Trauma or life circumstances can disrupt multiple facets of life (e.g. career, family, education, self-esteem, self-identity, or a sense of security) which may be overwhelming and increases the risk of isolation, depression, anxiety, grief as well as detachment from the community. The space of therapy is a place for you to reconnect with a sense of self, happiness, feel safe, hope, and be comfortable in a place where all are accepted. I am also a Grief Recovery Method Specialist (call for more information). I work with Medical Students at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Are you a young adult woman experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and even trauma? Self-discovery and creating/finding identity are goals I work best with. In my most recent job, I have found that domestic violence survivors and women who experience issues specific to being a woman have piqued my interest. As a therapist, the most rewarding thing is to guide women toward embracing themselves for who they are, heal past wounds, and empower them to live fully and authentically. I believe I have been given a purpose in this world to serve others, and that's what I was created to do.

I help people take charge of their lives. Emotions can be very powerful. They help form your self-esteem, and ultimately enable you to move forward with your goals or prevent you from achieving them.

When life gets dark, it is hard to see the light. All it takes is one step to begin to find your way again. At the core of my practice is support, trust, and the inherent worthiness of each individual. I walk beside you offering my encouragement, support and knowledge on your path to healing, connection and wellness. Though I work with many of life’s difficulties my focus is generally in working with adults who have trouble with stress, anxiety, fear, rejection, the feeling of "not enough", depression, sadness, life transitions, self-esteem, understanding and being understood.

My passion as a therapist is to help people heal emotionally and physically using an integrative and person -centered approach. What I bring to the client is an empathetic and a “down to earth” approach. One of my goals is to help clients be motivated and see tangible results within themselves. I am dedicated to walking with my clients on their journey to increase healthy thinking and promote a sense of improved wellbeing. My target audience are teens, adults 18+, and the aging community whom are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, adverse negative experiences, childhood trauma, parenting issues, and self-esteem issues.

I specialize in evidenced-based treatments for children, adolescents, and families. My approach to treatment is heavily skill-based, goal oriented, and highly collaborative. I view the parents/guardians as experts in their child, and feel that together, we form a unified team. My practice includes: Anxiety, Adjustment Disorders, Depression, OCD, Parent-Child Conflict/Skill Development, Phobias, and Self-Esteem Enhancement. I also specialize in working with the siblings of children with special needs, including developmental disabilities and special healthcare needs, to address family dynamics and coping skills development.

Our sessions will take place in a nurturing environment, led by your unique circumstances and goals. We’ll partner together on your journey of self-exploration and renewal, and celebrate the beauty you hold within. Honoring your strengths, you'll discover strategies to become better equipped to handle stressors and shape a balanced and meaningful life.

Then allow me to come along beside you to help you transition into your "new normal" and to help coach and encourage you into a new way of thinking and living! I offer an eclectic, client-centered, holistic approach while addressing the "symptoms/behaviors" and never criticizing the person as a unique human being.

Do you feel overwhelmed as you navigate adulthood? I am a dedicated Licensed Independent Social Worker who has helped many individuals in therapeutic settings to manage their mental health, explore their identity, and increase their self-esteem. Many adults are still adjusting to a post-pandemic world and are experiencing depression, anxiety, and loneliness. I enjoy working with adults of all ages and specialize in helping young adults with unique challenges – entering college, launching a career, financial concerns, relationships, etc.

My ideal client knows what they want and is ready and determined to get it. The client works hard and wants to better their self mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. The client wants to make a change, and is tired of doing life dealing with the same struggles. They want better for their family and self by willingly doing the work to become whole and healthy. I love working collaboratively with individuals to help find solutions that will increase their life fulfillment. I provide a safe, judgement free zone that allows clients to be themselves and feel free to express their innermost feelings.

There is a difference between temporarily feeling better and actually getting better. This statement serves as the foundation of my work with clients and families. In my experience, collaborative and compassion-focused care combined with research-supported interventions leads to lasting positive outcomes in therapy. I am a clinical psychologist with extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I am 1 of 2 known psychologists in Ohio certified to provide Maudsley Family Based Treatment by the Training Institute for Child & Adolescent Eating Disorders.
