If you don't feel comfortable in traditional talk therapy, you may have a different learning style that deserves respect. There are four main learning styles: visual, auditory, reading/writing and kinesthetic, which requires physical interaction with the environment. If you are a visual person or need more engagement, then art therapy may be the best fit for you. Art Therapy is a method of self-expression that creates a safe and nonjudgmental space. The focus is on the process of creating and the meaning you bring to your art. No artistic talent is required. I offer telehealth (virtual) services to children, adolescents and adults.

Every person is a tapestry of experiences and identities. Your story is dynamic and important, and I'm here to listen, understand, and provide a safe space for you to process and explore. I provide individual and relationship therapy, focusing on strengths, authenticity, and resilience.

Have you experienced a relationship breakup or a death? Maybe you've been bullied as a kid? Did you grow up in a home that was dysfunctional? Typically these types of events cause a profound impact on us; depression, anxiety, job problems, etc. These losses/events could have happened yesterday or decades ago; they can still impact us. These are the types of issues I specialize in treating and helping people recover from. If I have just described events in your life I encourage you to give me a call at 614-785-1600 or check out my website at www.lindasix.com

BRAVE. You are brave for actively seeking help. HONEST. You are honest to get to a place to reach out. READY. You are ready for your life to be different. You are my ideal client.

We will identify and build a safe system of support and helpful coping skills for you to lean into when you need. Let's get started on your healing.

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'm driven by the belief that unfair societal structures often deprive individuals of the resources and well-being they deserve. Rooted in this conviction, my journey as a counselor is driven by a passion for assisting others in navigating life's complexities. I see therapy not just as a service but as a transformative journey accessible to all. I'm excited about the chance to connect with you, collaborate on your path to positive change, and work towards a more inclusive and supportive future.

I have over 15 years experience treating a range of issues including trauma and loss, depression, anxiety, and life transition. In particular, I specialize in all stages of grief/loss and offer treatment ranging from education/support to more directive treatment for prolonged or traumatic grief. Whether a loss has just occurred or you have been struggling for years, I can help you build a sense of peace and hope that your future will have beautiful days.

Life is not always easy. If you are struggling with feelings of anxiety or depression you are not alone. NIMH studies show that 43.5% of the US population will experience at least a mild anxiety disorder sometime in their lifetime. In my experience, I have seen that there are countless factors that contribute to our mental health. My focus is on the whole person. Together we will explore your biography as well as your biology. We will unpack your life story to discover a path to feeling healthy and strong again. I would consider it a privilege to listen.

Finding a counselor can be a difficult and frustrating process but it's worth the effort if you find the right match. My goal is to create an environment that you feel safe to share your story and the thoughts and feelings you are experiencing. I believe the counseling process is about YOU - at this point - on the timeline of your life's journey. My desire is to help you process and alleviate your emotional distress so you may discover a sense of clarity, freedom & renewed outlook on your life and relationships. www.restorecounsel.com

You might notice you're feeling more anxious and depressed and more quick to get angry or frustrated. Thankfully there are ways to cope!

Sometimes life feels unmanageable. We try to reach our goals; however, encounter numerous obstacles. I believe we all have the power to progress, change, and grow. Sometimes talking with a professional helps to clarify the next step in that journey. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, I will work with you to explore your feelings, identify challenges to your ongoing success, clearly define your goals, and develop a plan to move forward. My approach is holistic, open, honest, and direct. Clients will be welcomed with an empathetic and respectful environment where you will receive support and encouragement.

When life is too much, allow me the honor to help you come home to self and make life beautiful. I work with clients who genuinely want to find resilience, wholeness and beauty in life. My clients are diverse in race, ethnicity, spirituality, gender and sexual identity and nationality. Many tend to be caring, service-oriented people. Some are quite creative. Therapy and self-care help them to be stronger for themselves first, but also for those they love, in their career and for the world at large. "I have arrived. I am home." -Thich Nhat Hanh

Experiencing anxiety, worry, trauma, or depression? Feel a nagging sense of “not good enough?" Do you constantly feel like things are unraveling, feel tense, or have trouble making decisions? But you might also catch yourself thinking “others have it so much worse, who am I to complain?” Feelings of guilt creeping in when you think about setting boundaries or caring for yourself, thoughts of “I’m being selfish, just get over!” repeating in your mind. You are not alone, your struggles are valid, and support is available. I help people with anxiety, stress, trauma, and self-doubt learn find ways to heal and find calm.

Welcome! I am glad you’re here. My name is Amy Roberts Leyshon, and I have been practicing as a clinical social worker in the central Ohio area for more than a decade. I have worked in a variety of settings with a range of folks navigating life’s challenges, and have seen time and again that none of us are exempt from experiencing painful periods in life. There is hope in that as we are all connected through these experiences. As such, I specialize in working with people navigating transitions in life, marriage, divorce, expanding your family, grief and loss.

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.

Life can be tricky going at it alone. Therapy can be a great space to process traumas and emotions, relieve some challenges, and learn new coping skills. My approach to counseling is tailored to the individual needs of my clients and is grounded in a secure client-therapist relationship. I use interventions based on current empirically supported treatment options. I also offer a free in-person or online initial appointment.

Despite the suffering that is inherent in life, humans are highly resilient beings! This suffering may include being afflicted with mental illness. Part of this resilience is that we are social beings. Thus, it must come as no surprise that Counseling is a career and that it works! Counseling can work very well, for all communities of people if there is a true connection between clinician and client. In my career I have demonstrated the ability to build this connection with my clients, many of whom have made significant progress in treatment, regardless of their condition.

There are few professional relationships where trust, a commitment to openness, and creating a safe environment are more important than in the client/therapist dynamic. Finding the right therapist can be a difficult but essential feature in creating personal growth and fulfillment. It is my passionate belief that this working relationship between client and therapist is the foundation of successful treatment. I have over sixteen years of experience working with a broad and varied range of individuals struggling with a myriad of challenges, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, eating disorders, isolation, sexuality, gender identity, and relationship issues.
