Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Dayton, Ohio. I received my Masters of Science in Education and Health Sciences from the University of Dayton in 2013.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I have certifications as a Behavioral Health Consultant and Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional.

My approach to therapy

I have a holistic approach to counseling and am well versed in treating anxiety, depression, trauma and physical health concerns which impact mental wellness. Additionally I specialize in issues of sex and sexuality. Essentially, I'm comfortable discussing anything relating to health, sexuality, and sexual health. I engage in talk therapy from a strengths based perspective and focus on compassion, somatics, health, and egalitarian/social justice principles.

What you can expect from me

I strive to create an environment where you can safely explore what you wish to get from therapy. I collaborate with you to customize your experience, so that we can identify what you want to unpack or work toward. The goals we set are up to you, as I believe you are the expert of yourself. If you are unsure (no worries!) we will work together to figure it out. I have loads of tools and information to help you determine what is right for you.
