to this. While coming to this realization is difficult, taking the next step by reaching out for help can feel like the most overwhelming task. I am here to offer a non-judgmental, supportive, and compassionate space to build fulfillment in your life and help you achieve the growth you’ve been looking for.

I believe that each client is unique and therefore so must be their treatment. I am dedicated to assisting clients in feeling rooted, secure, and fulfilled in their lives. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in community mental health and private practice settings. In these settings, I have guided clients in managing and alleviating symptoms of behavioral and mental health concerns including but not limited to anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, stress, self-injurious behaviors, and interpersonal conflict.

I am currently accepting new clients via Telehealth due to COVID-19 (video conferencing or telephone). I provide a safe and confidential environment for healing; either in an individual or group setting. "We don't control what happens in life but we can challenge ourselves to control how we respond to life. That is our true strength and power". My experience in counseling those who struggle with life's overwhelming issues has allowed me to see the miracle that happens when they unlock their inner values and strength. I welcome you to join me in your journey to uncover, discover and recover the real you that was lost.

I received my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Bowling Green State University and Masters of Social Work degree from The Ohio State University. I have experience working in community mental health, acute care and foster care settings while treating a wide variety of diagnoses including Anxiety, Depression, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Postpartum Depression. I also have experience working with clients who maybe struggling with stress, trauma, career issues, life transitions and self-esteem issues.

Accepting new clients! I help people overcome difficulty and use it to grow and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. Sometimes we start by treating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, career, or LGBTQ+ and other identity issues, and over time turn to deeper issues about the life you want to create, your identity, and your values. I’m a humanistic counselor, which means I’ll never tell you what to do and I’ll always empower you to make the choice that’s best for you. I use a collaborative, gentle approach that helps you connect with your intuitive sense of self and your intrinsic motivation to grow and do difficult things.

My hope in connecting with you is to help you absorb your own insight on helpful and unhelpful behaviors and beliefs that could be keeping you stuck. Each person's experiences help to shape who they are, and my intention is to make sure that you can use the power of your experiences to move forward and to leave old narratives no longer serving you behind.

They say the only constant in life is change. But change is hard! We as humans tend to feel comfort in predictability and routine, and change (especially when sudden, unexpected, and/or tragic) inherently challenges us to sit with discomfort. Even deliberate and "happy" changes like starting a new career, getting married, journeying through gender transition, or beginning a sober lifestyle can still cause a myriad of complicated emotions as you adjust to your new life. Finding meaning in those changes while learning skills to manage the added stress is an empowering, healing, and worthwhile endeavor.
