Parenting Therapists in Hinckley, OH

I provide a depth-oriented therapy that is integrative, holistic and seeks to encompass mind, body and soul into the treatment process. I enjoy working with adults who are interested in developing greater self-understanding, exploring the root causes of their issues and looking to live richer and more meaningful lives.

Some reasons to consider psychotherapy for your child or family member include: sudden changes in behavior, increased moodiness, an increase in temper tantrums, difficulty getting along with friends, physical or sexual abuse, loss of a loved one, divorce, excessive crying or sadness, increased worrying, aggression, questions about sexuality, self-injurious behavior or thoughts of suicide, trauma, illness, and anger. Parents and caregivers know their child best. If you think something is off, then seek a consultation. I will listen intently and conduct a detailed interview to determine if services are appropriate. If they are, then together we will set goals and develop a treatment plan.
