I blend relational and attachment-focused methods, using EMDR, DBT, somatic therapy, and Internal Family Systems.
Do you often feel misunderstood and isolated, navigating through constant states of fight, flight, freeze, and fawn? Perhaps you struggle with regulating emotions, find yourself overwhelmed, and resort to self-harming behaviors or other ways to numb intense emotional pain. Chronic suicidal ideation may also be part of your experience. Do you deeply care about others, sometimes to your own detriment, and yearn for the ability to set and maintain boundaries? Building healthy relationships might be a challenge, leaving you feeling like an outsider. Relentless shame and guilt may be weighing heavily on you.

I am licensed by the Ohio CSWMFT Board and am a Certified EMDR Therapist.
I am a Certified EMDR Therapist who uses EMDR and other proven techniques, to help clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, chronic illness, chronic pain, medical trauma, difficult childhood experiences, attachment issues, and dissociation. EMDR based therapy for chronic pain is effective in many cases of low back pain, migraine, fibromyalgia, neuropathy, whiplash, irritable bowel syndrome, and sexual pain disorder. Other types of pain may respond favorably, as well. As a result of our work together you should have a clearer view of yourself, feel calmer, more positive, be able to make better life decisions, and experience improved quality of life.

Technology enables therapists to provide effective treatment including EMDR, which has been found just as effective as in-person sessions for PTSD, anxiety, depression and other concerns.
Feeling Lost? Stuck? Anxious? Empty? Disconnected? Why struggle any longer? You may be working harder than necessary, fighting against patterns of feelings, thoughts & behaviors that developed over the years and no longer serve you. I work with clients healing from symptoms of PTSD, CPTSD, Dissociation, Attachment wounds, Depression, Anxiety & Eating Disorders. I am primarily a relational, attachment-based therapist and my training allows me to provide a holistic approach to treatment utilizing EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), IFS, DBT skills, Somatic Psychotherapy techniques and Mindfulness practices.

I use the interventions of CBT, DBT and EMDR to help clients heal.
I am accepting new clients and can schedule you within 1-2 weeks of contact. I have been working as a therapist with children, adolescents and adults for over 10 years. I specialize in seeing children, teens and young adults. My ideal client would be someone who is looking for help with their anxiety, depression, codependency and attachment patterns, unhealthy relationship patterns and/ or want to learn about why they continue to repeat habits and behaviors they don't want to do anymore. I like to help my client understand themselves deeper and get to the root of depression or anxiety/overthinking symptoms.

I do regular counseling including cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy and supportive therapy along with brain based therapies such as neurofeedback and EMDR.
Hi! Welcome. I enjoy learning about my clients and helping them figure out how to be happier and more productive. My focus is treating trauma, anxiety, addictions, depression or ADD. Many people have a combination of these issues. Don't think you are alone, most people have something going on. I know it is sometimes uncomfortable to contact a therapist especially if you have a history of trauma. I have been told I am easy to talk to. I listen to my clients and actively work on approaches to help. I take most insurance panels including Medicaid to help with the cost of therapy.

When anxiety overtakes your life, it can feel impossible to regain control. That anxiety may be rooted in a traumatic event, a major life transition, or the luck of the genetic lottery. Individual therapy is a helpful way to explore what you're experiencing, learn new strategies for coping, and find healthy control in your life. Since 2008, I've worked in the mental health field with a broad range of individuals and symptoms. Now I want to distill my experience and training to focus on helping individuals with trauma-related symptoms, OCD, and anxiety. I offer a unique blend of EMDR, IFS-informed therapy, ERP, CBT, and mindfulness.

I am certified in EMDR and utilize different therapy approaches (Narrative, Somatic, Gestalt, Existential, REBT) to help clients heal.
I serve people who are seeking to heal the ways that trauma has impacted their partnering, parenting, and professionalism. I work with clients to break generational and systemic trauma impacts, to teach what is "normal" in healthy relationships, how to not overreact, and how to stop being "numb" or "overly emotional" so that clients can learn to enjoy life (and believe they are worth having a good life).

My clients are individuals and couples who find themselves at a point in life where they may feel "stuck," or saying, "I've tried everything and nothing is working." Regardless of one's age, the feeling of being stuck is a common and universal experience. Entering into therapy is not a way to fix things, but rather a time to discover new opportunities for change and growth. It is through those times that the feeling of being stuck can evolve into positive movement and renewed energy.

You have probably had this thought come across your mind more frequently. “At this point, I need to get a therapist, because this is too much”. Well, thankfully I am glad you decided that at this point, you are ready to take the next steps to your healing journey. My name is Paris and I am a dependently licensed professional counselor in both Ohio and Texas. I have had a passion for mental health ever since I had my own personal experience and journey with it as a preteen, and that fire hasn’t died down yet. I truly believe therapy is a place not only to evolve, elevate, and heal from past hurt and traumas, but find peace.
