Adults Therapists in Blue Ash, OH

Depression. Trauma. Anxiety. Grief. Let’s face it – life is hard. I know this firsthand. But you don’t have to do it alone. I focus on adults, adolescents, & couples and specialize in trauma, depression, grief, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions such as parenting, career, or divorce. My career started in business. I then decided to spend my life connecting with and helping others, so I returned to school. My goal is to help you rediscover your strength, confidence, & happiness, and to guide you towards a more fulfilling life. I want to empower you to be the best version of yourself. If this resonates with you, let's talk.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, and substance abuse disorders. Feeling anxious or sad can be scary and lead to feelings of confusion, loneliness, fear, and shame. I can help you develop and implement healthy coping skills and boundaries which will allow you to feel more in control of your life. It is important to recognize that a patient’s family may also need support and assistance throughout this process. With my guidance, the family will develop an understanding of the patient’s symptoms and gain skills that will lead to healthy boundaries and support for the patient.

I view counseling as a problem-solving process where we work initially on finding ways to help you feel you are no longer drowning emotionally, then begin a process of improving your awareness of the negative patterns of behavior in your life, and the thoughts and emotions that perpetuate those negative cycles. Once you feel more like you are on solid ground, we work to help you become more aware of the decision points when you can choose to stop from repeating old maladaptive behaviors and begin to develop new more positive behaviors which can help you find a path to a life with which you can be more satisfied.

Do you ever feel like it is you against the world? Or wonder if there is anyone “in your corner”? This world can throw all sorts of difficulties our way and sometimes it is helpful to know you are not alone in the fight. Those difficulties may present with symptoms of depression, anxiety, fear, worthlessness, addiction, trauma, negative thinking, or loss. I understand how tempting it is to give up the fight, but I also know the joyful victory that comes with healing and freedom. I am holding hope for you even if, right now, you are not able to hope for yourself. I believe there is abundant life and wholeness for YOU!

You or your adolescent may be experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional sensitivity, relationship issues or difficulty focusing. I have extensive experience as a doctoral-level cognitive behavioral therapist and I believe helping individuals understand how their thoughts and behaviors contribute to intense emotions is key to mental health. Challenging unhealthy thinking and learning how to think differently can be very effective. I teach specific and diverse skills and coach people on using them in real-life situations. I often share behavioral management techniques to help clients gain control over repetitive or compulsive actions and reduce anxiety in feared situations.

I’ve often likened “good therapy” to a “good massage”. You enter feeling tense and uncertain with the hope that you'll leave feeling more centered and able to take on what’s next. At times, you may need a gentle and compassionate approach; other times, you may need deeper work to really start the healing process. My primary goal in our work together is to utilize my 21 years of direct clinical experience and 10 years of experience as a clinical supervisor to improve your overall life satisfaction.

You can learn to respond thoughtfully to situations rather than just reacting. We can work together to develop your ability to be in the moment and enjoy life.
