About me

I am an Ohio based mental health therapist with 14 years of professional work experience. I currently hold an LPCC-S license in the state of Ohio and have worked in a variety of mental health settings including school based, home based, community based, residential, and private practice and have specialized in treating survivors of human trafficking for the last 7 years. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, sexual based traumas, relationship issues, transitions into adulthood or parenting, personality disorders, codependency, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and non-traditional relationship dynamics.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together we will spend time getting to know each other and you will have opportunities to ask questions about the therapeutic process or myself and my approach to therapy first. We will then dive into the reasons you are seeking therapy and what you hope to gain from your sessions to help us create a plan for sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I utilize a mixture of CBT and DBT skills primarily as well as client centered and solution focused techniques to help my clients achieve the goals that they set for themselves.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal clients are individuals who are motivated to learn more about themselves, their feelings, their behaviors, and their relationships and implement changes that will help them achieve their view of their best version of themselves.

Really great at helping me navigate hard situations and even better at forcing me to take an honest look at where I’m actually at
