Therapists in Kettering, OH

I am an LISW-S based in Ohio, bringing over 4 years of experience to my practice. I earned my master in social work from The Ohio State University, and I am deeply committed to supporting individuals on their unique journeys.

I first give you so much credit for your courage and steps towards healing. I am here to support you along your journey. I work with clients of all walks of life, though I specialize in sexual abuse and traumatic events. Healing is possible, and there is a light on the other side. While it may be difficult to trust, together we can work towards your goals and a life liberated from the pain of the past, where you can embrace the future. If you are struggling, the first step is knowing you are worthy of support, and seeking it out. I would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey!

Although psychological assessment can seem overwhelming, it is designed to help you and your loved one understand and find the correct treatment for their current symptoms. Similar to medical tests that are done to understand a patient’s physical symptoms, psychological assessment uses tests, questionnaires, and clinical observation to understand a person’s behavior, personality, cognitive and social-emotional functioning. It is likely that you are looking to gather information about yourself or your loved one in order to clarify and find a way to help them. Psychological assessment is a way to find answers to plan for treatment.

I provide comprehensive, caring and professional therapuetic services with a specialization in mental health, trauma, adoption issues as well as individual/family counseling. My services enhance self esteem while providing coping skills and fostering resilience and empowerment to make positive change.

This is your journey, and as your therapist, I can be a helpful guide along the way. Sometimes folks are afraid of "starting over with a new therapist" or "having to rehash the past". It's totally valid to be nervous about opening up to a new person, practically a stranger, but the good news is, we can start right where you are! I have found my "home" as a therapist with the intervention called EMDR, but have witnessed the benefits of other interventions I am trained in including: CBT, DBT, CAMS, and Expressive Arts Therapies. Suicidal ideation, depression, and trauma (including surviving abuse) are my specialties.

Actualmente aceptando nuevos clientes (tardes y fines de semana). Sé que encontrar al terapeuta adecuado puede ser abrumador, pero permíteme ayudarte en este proceso. Creo que la conexión y colaboración con tu terapeuta es una pieza importante en una buena alianza terapéutica. Para mí es importante que se sienta escuchado y que pueda trabajar hacia sus objetivos personales. Soy un terapeuta bilingüe (inglés/español) que ofrece teleterapia a adolescentes y adultos.

If you or your child are suffering from an OCD or an anxiety disorder you are not alone. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness and yet most sufferers do not have access effective treatment. The good news is that if you or your loved one is troubled with unwanted thoughts or worries, physical symptoms due to anxiety, perfectionism, phobias, health fears, or any other anxiety there is help. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and more specifically exposure therapy has repeatedly shown to be the most effective approach for defeating anxiety and OCD.

Do you feel stuck, and can't get past something that's holding you back? Do you have panic attacks, flashbacks, or do you feel 'keyed up' much of the time? Are you suffering from the effects of trauma? Do you often feel anxious, and for no reason? Have your relationships suffered because of these symptoms? If so, I can help you. In fact, due to the treatment I offer, many of my clients who suffer from the effects of trauma require less than 10 sessions to experience significant symptom reduction.

My primary goal is to help you feel comfortable, secure and heard. After the first session my clients will feel hopeful that their goals, for a more satisfying life, are obtainable. I approach my clients with unconditional positive regard, that translates for me as seeing the utmost value in every single one of my clients. I am honored to be a part of your healing journey. I am devoted to finding the best way to support your emotional healing. I encourage my clients to apply the skills learned in therapy, and do periodic check-ins to gauge progress in reaching their goals. I'm located in Polaris near Polaris mall.

Are you hurting so much that you're wondering if living is really worth all this pain? It hurts so bad that it feels physical; you can feel it in your gut. You don't let those closest to you know what's going on because no one gets it; no one can help. Sometimes you feel completely out of place, like you don't belong here. Everything hurts so much and you can't stand it anymore. You keep looking for ways to take it all away. You don't deserve to hurt like this anymore. And you don't have to. It's time to take control of your emotions so your emotions stop controlling you.
