Great to meet you!

Hello,

I am licensed in Ohio and West Virginia with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma, abuse, & depression. I also have experience working with coping with life changes. 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.

My approach to therapy

I believe we are all on a journey to becoming our best selves. Life presents many challenges along that way. Learning new evidenced-based approaches provides us the opportunities to navigate those challenges and heal from our woundedness.

What you can expect from me

We get best at what we practice most. I will provide between session goals and interventions that will maximize outcomes.
