(she/her)
Hello, and welcome. I am an Independently Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Ohio, with additional licenses in Indiana and Washington. I received my Master’s degree from Case Western Reserve University and my Doctorate from Union Institute and University. Since 2018, I have dedicated my private practice to helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, Bipolar Disorder and adjusting to various life circumstances by guiding them toward healthier, more fulfilling lives. I also work with couples, supporting them in rebuilding trust, strengthening communication, and developing the tools they need to nurture lasting, meaningful relationships.
In our first session, we’ll spend some time getting to know each other through a brief assessment. This allows me to better understand your current struggles, the strengths you already bring to the table, and the goals you’d like to work toward. Most clients leave that first meeting with a clearer picture of their own strengths and at least one practical tool or exercise to begin using right away.
One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is being a compassionate listener. I ask thoughtful questions that invite reflection and often lead to meaningful “ah-ha” moments for my clients. I strive to create a supportive and accepting space where individuals feel encouraged to explore their choices and empowered to move toward the life they want to build.
I enjoy working with individuals who are open to being vulnerable and ready to explore new skills. My ideal clients are those who are willing to lean into the process, try out new tools, and take meaningful steps toward growth and healing. If you’re open to being vulnerable and willing to practice new skills, I’d love to support you on your journey. Therapy is a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out—you just need a willingness to show up, explore, and take steps toward growth at your own pace.

Dr. Bennett is amazing. She is authentic, honest, caring, warm, and helps to guide the patient to solutions or insights. By far the best therapist I have ever had.

Dr Bennett listens well and hears what isn’t said. She has solutions but also encourages me to find them. She is supportive and comforting.
