Anxiety Therapists in Kirtland, OH

Hello, I’m so glad you’re here. Many of us experience struggles at some point that feel overwhelming. I believe everyone deserves support to help them on their journey to feeling their best! Working on concerns/talking about feelings is not everyone’s favorite thing to do. Therapy can be difficult but it can also be extremely helpful. It’s not always like the movies. You don’t have to lay on the couch, go through every moment of your life, and always “tell me how you feel”. I DO want you to be comfortable, talk about what is important to you in order to meet your goals of therapy, and I am always open to hearing about your feelings!

Anxiety can be powerful and confusing, especially when so much in the world is beyond our control. When the things we do in response to stress, grief, loss, and trauma become harmful, the light at the end of the tunnel becomes more distant. I believe in the power of every person to find the strength and ability to move through life’s challenges, and the value of recognizing what is ours to control and what is not. I encourage being careful, not fearful, and I will work with you to establish hope and faith in yourself and the world, while navigating the nuances of various mood and emotional issues.
