Feminist Therapists in Columbus, OH

Times of chaos, confusion, and challenge are opportunities for a shift in perspective and meaningful, long-lasting change. We don't often have a choice about challenging circumstances but we do get to choose how we respond and whether or not we grow stronger from the experience! Using a blend of traditional "talk therapy" and alternative therapies (such as mindfulness, somatic awareness, and creative expression) we collaborate for my clients' restoration of their natural wellness in mind, body, and spirit. I can help you become your best self!

Are you a former gifted kid struggling to fulfill your potential due to debilitating perfectionism? Have therapists told you you're "so self-aware" or that you've "graduated" therapy because they've tried all they know, but you're still not feeling any better? You probably already know your attachment style, you know all the basic coping skills, you know your "problems" inside and out...but somehow this hasn't helped you make any meaningful progress. You're ready to finally alchemize emotions that have been stagnant for too long, and you need someone who will be in the trenches with you, not just tell you what to do.

Hi, I'm Tory! I've been a mental health professional for several years and have experience working with people from a broad range of backgrounds, cultures, ages, and presenting concerns. I am especially passionate about, and skilled in, working with young adults and folks in the LGBTQIA+ and polyamorous/ENM communities (both of which are identities I hold myself). I strive to show up in session as my authentic self, and bring curiosity, kindness, and humor to my work. I am endlessly grateful to have the privilege of walking alongside clients every day, and to be a part of supporting their healing and growth.

Was your childhood often painful, difficult, or scary? Did you feel alone, invisible, or unloved? Maybe the past is just a blank. Or are you going through a difficult time in your life, frozen with worry, grieving, or overwhelmed and exhausted? Do you need to leave a situation that feels abusive or break a toxic pattern? Repeated disturbing memories, physical sensations, thoughts, or dreams can be signs of trauma. It may feel hard to be your real self, or that you over-react and can't stop. Your feelings might be extreme. Whether these are new or recurring symptoms, you can heal and lead a healthier and more authentic life.

I work with all individuals, across the age range, and have a passion for working with those in LGBTQIA+ community. I provide evidence-based care, always incorporating the latest research findings, and do so in a helpful, compassionate, and supportive environment. It would be my privilege to work with you.

Welcome! Choosing a therapist is a thoughtful experience, and I hope to offer you comfort in sharing a bit about my background. I have been practicing for 12 years and have owned my own therapy practice since 2020 - Coral Canopy Counseling. I have experience working with individuals with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma. Outside of my clinical work, I am passionate about advocacy and creating change systemically-including social injustices involving racial & economic inequality, and the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community. Being a therapist is understanding that no one exists in a vacuum and that environment impacts mental health.

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.

Are you struggling with anxious or ruminating thoughts, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, lethargy, lack of motivation, or isolation, which may have been manageable previously but now is an issue? You may struggle with creating a support network or having boundaries with others. Are there unresolved trauma issues that you may not be acknowledging? You are looking for insight & help with your active symptoms, like managing your anxiety, ruminating thoughts, or negative self-talk. You would like to develop coping skills that are easily applicable to your daily routine while increasing the quality of your supports.

Life can be unrelenting with a multitude of demands, and it can be hard to manage when you’re feeling out of balance in several areas. You may find yourself reaching for a sense of control through eating, weight, isolation, self-medicating, over-scheduling, perfectionism and more, leading to guilt and shame, creating a never-ending cycle of struggle. Moving toward your values, you will find balance, healing, and growth. I believe therapy can be a safe place to make connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that have been feared and avoided. I will help you to become empowered to shape your story and live authentically.

We all experience pain--it’s normal. A lot can unsettle us as humans--feelings of anxiety and depression; career and identity development; making meaning of unpleasant thoughts, feelings, sensations, and experiences; and navigating the balance between chaos and control, freedom and responsibility, connectedness and differentiation, action and paralysis. It's no wonder life feels difficult so much of the time! I'm passionate about helping people become more grounded and accepting of themselves as they grapple with these hazards of being human.

We all carry around so much. From the expectations of daily life, to difficult experiences from our past that leave us feeling stuck, to worries about what the future holds. Sometimes carrying all this around is more than a one person job. We all have times in our life that we need someone to help us unburden and lighten the load from our past experiences in order to be our healthiest self. Let's work together to feel lighter and less burdened by stress, grief, loss, trauma, anxiety, and depression while we discover what wellness can look like in your life.
