Anxiety & Sleeplessness Fear, insomnia, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through counseling and treatment, we work towards increasing sleep time, decreasing panic or anxiety attacks or symptoms, fully understanding where overwhelming emotions stem from, and how to move towards being your best self. Relationships Relationship counseling can be beneficial to couples who are looking to strengthen their emotional connection, in all stages of their relationship. Therapy sessions are held with both partners and is a supportive place to discuss issues and solutions to better strengthen your relationship. Trauma and Healing Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger after post-traumatic events. We work together through these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.

Hi, I'm Natalie. I'm a licensed clinical social worker who trained at the University of Pittsburgh. I am less interested in labels or "shoulds" and more interested in helping you understand what's actually going on in your life... and what might help you move forward with more steadiness and self-trust. We could fancy that up by saying I operate from a compassion-focused, client-centered perspective with a strong harm reduction lens -- but I kind of like my phrasing better! I work with people who want support around substance use; trauma, including complex or developmental trauma; relationship patterns; family-of-origin dynamics; and personal growth during times of transition. My approach is collaborative, non-judgmental, and grounded in evidence-based practices (even if our conversations feel more human than clinical!). I've worked with folks from all walks of life, in a wide array of environments - typical outpatient offices, online, and even outdoors with unhoused communities. I also have a decade of specialized training and experience working with Veterans. So whether you've worn a uniform or not, walked into a therapy office or have never spoken to a therapist before, are a pro at tele-therapy or just trying it out for the first time, I'm probably a pretty good fit for you!

Hi there, I'm Anna! I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Cincinnati, Ohio. I've been in practice for 10 years. I became interested in this profession because of my own battles with mental health. There have been times that I've been debilitated to the point where I was unable to function, and lived through paralyzing fear, trauma, crippling depression, and the belief that I would never be able to live a fulfilling life. Thanks to the therapy I received to overcome these obstacles, I got my Bachelor's & Master's Degrees at Marshall University. Throughout my career I've worked with individuals struggling with addiction, OCD, depression, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, mood disorders, life changes, and trauma. I strive to help anyone struggling with their mental health, an obstacle, difficult emotions, or painful experience to find fulfillment, peace, and functionality in their lives. I know that this world is imperfect, ever-changing, and hard to navigate. I provide unconditional positive regard, empathy, validation, a safe space, and most importantly, solutions. I'd love to provide you with the light you need to see a path forward - it's there! *Note: I do not provide ESA (emotional support animal) letters, as this requires specialized training. I am also not accepting couples.*

It is such a gift to be trusted by clients and to work together with a sense of safety. I act as a catalyst for change, growth and transformation. I deeply believe I was born to follow my dream of helping others live with the ability to fulfill their dreams. I provide individual psychotherapy for adults. I specialize in lesbian/ gay/bisexual/transgender issues, family/interpersonal relationships, chronic/ terminal illnesses, generalized anxiety disorders, bipolar, depression, and trauma. At age 24, I was faced with my own mortality which propelled me on a personal journey of healing and self-discovery. As a result, I am grateful to live each day to the fullest, cherishing every moment. I integrate holistic healing modalities that focus on the mind-body connection including relaxation/stress reduction techniques, guided imagery, visualization, meditation, somatic practices, incorporating polyvagal theory, QiGong, Reiki, pet therapy, creative arts, and movement techniques. For me, the therapeutic process is a learning process, one of exploration and healing. The client is the expert in his/her/their experience. I am here to guide you, to help you reach your goals, and to live a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Hi, I’m Marie — a therapist who believes that change is always possible, no matter where you are in life. My goal is to help you feel better emotionally, think more clearly, and move toward a future that feels fulfilling and peaceful. In our sessions, we’ll work together to understand what’s been holding you back and find practical ways to move forward. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you notice how your thoughts affect your emotions and actions—and teach you tools to shift negative thinking. I also use a solution-focused approach, which means we’ll focus on your strengths, celebrate what’s working, and create small, realistic steps that bring real progress. I often work with adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or major life changes—like adjusting after a loss, a new diagnosis, or changes that come with getting older. My approach is supportive and empowering. I want you to feel heard, encouraged, and equipped with the tools to handle life’s challenges with more confidence and hope.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe, affirming space where you can be your authentic self without judgement. I specialize in navigating burnout, relationships, anxiety, or life transitions. My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, which means I'll meet you where you are and support you in meeting your goals. Together, we'll focus on your strengths, explore what's meaningful to you, and help you move forward feeling more grounded and empowered. I use CBT to teach people to challenge your negative thought patterns and change their responses. It is an effective therapy for many mental health conditions as well as managing difficult life experiences.

I have worked for several years to support clients in different phases of life from adolescence, high school, emergency psychiatric admission as well as outpatient services. I often work with clients who have a history of complex trauma and/or loss. I know firsthand that the dark days can feel unbearable, but there are better days ahead. I like to say that I can take clients from "surviving" to "thriving".

I graduated with a M. Ed with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling in 2012, have been an LPC since 2013. I received my Independent Chemical Dependency License in 2021 and my Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in 2025. I draw from multiple theoretical approaches and techniques, tailoring your treatment plan to your needs by selecting the most effective methods from various therapies, rather than strictly adhering to one specific school of thought.

Thank you for stopping on my profile. I’m a simple person. As a therapist, I treasure every interaction. Most of my experience as a licensed counselor and working in mental and behavioral health has been working with children and adolescents - particularly those struggling to regulate emotions and manage behaviors. I believe the difference between working with young people versus people of any age is just stage of life. People develop over time but maturity -in itself- does not resolve impact from the ‘stuff’ they experience and carry throughout their lifetime. With that said, I don’t feel inclined to focus only on young people because at one point we were all young. In therapy, I’m a person who believes in the power of relationships. I tend to lean more heavily into the power of the connection than the style of treatment used. I’d be honored to meet you and get to know you but the bigger satisfaction in me would be knowing you found your fit. I wish you the best in your search.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Ohio rather than a city like Columbus?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Ohio. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Ohio from Cincinnati to Cleveland! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Ohio.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
