Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Xenia, OH

Daytime openings available! I have experience working with young children, adolescents, and their families for the last 10 years. I have a background in working with children and families who have experienced significant changes in their family dynamic, behavioral issues, anxiety/depression, children who have experienced trauma, and individuals with developmental delays and Autism. My past work has guided me in teaching others techniques to improve management of their impulses and behaviors impacting their day-to-day functioning, as well as address anxious distress and emotional difficulties.

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.

I am currently a LPC in Washington, DC. I specialize in using trauma focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to support client's process in finding the path to heal and build their emotional insight and awareness to lead a happier and healthy life.

I believe that everyone needs a safe place to talk through events and challenges in life. Using a strengths-based approach, I work with clients to identify goals and develop strategies to achieve those goals. I have significant experience working with children and teens, however, I enjoy working with individuals of all ages, adults and couples.

Hello! I have been counseling for 10 years. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, Ordained Minister and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have open availability M-W and even some counseling slots Sunday from 2-5pm. If you want counseling for PTSD or Trauma related problems, depressions or anxiety. I see people in Akron from my home in-person but the initial assessment is online.

Finding the “right fit” in therapy can be overwhelming and time-consuming. Healing is possible, and it shouldn't take a lifetime to get there! My primary focus is to create a safe and supportive space while promoting individual and/or posttraumatic growth. My goal is to empower you to share your stories and encourage healing from those experiences, by using a combination of deep listening, CBT/DBT, narrative exposure therapy and other evidence-based modalities for profound and lasting change.

I am an experienced therapist that specializes in trauma and the mind body connection to stressors in our lives. I have specific training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I have found in my career that we are all complicated with differing life experiences that have made us uniquely who we are. My goal as a therapist is to help you learn about yourself, create greater self awareness and to manage your emotions in a healthy way.

I believe in meeting an individual where they are at with the understanding that everybody has had a different life experience. I take a nonjudgmental stance and encourage those I work with to find humor and light, while also validating the hardships they've endured, giving them support and tools to overcome those challenges and emotionally heal. While my caseload is diverse in client needs, an emerging focus of my practice is supporting individuals and family of individuals with ADHD who are working on understanding how their neurodivergent brains have played a role in their lives, exploring both the victories and the struggles.

I enjoy working with clients who hated their last therapy experience, clients who feel defeated by their relationship with food and their body, and clients who are sick of anxiety ruling their life. I aim to support, challenge, and empower you to determine what your goals are and make meaningful progress toward them. Anyone seeking support to confront their unique difficulties is welcome here. I am well-versed in trauma-informed care and focus on being sensitive to cultural issues and marginalized groups. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I take pride in providing LGBTQ+-affirming care.
