Weekly in-person art therapy group for adults with childhood trauma or difficult parents. New members welcome. The weight of unresolved trauma can manifest as anxiety, depression, boundary challenges, difficulty prioritizing yourself, and increased stress. Art therapy allows you to approach your experiences from a different perspective, facilitating connections between the visual and emotional centers of your brain where trauma resides.

My ideal therapy clients are caretakers, helping professionals, and people pleasers. Most of them are middle-aged women who have a history that followed them from childhood. They are thinkers, survivors. But they get to a point where they want to go further than just cope with symptoms like guilt, shame, depression, perfectionism, negative self-talk, and self-criticism. They often also experience physical symptoms migraines, stomach aches, nausea, hives, and autoimmune disorders. The stuff that the doctor says, “you’re fine.” They hit an impossible wall and must make big changes, heal old wounds, and finally trust themselves.
We believe group treatment helps people connect with others and build lifelong skills. At Charlie Health, our curated groups include CBT Groups, CFT Groups, DBT Skills Groups, ACT Groups, Experiential Therapy Groups, Processing Groups, Trauma Groups, and more.

Do you have a history of relational trauma that's making your life unlivable? Have traditional therapies left you feeling worse? If you have overwhelming symptoms (dissociation, self-harm, suicidality, addiction, panic) or intense diagnoses (PTSD, Complex PTSD, DID, or BPD) and past therapy hasn't helped, I offer a radical new take. It helps address the root causes of your struggles, not just treat the symptoms. It involves deeper, richer work that offers real and lasting change.

Congratulations on taking the first step in the journey to heal. Seeking out therapy is an act of self-love and takes courage and commitment. If you are someone who has been seeking healing, I hope you will take a look at my profile and reach out if you feel called to do so. I work with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed and are seeking answers to life's deeper questions. I am a believer in the power of stories. The stories we were told when we were younger often follow us into adulthood and leave us feeling confused and helpless. I want to help you take back your power by reclaiming your story and beginning to write a new one.

It’s fine. I'm fine. Everything is FINE! How many times have we said that to ourselves or others and deep down we know it isn't true? Sometimes it’s just easier to tell ourselves that rather than get to the root of the problem. Are you a highly functioning person who feels more anxious, unsettled, alone, frustrated, or empty than you’d like? Ongoing optimism, a growth-mindset, acceptance, and a nonjudgmental space help my clients move forward. I have previously worked with a diverse range of clients at Ohio Wesleyan University, in various public and private education roles, and in several corporate positions.

Clients often tell me, they were told: there is nothing more that can be done...for their poor gait, pain levels, anxiety and depression even mood swings. Somatic education and therapy is another option. Judy will guide you to greater self awareness so you can notice your unconscious holding patterns and let them go. Once helpful, these old patterns may be holding you back. The use of gentle movement and touch is freeing and releases the deep seated and often unconscious patterns of pain and trauma. Judy will help you find a way around it...with gentleness and fun.
This group focuses on Mental and Physical health. The individuals will learn to push past barriers created by life adversities using physical health tools gained through each session. The participants will also engage in mental health group therapy sessions with various themed topics to address many challenges experienced on a daily basis.

When you're with me, trust that it will be a HIPAA compliant, safe and secure experience, with optional, scheduled office appointments upon request. Who is a typical client and what brings him or her to seek help? You are an individual who may have a busy schedule, a family, or perhaps a physical or psychological mobility issue. You are someone who may have no previous exposure to therapy, counseling or consultation services, or someone who is a seasoned traveler. Whatever the reason, your comprehensive needs are my professional priority.
