Therapists in Pickerington, OH

I specialize in treating generalized anxiety, OCD, depression, complex trauma and PTSD, substance and alcohol use, couples & marital issues, grief, major life transitions, vocational/career discernment, and a variety of everyday and lifelong existential questions and realities we all face. Are you depressed and anxious about many things, with sleepless nights and moments of quiet desperation, helplessness, hopelessness, and worthlessness? Are you searching for answers to questions both known and unknown, looking to share with someone who can validate the reality of suffering in your life & help you find ways to navigate?

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.

Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in the State of Ohio. I also hold my Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor License. I earned my B.A. from Youngstown State University in Psychology and my MSE.d. from Youngstown State University in Community and Mental Health Counseling with a special focus in Addictions Treatment. My specialty is in treating individuals with depression and anxiety disorders, as well as substance use disorders, and trauma. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy.

I believe that knowing the truth about ourselves, others, and the world can free us to live fully and be our healthiest selves. Through an open and trusting relationship with a therapist, people can feel safe to be real, be known, and be understood. From that place of understanding we can work together to help you align the truth with your life to reach your goals. I approach clients with intentionality and empathy and view us as a team, and I believe that together we can make progress towards any goal.

Each of us have unique stories which include brokenness, anger, and anguish. These stories can cause so many to feel isolated, unheard, and utterly broken. During the counseling process, my goal is to help you find hope, while creating life long change. I want you to feel safe, heard, and begin healing. The story is never about finding the perfect ending, instead it's about creating a new story with resilience, passion, and hope. It is my passion to walk along side my clients to bring healing by focusing on your needs, as the client. My goal is to only be a guide in your process of healing by using a holistic approach.

I am passionate about trauma, depression, anxiety, LGBQT concerns, personality disorders, and neurodivergence. An ideal client is an individual who has a growth mindset and explores their thoughts and feelings and how they impact their behavior. They may not understand how those thoughts derived from past experiences, but they are willing to open old wounds given the right tools. They feel safe and secure and want to heal through hard work and determination.

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.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in the State of Ohio. I received my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Franciscan University of Steubenville in 1998. I have 23 years of experience working in both inpatient and outpatient settings, serving a multitude of clients with moderate to severe mental health diagnoses. I will use my experience and bring compassion to help my clients who may be struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, PTSD, grief and loss, and stress management just to name a few. Once you decide to begin counseling, we will schedule your initial assessment.

My ideal client is an individual who is open to working as a team and benefiting from a therapeutic relationship in which honesty, accountability, and empathy are paramount. While a client’s concerns are unique and personal, there is nothing they cannot overcome through effective therapeutic interventions and a highly-trained and relatable clinician.

Are you suffering from trauma & finding it holding you back from living your true, authentic life? From my experience, I can see how challenging a Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis can be on a person, & working with someone open to learning new skills to manage it better can be very rewarding! I enjoy working with people who are suffering from anxiety or depressive disorder as I have seen the progress my clients have made in those areas & I love to watch them start to live a more satisfying life. I am here to assist with any life transitions, relationship issues, grief, or OCD/phobias that are preventing you from your goals.

Are you seeking treatment to enrich your life? Are you willing to explore your past, present, and future to gain insight into your illnesses? Are you willing to do the work with me guiding you?

I have served those with Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Family Issues, etc. My ideal client is motivated to roll up their sleeves and engage in the therapeutic process. They have an open mind and can practice effective coping skills to improve their overall functioning and quality of life. They can challenge themselves to be vulnerable and practice accountability while processing their problematic thinking patterns and behaviors in a safe and non-judgmental environment. They wish to engage in therapy because they realize that they need to make a change and are willing to take a leap of faith to make it happen.

There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.

My name is Lisa and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. You might also call me an encourager, connector, and lifelong learner. I have worked with clients of all ages, but am primarily serving adults 18 and older at this time. I have a real passion for joining others on their journeys to defining a meaningful life and/or in making meaning of their personal experiences. I work with clients experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and life adjustments and transitions. My clinical and lived experience has taught me that people want to be seen, heard, and valued.

I am licensed in Ohio with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
