Hi, I'm Brandi and I'm excited to help individuals and couples improve communication and understanding in their relationships. Our potential to be well, cope with stress, be ourselves, and connect with others are continually linked and impacted by our relationships. Relationships are so important that they require consistent attention and effort for success. As a practical person and therapist, I offer strength-based brief therapy to give your relationships that attention to create change and increase that potential to be well. I've supported individuals, couples, and families from various walks of life and backgrounds for over 12 years from working with family crises as case management to professional counseling. Are you wanting a better relationship with yourself or to manage stress better? Are you tired of going in circles and ready to have more understanding in your relationships? Then let's get to work!

I am a licensed professional counselor with a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with experience working on a multitude of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting, and couples counseling. I believe in creating a strong, trusting therapeutic environment where people feel comfortable, motivated, and not judged. I use solution-focused techniques to assist in reaching goals and CBT techniques to help with concerns such as negative thought patterns. Every person is different, and you will have your own individualized therapy and plan that is tailored to your needs. I really enjoy helping others explore their own strengths, and I understand that sometimes it can be hard to put things into perspective. Sometimes that outside, non-judgmental assistance is what someone needs to get back on track or on a better track.

My focus is on a variety of life issues that impede the unique potential of the individual. These include substance abuse and dependency, Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, depression, and trauma as well as major life events that happen to us all. I works with people from all walks of life including children, couples, and adults. Person centered counseling is not a platform on which one seeks advice or fears being judged, as if “under the microscope”. Rather it is a collaborative conversation based on unconditional positive regard, in which counselor and client journey together towards the client’s realization of meaning and goals.

Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted by overthinking, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Maybe your mind feels anxious, scattered, or weighed down by overthinking. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to carry it all by yourself. I help adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, or major life transitions find clarity, confidence, and a greater sense of calm. 🌱 I bring both compassion and structure to therapy. Clients describe me as warm, approachable, and practical—someone who listens deeply, helps them feel understood, and offers clear guidance for moving forward. 🌱 As a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP) and Certified Mindfulness-Informed Professional (CMIP), I specialize in evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and strengths-based therapy. These methods give us a flexible toolkit we can tailor to your needs—whether you want to quiet racing thoughts, improve focus and organization, or navigate a life change with more confidence. 🌱 I believe therapy works best when it feels both supportive and practical: a place where you feel truly heard, while also discovering new perspectives and strategies that create lasting change. My goal is to meet you where you are, honor your strengths, and walk with you as you build the life you want.

My approach to therapy is based on my belief that every person has inherent value and is a gift to the world. Throughout our lives we encounter experiences and relationships that can fracture our sense of self and disconnect us from what we need. I believe therapy is a way to help you get back into harmony with yourself – to learn to listen to what your mind and heart are telling you and to ground yourself in the value you were born with. I would be honored to be a person helping you to do this. I have over 9 years of experience in the mental health field where I have spent my time building my skill and growing my knowledge. I graduated from the University of Cincinnati in 2016 and have worked in a variety of settings since, including community based centers. In my 9 years I have focused on specializing in helping people work through traumas (PTSD and Complex Trauma), anxiety and grief. I am EMDR trained, which is just one of the modalities I can use to help address symptoms, especially PTSD. My experience and trainings have helped me to provide excellent care to those individuals I've worked with, and I love what I do.

Hi, I’m Lisa. You know that cartoon of the little dog at the kitchen table sipping coffee while the house burns around him? Is that you? Have you been saying, “This is fine, this is OK” for way too long? Whether you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or overwhelming stress; if something happened to you that’s making life hurt; if you feel your house is on fire and it’s just not “fine” anymore – I am here to listen and to help. You will find in me warmth, compassion, and an ability to truly listen until you know you’ve been understood. I will also bring to you everything I have learned in over 7 years of working with clients who experience trauma, depression, and anxiety. Together, we will explore where you’re coming from, set our sights on where you’d like to go, and then build a plan to get you there. We will use evidence-based practices to strengthen what’s already strong in you, heal what hurts, and create new ways to thrive. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but I’m about as frightening as a nerdy baby duck. Whatever you’ve been dealing with, we’ve got it. Together, we’ll work me out of a job. You are strong enough, you are smart enough, and my favorite moment is when my clients say, “Yeah, I think I’m good now.”

Every client is unique and is facing their own distinctive challenges. Therefore each treatment plan should be personalized and individualized. An ideal client is one who comes to counseling with an open mind and is ready to try new approaches and coping skills. Each person will benefit differently from a wide variety of approaches. Together we can and will find the right strategies that work best for you. There is not a "normal" or "standard" cookie-cutter path. It is a journey! I have experience working with issues as grief, anxiety, anger, mood, neurological, trauma, relationship issues, substance use disorders, and more. I am dually independently licensed and passionate about providing the utmost quality of services to people struggling with mental health, substance use disorders and dual diagnoses. I have over 10 years of practice, including a wide array of experience, working with clients of all age groups individually, with couples and in groups. The therapeutic environment is a safe place for clients and their families to experience their vulnerabilities while sharing their stories. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential, EMDR, and Person-Centered treatment interventions and I have found that when using these interventions, people begin to realize the strength to overcome challenges.

Welcome, I’m Elaine a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), based in North Carolina, I’m also licensed to practice in Ohio and South Carolina. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment. I believe that counseling should be a conversation in a private, peaceful setting where you can explore issues that are impacting your life.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by chronic stress? Do you find yourself caught in unsatisfying relationships, caregiving roles, or patterns of behavior that no longer serve you? I believe that change is possible—and that you already have the inner strength needed to make it happen. Together, we can uncover your innate resources and develop the tools you need to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and renewed purpose. As a licensed therapist with over 30 years of experience, I offer a compassionate and collaborative approach. My clinical background includes working with children, adolescents, and adults in areas such as trauma, emotional dysregulation, impulse control, and chronic stress. I also have expertise in adoption-related issues and self-harming behaviors. Today, my focus is on helping adults build resilience and embrace meaningful growth. I earned my PhD in Social Welfare from Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisory designation in Ohio. Beyond my work as a clinician, I have extensive experience as a scholar, published author, and administrator, which enriches my ability to support my clients with both depth and practicality. My ideal client is someone who is ready to embrace change, deepen their self-awareness, and commit to their personal growth. Let’s work together to transform old patterns into opportunities for joy, balance, and fulfillment. If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out—I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
