Great to meet you!

Trying to survive the stress of raising kids? Feeling anxious, agitated, tired, overstimulated, or stressed? I primarily treat adults with ADHD, Autism & related anxiety, depression, trauma, overwhelm, & burnout. My clients often reach out for help due to difficulties at home, work, and in relationships. I help my clients see the strengths & skills they already possess to manage life's difficulties. Whether the goal is to learn new coping strategies, unpack a new diagnosis, regulate your nervous system, or learn ways to manage your energy as a limited resource, my goal is to meet you where you are and support you along the way!

My approach to therapy

I am a Clinical Social Worker (LISW-S) that has 15+ years experience supporting clients and providing clinical, administrative and training supervision for other therapists. I use a variety of tools, resources, and treatment strategies in my practice depending on what best fits the individual and their unique needs. I offer services in-person (Dayton, OH) or by video telehealth (Ohio). I am currently not accepting EAP's. Please note: I typically run on a waitlist so please contact me by email or message to inquire about availability and start the process to be added to the waitlist.

What you can expect from me

Spruce, my Certified Therapy Dog, loves to join session whenever possible! It can be anxiety provoking to reach out for help and open up to a stranger. I understand how that feels and will do my best to make you feel at ease. Please feel free to contact me by email with any questions. Looking forward to chatting with you soon!
